We use FAB as a cure for my hypersexuality stages when I'm in mania (otherwise I would fuck literary fuck the milkman in the morning) and by using FAB my hubby is fully involved and loves all the sex also (rather than behind his back like before I was diagnosed that almost caused our break up) when not in mania I've no interest in sex what so ever , delete our profile and think I'm not naughty 
Anyone else a bipolar and use FAB in this super way? |

Hyper sexuality is a well recognised phenonenom in bipolar as you say, I'd say fab with her husband being part of it is definitely a way safer way of dealing with those feelings than sometimes happens with single people and a lot more risky encounters |

I had a friend with bipolar....my god she used to swing from one extreme to the other.....she had a boyfriend (I was technically "just a friend") but there were some weeks when she would damn near rape me....others when you couldn't even communicate with her....I feel for your predicament, but you do seem to have found a coping mechanism...so well done. |

Are you prescribed Lithium by your consultant ( as many gps don't want to do anything more than scratch the surface of mental health ) it's the best drug for coping and balancing out the lows ! Mental health is my occupation |

"I wouldn't feel comfortable exploiting someone's mental health.
I agree ..."
If a person has hyper sexuality , and the only means of dealing with it is to have sex , then why would you have an issue with that ?

Hypersexuality is a symptom in this case, where if the OP were in normal conditions, it wouldn't be their choice. I wouldn't feel comfortable supporting them in it. |

So they should go without ?
Not sure that's fair to be honest |

Eh, other people can feel differently. To me, it's no different to handing someone a razor to help them self harm in periods of low mood. If hypersexuality were their norm, it'd be different. Their mania just clearly isn't under control. |

I admit I have absolutely no experience of this, but is it not better to balance out the periods of highs and lows with meds. Rather than feed the highs?
Would this behaviour make the come down from the highs more difficult? |

I don't understand why people post comments like this. My comment would not change, despite the gender. |

I agree with this, i have no experience, medical or otherwise, but would think with medicine breakthroughs as we have today, balancing out the periods would be a wiser move rather than fuelling the highs |

Not formally diagnosed but I have extreme periods of hypersexuality and yes I use fab as a coping mechanism for what I term the crazy. I'm trying to get myself under control with the help of a good friend and have a different approach than a year ago. I don't bother deleting my profile either anymore, I just hide it to save having to restart my veris and block list again, it's too much hassle! Feel free to pm me op x |

I don't think anyone would argue, or has done in this thread, that fab is an alternative to taking medications or seeking professional advice
But if despite doing everything correctly there are periods of these symptoms then being on here with a partner is a reasonable and safe way of expressing those symptoms |

I have no experience of this and not a doctor or therapist. I feel as long as their taking their meds, seeking regular medical help and have support from partner so safe there's no harm in it .there are a lot worse ways she could use .really until it effects us or a loved one ,no one really knows the best action to take as all different |

Some have mentioned feeding the mania. I feel this implies the mania is being exacerbated. Is this so or is this just dealing with a symptom? I'm swaying towards the latter. |

My friend was on lithium for a time to help with her bi polar
She's found alternative ways to manage thaan using the drug though because she became a zombie (her words)
Medication does help some, but for others it isn't an answer. |

I have autism, borderline personality disorder and depression, and quite frequent spells of hypersexuality as a result! I find that swinging really helps, although I do have spells of going quiet due to the depression. |

Nor would I BUT its a good coping mechanism for both of them. She's getting what she needs while he enjoys this side of her personality, while also keeping her safe. We shouldn't judge them as we're outsiders n don't know the full extent of their story. I'm sure it's not as straight forward as the OP has made it sound!
Well done OP for sharing something that would normally be a taboo subject.
I admire your strength and honesty.

I am not bipolar, however I know a fair bit about it and I do have slightly manic periods, often after stress etc when I don't sleep etc and become literally obsessed with sex, it has caused issues in the past when I've ended up having sex with very inappropriate people, so for me swinging is a great outlet for satisfying that urge. I don't suffer from lows, but do kind of come back down to a slightly more rational sex drive when less stressed etc |

Having suffered hypersexuality in the past I would say this is one of the safer ways of dealing with it.
Maybe if the internet was around when I was suffering I wouldn't have put myself in such dangerous situations

Before this Site it cost me my Ex-GF who I did love and I do have some days where I really struggle and can't get a grip sometimes. Honestly I masterbate a lot to help cope and it doesn't help I don't sleep much so I feel anyone else in a similar situation that's why I have a lot of respect for couples and singles on here, as for me IF I ever do get a meet it is for fun and a means to a end not to ruin someone/someone's personal life. |

This has been an interesting thread .
It seems that it's not a unique situation , and that those who actually suffer it do find swinging helps .
And that there are those who know nothing about it , who like to throw their opinions like how they wouldn't want to fuel a disorder ....
Personally I value the opinions of those who have experience of it .

How could you possibly know I know nothing about the disorder? Or that I haven't experienced it?
You shouldn't undermine when you don't know. |

I had an ex I think was like this, she could get that desperate she would ride the gear knob in her car, when horny and there were no guys. We split recently but I suspect I wasn't the only one she was fucking |

It's good to see a healthy discussion about hyper sexuality , it's often been ridiculed but can be a real curse as one of the ladies previously mentioned.
I'm not a pharmacist however I am a therapist and heard that lithium does help
It sounds like you are coping with it with the help and support of your husband , it can be ruinous to relationships, so we'll done for working together to cope with it |

I certainly don't feel I am undermining anyone .
If you have the condition , I respect your opinion that fuelling the condition is indeed like offering razor blades to a vulnerable person . You would know far better than me in that instance .
Maybe it's an extreme example , but still valid given that you can use it if you've felt it .

Yes, I'm exactly the same, it's a manic thing then boom gone , I delete the account until it starts all over, it's a cycle I sometimes feel ashamed of |

I know exactly what you mean. My sex drive is so high that if I don't cum every few hours it gets painful and I get easily distracted.
This site is better than the medication they recommended. |

My point is that you don't know if I've experienced bipolar or if I suffer from it, yet because my opinion is different, you've disregarded me as knowing nothing and having had no experience.
We can have differing opinions, but it's wrong for you to say I know nothing and to say I've not experienced bipolar when you don't know. |

No you're right, it's not important. It's still silly to be intentionally misinformed, and it's rude to state others know nothing. |

I was on lithium during my period of hypersexuality. My period lasted about three years, I was already on lithium when it started, I've been ill since I was 15 and although I'd say I've always been lively sexually its the only period of my life I've suffered hypersexuality I don't k ow what was the trigger and I can't actually pinpoint when it ended.
It's about 16 years since my three year episode in that time they changed me from lithium to sodium valperate and I don't know if I would of had another episode or not but haven't had one at all on sodium valperate (I'm on other stuff as well but that was the major change over) |
