On a more specific level, can't tell you how glad I am to hear your words: "rant away" and "it's helping me sort..."
I am dizzy with relief at just being able to TALK about this. Your words are so tremendously validating to me, I have tears rolling down my cheeks.

I am with you on that. I guess it is what I am thinking others think about me, but that does not really matter, not in my life. Anyone that has ever thought bad things about my past behavior is no longer on my life.
The older I get the less I believe in the whole concept of being a slut. I even defend other women that are shamed for their sexual behavior. I am not sure why it is anyone's business.
It really does help. No one ever talks about it on this forum, people just skip right over it, making me feel like I am seriously weird or something LOL. Supposedly 20-80% of bipolar people experience hypersexuality. I am really excited to see my NP, I really need to bring this up with her.
Do you have any special treatment or anything related to this Intent?
