hypersexuality....what can i say,everything that i have read about it all seem to be looking at it from a loved ones piont of view not necessarilly the side of the person experiencing this.
i didnt realise that it was what i was doing until and old friend had pointed it out to me...it isnt nice or pleasant and leaves me angered ashamed,dirty and unpleasant.....but at the time...woohoo! its fanatstic.
its the same feeling as when you have too much energy and cant do enough to satisfy it.......except it is huge amounts of sexually activity that is need and the frustration doesnt get satisfied,at least not for long.
its unsafe when you are grabbing at anyone because it is driving you mad,you dont think about the what if's...you just think dont stop!
i sadly do this and after the mania of hypersexuality has passed it feel like the lowest of the low,unclear,disgusting.....
everyone is willing to discuss how this makes others feel...but what about us poor sods that live like and crave that intimate attention to the piont of distracting our every thought.
i know its not a subject many want to discuss.........i dont have a partner,so maybe the only person i am hurting is myself

when I'm manic I want sex all the time it's all I think about day and night, drives my girlfriend crazy but I will never cheat on my girlfriend so I don't go out to find it somewhere else if she is not in the mood, that is OK with me. But when I'm like that sex is like a drug can't get enough of it.  lol

I used to suffer with hypersexuality, but since I started taking meds I have no problem except that I can't get any.

erm, yes i was hypersexual quite a lot of the time. 

i would "date" more than 2 guys at the time,  for that reason alone at one period in time. 

when i was married it was the worst, because i found quite a lot of different men attractive... and i can say that, when my marriage was falling apart, i did cheat.  it's no big secret, my husband knew it when i was doing it... 

not that i'm proud of it, because i WAS still married.

almost 9 years later, i've had a few boyfriends, one serious... all of them lied to me and were what i considered to be somewhat abusive and controlling. 

i guess i deserve whatever i got after the cheating.

these days i couldn't care less about men at all... i'm not interested in a relationship and am happy ALONE!!!  that may change but i doubt it.

i think the hypersexuality is part and parcel of the illness in that we feel EVERYTHING to the extreme including sexuality. i think whether we act out has more to do with the partners we are with their receptivity and how our relationships are. it's a very real problem and like Jane said i think perhaps the treatment of the right drugs makes  a lot of difference. i didn't experience any of effects while on seroquel but once i went off of it...ok i can't talk about this subject...k

I remember hypersexuality ..... now I feel like a eunuch.  I seem to think about it, but no real interest. Those damn side effects.

Ramji...are you thinking about me? OK we are all BP so I guess I really don't need to go there...JK...
K.. I so agree with you on the feeling things more deeply than others. I always thought that noone else understood that part of me. It's good to know that you do.

jmiefish...I tell my daughter who is 16, that I know is sexually active that I just want her to please remember to make sure that she respects herself, and that is the advice I am giving to you. Don't give yourself up to somone that does not respect you. Make sure you understand what respect is. Don't let anyone treat you in any way that doesn't make you feel like a princess, because that's what every young lady should be, escecially to someone you are going to have sex with. I read on another post that your grandmother doesn't know that your having sex. Has she asked I frequently ask my daughter questions that I wonder about. If she hasn't asked, then why would she expect you to tell her. I think that if she asks, you should tell her the truth. Just asking you the question means that she is concerned about your well-being and that she suspects that it is happening, so why not be truthful? Maybe she'll be upset for a few days, so what...But like I said, If she hasn't asked, you have no reason to tell her.

she hasnt asked but talking about sex in my family is like a big no-no.. im not sure why but nobody ever talks about it.. i believe she knows but just doesnt ask. so who knows? and i havent told her about the BC thing yet because i dont know how to tell her but i think i might just leave it up to the therapist to tell her... but then i think it would be better if i did too.. i dunno =/

thank you though high!
