I find this strange, but maybe it isn't. I find that when I am stressing myself out sometimes, I get horny for no reason. This is no joke. Does anyone else experience this?

I am almost always horny unless depressed

Very often sex is a stress relief for many. Not that weird of a thing.

I'm usually horny, because I'm a guy. But...When I'm stressed sometimes, it seems like i'm unusually horny. And for no reason. I don't even have to think about sex, and then I want it.

BP2 has me in a state of hypersexuality at all times, but anythingand any mood that has a strong effect on me, including anxiety (which is how stress affects me) increases it. Everything triggers it. Even anger!!

I get what you are saying Zack and alot of it really does have to do with the chemicals that are released in our brain when we are stressed. Everyone is different in the way that they respond. This is just the way you respond to the chemicals released with stress. It becomes a problem if you force it on others or step outside of a relationship that is otherwise okay. If you can control your actions with it, then it is healthy and you should be happy that it isnt the other way around. For some, with bipolar disorder, sex is at the bottom of the list of desires. For others, the top of the list of desires. Hugs

I'm trying to exercise daily. I was doing fairly well until I sprained my ankle 2 weeks ago but now I'm getting back on the horse. Today I walked over a mile with my arm weights that are about 22lbs total. I was out of shape and it was hard on my arms. I also did my 30 situps. I'm also going to drink a lot of water and try to eat healthy. I do tend to have a sweet tooth but I'm cutting...
