HI,I have been diagnosed since I was 13. I have never took my meds correctly, I was not on meds while doing this. I preferred to medicate myself with liquor. I can tell you as long as I stay clear of liquor, I'm ok. I am currently going through therapy again, I'm very happy with my therapist, and he is very good looking.LOL, My husband was destroyed for a while, I was going to move out, but, he is a determined man, thank goodness!! Almost 19 yrs later. It is my opinion only, that hyper sexuality is common in bipolar community. Your not alone, I'll listen, but!! You must know, I am NOT a DR!! Just an opinionated woman, much love...
