When My fiancé is in a hyper manic phase one of the only ways to relax her is with sex which I have recently found out.. She is bp2 & a runner,she has NEVER even thought about looking else where..it toll jet long enough to let me get close to her,we've been together 3 years,& it took over 6 months for her to even think about letting herself get close to me..she hates males, I sometimes wonder how the hell I managed to get so close..she is a TOTALY different girl toward me, any other males she won't even acknowledge..when she goes on a hyper manic stage & runs,"b.t.w. she runs from herself may I add" she worries me sick because she is so timid & she has been hurt in the past for no reason of her own..hence why she hates males..

am I the only one who doesn't have the hypersexual side?
I always used my lack of hyper sexualization as the "proof" that I wasn't BP. It's up there with the myth of chemical dependency and I really wanted to believe I wasn't BP because I was neither hyper sexual or chemically dependent. Instead I write tons mostly about nature, trees and saving the world from humans who would destroy earth. I also read a lot of ancient literature and write poetry. I used to take part in a lot of organizations for saving earth and protests.

You are not the only one.

You know you said you wanted to believe to that you weren't bp, well my fiancé is going through that right now, she is really struggling to accept it.. How can I help her come to terms with it if you don't mind me asking you? Iv been told that's half the problem if you can't accept it, is that right?

The first thing that helped was a therapist who didn't try to force me to accept it, the second thing was quitting the antidepressants that messed me up more. You can not force anyone to accept anything, the more people try to push it the stronger the resistance, at least in my case. There is also dealing with the natural consequences of behavior.

Your right there, iv taken a back seat now & the change in her is amazing..she is asking me how can she accept it though & I don't know what to say to her except all you can do is take it day by day & I'll be here for you anytime you need me..she was pushing me away, since iv backed off she is coming to me more & opening up to me like she used to .
