Hyper Sexuality and Promiscuity

That just doesn't cut it for me though usually leads me into making poor decisions about it

And with more spoon-feeding from The Free Dictionary:

indiscriminate in the choice of sexual partners.

So carefully selected multiple partners are a far cry from promiscuity.

Ah ok I thought it meant loads a partners. No wonder I scathed when I saw my psych review said I was deemed as being 'promiscuous' lol

This was after what kind of review - were you given tests or did someone speak to you?

My apologies, I dont have that problem, I get an urge, it last a minuet, then Im over it..I'd hate to be in this situation

A review?

Assessment in hosp. Just the usual obs and ward rounds etc

It wasn't just about my sexual business... The general pyschiatric in patient review. Regarding all things

Ahh.... How often do you experience this?

Prob report was the best word to use!!!!!

I know it's kind of hard to admit it ... being unfaithful ... But what do you want? Do you want your marriage to work? It won't work if you can't be faithful, in my experience. Some people do have the open marriages, but it's rare. And if you go cheating, it doesn't help during your next potential depressive phase while you're reflecting on it. And if she finds out it could break her heart and be really hard for her to get over.

You can either try to change your thinking and impulses control, I do believe it's possible to do this, and find satisfaction with wife. Or you can ask for more meds to help impulse control. Is it so bad that you would take meds to control it?

Like I said before, I don't do it anymore. Before I even realised I was Ill I was severely promiscuous and oblivious to consequences. Limited impulse control.

Now I am learning more about myself ive managed to turn it around from promiscuity to hyper sexuality. It's healthier

I experience it mostly when I'm hypomanic

Don't know if its that bad yet but has potentiol to get there

I have to / want to / need to / like to ... masturbate a lot during hypo times. I just did it on the airplane - in the rest room LOL. It's often a bathroom or shower, only place where door locks. Or in my car, lol. I think it's funny. Something I can just smile to myself about later. But I know for some people especially full on manic, it becomes a monster with no satisfaction in sight, even after hours of masturbation.

I'm not sure if I want to call myself promiscuous, no I don't think so.

So you're just kinda fantasizing about doing it? Never mind me if I'm prying, I'm sorry. I'm a little chatty right now.

However itncould be considered risky behaivor right?

I get that a lot.

But think that might be cos of the meds.... Making it harder for me to get there!!!!

lol, I think that's funny too!

[QUOTE=bpinOk;2824347]The quotes misbehaved in your post so I am not 100% sure what you are referring to. If to masturbation, no, it is not a risky behavior, of course.

How about watching porn instead?

Would masterbating on a plane be something you would normally do?

[QUOTE=hamster-bamster;2824359]Risky doing it where you could well get caught tho, I think is what op was getting to? I dunno I'm not sure about that?

No... I'm a little hypo. I think it would be great to become a member of the mile high club someday.

Was it risky? No, door was locked. Just for my entertainment purely. And I was quick about it, no one knew.

I had that prob with prozac, soooo frustrating!!

Yeah ssri's are the worst

I'm on an snri now, and not quite so bad but still not great

How do you broach the subject about sexual dysfunction to ya pysch tho? I'd just clam up. I need an appt where I'm hypo and just blurt it out lol
