    I’m ADHD and I’m bipolar. I found sexuality in my teens and found it was a type of fake panacea for my mental problems I went through as a teen. It made me comforted and made me not think about my troubles. The hyper sexuality came later in my life and boy did it cause me problems later in life. It turned into an addiction and got me into some serious trouble. I didn’t know how to control it. It controlled me. That’s when it became scary.

    I truly appreciate you sharing this important topic....I have experienced hyper sexuality, yet I believe it was due to being sexualized at a very young age. Focusing specifically on BPD is extremely helpful to me as I've been somewhat ignorant to the unique challenges that those with BPD experience. Knowledge is power and equates with compassion and understanding. Thank you for your service :)

      Nothing wrong with it, if it felt good to you. Please read my comment.

      You mean the hyper sexuality....agreed...it felt good, and at the same time, I wasn't able to connect on a more intimate level...I seek more of a balance for myself right now because it also interfered with my ability to focus. Also, I was a widow with young children and I was so focused on the sex, I felt they were somewhat neglected, so I shut it all down for a while and did my best to focus on my own healing and the healing of my family. Every situation is different, yet I do agree, that it is all simply an experience and there's no right or wrong.@@fernando.alvarez.123

    My daughter has bipolar 1 . She was diagnosed at 3 yrs ago. She always dresses like (very professional, showing absolutely nothing, covers head to toe. Honestly I always felt like she never had sex appeal) When she becomes manic, she dresses so provocatively.(This is the first sign for me) I’ve been trying really hard to pay attention to all her symptoms for she becomes manic) Her sex appeal goes from 0 to 100! But it’s scary because it’s winter and she’ll wear barely nothing, once she wanted to go out with a mini skirt and the skirt was literally in the middle of her cheeks with her underwear showing. I had to stop her! This has been the most heart wrenching experience for me. She talks about sex all the time. Absolutely no filter near me. ( at baseline, she would never) Once she comes out of it, she’s severely depressed for about 2 wks then she becomes her innocent introverted self again. I let her bring up any feelings she has about going through the traumatic event. Then we talk about it :( This is just part of what she faces.
    As a parent you have to have so much patience and control. Sometimes it’s so hard!
    Mental illness is real! Please be nice to everyone you never know what they’re facing.

    Bipolar disorder should be analyzed from the subconscious point of view not from the shallow and fragmented values of the western society.

    What about the sexuality of women with mutations in the serotonin system genes that result in low serotonin and COMT mutations at the same time? A chinese study has prooven that female animals with genetic variants that result in serotonin deficiency during the critical period when the brains is developing tend to mate with other females instead of males and people with COMT gene mutations have a hard time removing dopamine epinefrine and sexual hormones that can defeminise the developing brain

    I went from a nympho to zero desire on my bipolar medicine. Which is good because it was getting rough after my divorce. And i aint into this modern dating world. They say life has a way of balancing out. Bipolar is such a dark horrible disease but at least the sex was great. Only good thing i can say for it

      Meaningless sex should never be considered great. Physical satisfaction and gratification should not be the measure....its not equal to moral, ethical, or righteous behavior.

    I realise that the only way hypersexuality was a subject of worry in my life, was society and people's judgement on my sexual life. it has never bothered any areas of my life otherwise...

    Having a low sex drive saved me. I get bored after awhile. I have been celebrate for decades. But it suits me and is emotional sobriety for me. I am not bipolar, but Do have periods of depression.

    Good content. I was hoping to learn that the medical school moves away from the pill pushers doctrine.
    I had "bp", good thing that I never knew about it.
    What you believe is true, for you only. I rarely delegate my health to others; I am almost 60, unvaccinated, in decent health, evolving every day, and I don't live by the rules that don't make sense to me.
    One of people I coach had deep depression, lots of high sex drive episodes followed by mood lows, no period for ten years. Now she is much better without medication, because she had no idea what BP is. Just re-programming the emotions set that was altered during childhood trauma.
    Check the "daddy issue" in many ladies, but can be due to a batch mom as well. Emotional imbalances and programming. No pills needed, but lots of work

      My mania can last years. And anything can trigger it. Whether I get mad, happy, stressed, if I have flashbacks. Manic was my normal. But if I experience any of those things. I'm probably going to go into mania

    Your videos are so inspiring,!:As someone with symptoms to worry about many things (example: :|:, specifically visual occultations created by editing , can be hard). can be very worrying.. Its amazing work, though lighting the right things can be hard, as well as keeping holes that should be transparent, so.)

    Sex is not equal sex.
    Sex might be a tool for getting company, entertainment, it might include going to bed with someone without having necessarily penetration!
    All behaviors might be related and unrelated to depression, OCD and bipolar disorder!
    We all come from different backgrounds, cultures and have particular current life situations which might explain a particular behavior.
    Also, hypersexuality exists in some phases (ages) of life, a way to explore our boundaries.
    Let's be careful about putting labels and qualifiers to people for being normal humans, not perfect, sometimes down and sometimes up.

      When sex is as casual and random as having a cup of coffee, it is a serious problem for the individuals involved and society at large. They might realize it, but it's a big problem. You cannot casually lay down with anyone. Unconscious bonding occurs. Energies are exchanged. And sometimes demons are exchanged. Demons love to particular in random sex. The more perverted....the better. We are living in Sodom and Gormorrah times. The Bible is very specific on debauchery and God's view on it.

      My ex girlfriend had almost no sex drive, bordering on total asexuality. But I could sometimes get her in the mood for physical intimacy by engaging with her regarding her intellectual interests while massaging her sore feet. Haha. 😅 It's worth a try.
