Anthony Weiner is battling a sexting addiction: mental health experts [View all]

Mayor Bloomberg takes Spanish lessons in his spare time. If he’s elected mayor, Anthony Weiner will have to use some of his to get psychotherapy.

Mental health experts said Wednesday that Weiner's repeated sexting bears some similarities to an addiction — and that he will need counseling for the foreseeable future to prevent a relapse.

That raises the prospect of Weiner having to carve out time for treatment should he win the election.
