    To me while I am hypersexual it's almost like an out of body experience. My actions are carried out without reason or coherent thought process.
    On one occasion I "came to my senses" and was able to rationalize what was happening, stopping the encounter. Most of the time damage is done before I am able (or willing) of admitting hypersexual behavior. I deal with a lot of guilt after the fact. The consequences are often life altering, and I know in my heart that in a rational mindset I would never be so selfish.
    I wish this topic was discussed more. For a long time I had been unaware that this was a problem.

      snI caught my husband, by accident. It has devastated me. He is now medicated but I am still having such a hard time getting over it. I KNOW he has a mental health issue but it doesn't help me heart.

    I thought it was just a phase that you grow out of it you don't. It's a serious disorder that not only can harm yourself others as well un planned pregnancy and sti. Putting yourself in danger could get rapped beaten up break up of relationships. It's good that you are speaking about it let's hope this gets less embarrassing to talk about

    Take the Medication and be tired with no motivation and side-effects or don't take the medicine and be symptomatic but have lots of energy to complete work. It's a lose-lose situation everytime.

    i never knew what hypersexuality was until my therapist mentioned it and said they'll be testing me for bipolar disorder soon.. she said thats often one of the first signs (if not the first)

    This has helped me understand at some point what my bf currently goes through. He broke up with me in sept then after almost six mos I have him
    Another chance, I’m February we won me over with flowers. I have in but waking up at 2am regularly becaue of his mania soon after he was getting gmail notifications at all hours. I knew he started to hookup again or chatting with women. He broke up with me again this Monday morning used an excuse about a joke I made that hurt his feels to walk out of our relationship. Deep down I know it’s because I brought up how uncomfortable I am
    Woth the phone notifications again. I know he’s back at hookups. He’s bipolar 1 and has been in therapy for close to 20 years.
