A member asked:
What to do if i have bipolar disorder and i'm taking mood stabilizers. how can i control my sex drive?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Hypersexulaity: As you may well know, excessive sex drive is one of the symptoms of the manic end of the bipolar spectrum. I'm glad you are on your mood stabilizers, as this will help stabilize these drives. I encourage you to use masturbation as needed to relieve urges, and to really try and avoid risky sexual behaviors that can have profound affects on your life because of exposure to disease. Enjoy yourself!
