Population\u2010based data indicate that ~8.6% of US adults experience distress related to difficulty controlling sexual urges, feelings, and behaviors, while large international screening studies suggest that ~5% of individuals may be at high risk for CSBD, yet only a minority seek treatment. Diagnostic classification remains challenging in early or evolving presentations and in patients with complex psychiatric and neurodevelopmental comorbidities. The International Classification of Diseases, 11\n                    <jats:sup>th<\/jats:sup>\n                    Revision (ICD\u201011) requires a 6\u2010month symptom duration for formal diagnosis and specifies exclusion when symptoms are better explained by another mental disorder, substance use, or medication effects. Here we describe a man in his 20\u2009s with bipolar I disorder, attention\u2010deficit\/hyperactivity disorder, anxiety, and intellectual developmental disorder (IDD), along with medical comorbidities, who was hospitalized for severe intrusive sexual thoughts associated with distress and safety concerns. Phenomenology suggested overlap between obsessive\u2013compulsive disorder (OCD) with sexual obsessions and an emerging CSBD\u2010like syndrome, with ego\u2010dystonic intrusive cognitions alongside strong gratification\u2010driven urges and restraint primarily driven by anticipated negative consequences. Given symptom severity and imminent risk of behavioral enactment, the presentation was conceptualized as an early CSBD\u2010like syndrome despite not meeting the ICD\u201011 duration criterion. Symptoms remained acutely refractory despite multiple psychotropic optimizations; the most temporally associated improvement occurred after initiation of naltrexone, with marked improvement within 5 days and resolution of intrusive sexual thoughts by hospital day 16. Although concurrent medication changes preclude attribution to naltrexone monotherapy, the rapid response supports further investigation of reward\u2010 and impulse\u2010targeted interventions for severe subthreshold presentations and highlights the need for clearer diagnostic frameworks and evidence\u2010based guidance for acute management of diagnostically ambiguous compulsive sexual and sexual obsessive syndromes.\n
