Does anyone else diagnosed with bipolar disorder seem to have any kind of sexual addictions? I'm just wonderng if this is something that I cope with or if there are other our there with a similar problem. It's almost like Im addicted to sex and the more dirty and "bad" it is, the more I like it. Its really like I get obsessed with a certain person and can't get enough. I dont mean to sound like a slut, Ive talked to the doctor about my problem and I REALLY want to get over this! Anyone else out there in the same boat??

My husband suffers from this & according to his therapist many of the sex addicts he sees are also bipolar. My Husband recently left me & his 4 kids for his latest obsession. I only recently learned that there have been other "relationships" (his words, but they are obsessions) over the years. My advice is to find a therapist that specializes in sex addiction because the others don't really "get it". There is help available and no, you are not a slut or a bad person. You have a real disorder & it can be helped. Good luck to you!

I left my bipolar wife after she cheated on me a 4th time. I read an email she sent to a guy who was "like a drug" to her-her words. So, yes, I believe the two are related. In my wifes case, she traded her loving, devoted husband in for these one (two, three) night stands.

My husband is the same He hasnt fully amdmit that he is bipolar but I just found out about the 4th affair he has had on me and I finally see it may be part of this disorder. I have 3 children and am so torn up as to what to do. I was so greatly to hear someone else is in my situation? I wish you the best of luck andgive yourself a hug from me.

POLARBEAR:

If you read my first post, you'll see that you aren't alone. It does become an obsession. And the more it hurts, or the more wrong it is, the better.

i went to jail for 26 months and when i returned i found out my fiancee was seeing an old boyfriend for a few months. i believe she only admitted to it because the evidence piled up. she swore that was the only person and constantly accused me of cheating on her from day one. we've been together 7 yrs now. also, i later found a little black book that she kept with entries of sexual encounters with 7 different men. some of the encounters had a note of no protection. i came home for one day after 6 months and then was re arrested. when i got inside i got a bacterial infection in which i thought came from the jail. when i found her black book i also found a prescription bottle of flagyl which is the treatment for "trick". it was prescribed to her 14 days after i came home and had sex with her. i now know where the infection came from. i know if i confront her with the evidence she'll just try to lie her way out of it. can you please give me some advice. i really love her but it's getting really hard to be with her. she has never been on medication and she was diagnosed at 17. she's now 26 years old.
