Sex drive....

by scochran, Sep 12, 2009 03:10AM
I was wondering if anyone else Bipolar has an increased sex drive when manic/hypomanic.  This past episode (currently hypomanic), was the first time I have ever experienced this.  I get to the point where sex is all I can think about.  I know that hypersexuality can be one of the symptoms of mania.  I have other symptoms, such as increased speed of thoughts, inability to concentrate, decreased need for sleep, euphoria, irritability, and anxiety just to name a few.

Yes this is very common in bipolar. Many people experience it, myself included and I believe there are at least two other threads about it.
