Because I"m so horny, I want sex myself. But I don't want the consequences. The more I get the more want, and it's really a problem. I'm not the person I want to be, I'm basically a hornball. I'm trying to avoid the guys just out for sex, because I ultimately want a relationship. But in weak moments even they sound good. Should I mention this problem to my doctor, I'm normally able to abstain for long periods but lately I just can't seem to.

Hi Aviza!
I see that you lost your son ten years ago - my condolences. You mention that normally you are able to abstain when you want to, but as of late you can't seem to. You also are bipolar with psychosis and are taking Latuda. You might be on the elevated side now, and Latuda might be contributing to it, as it is generally working well for the depressive phase only but not for manic. So, yes, I would mention it to your doctor. I also hope you eventually settle into a relationship, because this is what you desire. __________________ Bipolar I w/Psychotic features Zyprexa Zydis 5 mg Gabapentin 1200 mg Melatonin 10 mg Levoxyl 75 mcg (because I took Lithium in the past) past medications: Depakote, Lamictal, Lithium, Seroquel, Trazodone, Risperdal, Cogentin, Remerol, Prozac, Amitriptyline, Ambien, Lorazepam, Klonopin, Saphris, Trileptal, Clozapine and Clozapine+Wellbutrin, Topamax |

What about lots of self pleasure daily and especially before you meet a guy from whatever dating site you use out for coffee or whatever in a public place and absolutely do not let them know where you live nor go to there place , they are strangers you need to get to know someone before you put yourself at risk.
Hyper sexually is a problem for many people with Bipolar, since it’s possibly going to put you in a dangerous situation you need to let your Pdoc know. Always always use a condom, no matter what. You don’t need an STD or HIV Be safe __________________ Helping others gets me out of my own head ~ |

Been being hyper sexual and using condoms now. But even guy I held off got some next time I saw him and wasn't attracted to him but sex was good. Other guy I was attracted to finally had sex and well it was alright. One guy asked me to be his girlfriend but I'm not ready to commit. Have two dates scheduled this week. And plan to have sex on both. But one was a 3rd date. Longest I've lasted.

My ALS worker has brought me back from wildness. She says have sex but just with one guy my sex guy, than continue to date and weed out guys without having sex with them, clear headed. My sex guy is younger and can really meet my sex needs. Whenever I call he's willing to come and he's cute listens to direction. We use condoms.
She says sex isn't bad just control your impulses not doing so is bad. __________________ Son: 14, 12/15/2009 R.I.P. Daughter: 20 Diagnosis: Bipolar with Psychosis. Latuda 100 mgs. |

Still struggling in this area. Had a date last night turned into sex he basically told me what we were going to do despite myself I complied. I just don't know what's wrong with me. I wasn't horny he said he was coming over put on a dress dim the lights. I did everything he asked me to do. And he had his way with me. Several times. I've become submissive, I never used to be has to bv e a med thing. But i can't seem to get normal.
