Mr. Scott,
With me, I always had an extremely healthy sexual appetite. I don't think it was a hypomanic thing but simply that I was very sexual. Even when I was depressed I wanted sex. With the SSRIs, which cause sexual side effects, I have a minimal sex drive. I think it is definitely the side effects of the drug. Perhaps you simply had a large libido - I think I remember you saying you were a teenager while on tricylics? OR sex was compensating for something lacking in your life...who knows. But those damn SSRIs really screw things up, so to speak, in the bedroom.
