Read my post on "impulse"...A heightened sex drive CAN be a marker for bipolarisim...not evryone experiences this...But I sure do!
I always thought because I was a woman ,something was REALLY WRONG with me!
Now ,I see many BP women are the same...I got tired of being called a NYMPHO!!

Nylon knickers - a great story dancingd !

People ask me all the time if I have a heightened sex drive, but I have had a pretty high sex drive my whole life--from childhood (no, I wasn't having sex---I was helping myself along) to now. I've never acted out on it--never done it unsafely or with someone that was risky (except for the guy that raped me, but...you know...not really my decision on that one). I know I wasn't bipolar as a child, in fact I was depressed, so I don't consider myself having a heightened sex drive.

yes, this is a symptom- hypersexuality. however, I've heard some meds can increase it, like wellbutrin. Yeah, it can be problematic; like it's fun at first and then you just want it to stop. Also has caused me to act flirtier than I intended and embarrass myself.

btw, prozac helped dampen it and make it less all-consuming, but ssri's can also cause mania, so hard to say...I guess as long as you're not acting destructive, it's not the worst problem to have :)

"a heightened sex drive"

...would that involve the top of wardrobes by any chance ?

LOL,Ronin!

Be even more crazy sex drives when the Right Hand drive versions of Hummers take to the road. Apparently these vehicles sit in a Box on Garage Forecourts like a big Matcbox/Dinky Toy.

With Christmas coming up, I wonder if those kiddies getting one will play more with the Box than the Toy inside ?

Ho Ho Ho

...

iused to even on some meds

now on meds for other stuff and just dont care

Well, sex drive. Lets see. Your a guy with access to the internet. Use your imagination. Just remember use lube to cut out chaffing, cooking oil is not a good idea.

If that dont tickle your fancy, there are stores you can go to for um, products. But internet is free. LOL.

my sex drive is really affected i get frustrated where i get so "gagging" lol....
when im on a high i just cant stop thinknig bout it. xx

when I'm manic drive tends to increase, just not in a good "hubby, let's jump in the bed" sort of way. I don't want a divorce so I keep my impulses under control.

take matters into your own hands.

Watch Sue Johannson. SHE IS AWSOME. She is on, well use to be late sunday nights on Oxygen. But i hear she is on a variety of places. She is this like 80 year old sex lady. She takes all types of questions and gives advice on a whole range of things. And by advice i am also talking about different ways of taking things in your own hands and she does demonstrations. NO SHE IS NOT NEKID, she has Modles, not live modles. VERY INFORMATIVE.
