Before I got married I always wanted sex. After a couple of years of marriage I hated it but I really think it had to do with marital problems that never got solved. During the last ten years of the marriage he didn't initiate it so we didn't have it since I didn't want it. Now when I go hypomanic the sex cravings are the easiest way for me to tell I am hypomanic. I take paxil which should have the opposite effect on my sex drive. I don't want to date because I don't want to end up in bed with someone.
