> Are you suggesting that if I was married to a person who came on sexually every 48 hours just like clock work, and I didn't, I wouldn't need to feel guilty?Not at all... though in my case it comes for a couple of months and goes. I wanes in and out so slowly that you can't even put your finger, and you try to blame the environment and yourself (" I had terrible sex with that lady", "I overdosed sex", blah blah blah). I would like to hope that these libido cycles will response to mood stabilizers, though I fell quite bad on most of them...
> many pregnancies and several sexual melt downs later, I finally find out it's normal for bipolars to have sexual swiiiiiinnnngs? Way up one time and not even possible to think about it another?Tell me about that...
> Even the thought of this triggers memories. Is it ok to release on this board the extreme pain I have suffered in trying to figure this one out?More than OK. I know I made quite a few ladies suffer from my state. They felt they've become unattractive, and even if I could rationally comprehend that they are attractive, I had no libido and this would ruin the relationship. This is one of the reasons that at the age of 26 I was able to date many ladies, but never able to hold more than 3 months. It stinks and I'm working on that...
