Is it normal that i can't help being promiscuous?

I'm 17 years old and I've slept with 16 different guys.. I lost my virginity when I was 15. I know that there are risks to what I'm doing but I feel like it's all worth the risk. I recently had an unexpected miscarriage which devastated me but I've moved past it.. My parents know that I do stuff like this but they hate that I'm like this and honestly, I even hate that I'm like this. Idk what to do with myself. I almost feel like I have an addiction. Is this normal...? And what can I do to fix this?

    "an unexpected miscarriage"?

    PLEASE either go on the pill or/AND get the guy to wear a condom.

    Note: A boy saying this, his 'mates' might say how good of a stud he is.
    The main reason why the 'girl' does not have the same respect is because 1. Its true guys prefer a less 'sluty' girl over a pornqueen, for a relationship! AND the girl has ALL the responsibility. ie Your 'miscarriage' is absolutely devastating and SHOULD be a warning sign for you.

    I think at 17, you should hold onto the last bit of 'child' youth you have, and enjoy life like a teenager! Since you're an adult for about 80years!!!! Ample time THEN to do adult stuff.

    It was a little sentence at the end that interested me. "I almost feel like I have an addiction".

    Maybe you do. And/or maybe you're using sex as validation to bolster your self-image. Because while someone wants to have sex with you, you must be worth something, right? Just one possible theory (and not necessarily the right one).

    Christ Almighty:O! That sure is a big number!

    I personally believe that if people are being safe and healthy about sex, then they should do what they want. Whether you're being healthy or not isn't for me to decide. And I'm not going to try to, because I can't even imagine having had that many partners, so I'm biased. That really is a very crazy number to me, though.
