It is hard to control this hypersexual mood in mania, well I should say it was. Now that I am fully aware of my diagnosis and with the help of my husband I am hoping that I will never have an affair again. It will be hard cause even though I have stepped away from my old life I still sometimes can see that it comes into play. Like I started to notice guys and I feel like they are making eye contact to get my attention. I am really honest with my husband so that we can both be on the look out for any symptoms that can go to either end of the BP. Educating yourself is so important. I have learned so much from here, books, support groups and others who deal with the same diagnosis. If he is serious I am sure with both of you working to keep him stable it can work. I can't say it's easy but with your SO being there to support you it really helps. When I get hypersexual I just tell my husband to give me more love and attention which really helps.
