been on parnate before. No mood stabilizer. Really high libido. No girls in life. This was about a year.
Went off parnate.
Was on celexa + ritalin .. zero libido ... started abilify + discontinued celexa ... really high libido. added parnate, felt decreased libido. but to complicate things i might have 2 or 3 new girlfriends a month (got over avoidant personality disorder ;) ) and maybe i am just bored? i don't know ...
Dude there is some weird stuff going on. Like
Abilify = insomnia
Parnate = insomnia
Abilify + Parnate = normal sleepAbilify (or discontinued celexa?) = increased libido
parnate = increased libido
abilify + parnate = normal or lowered libido (who knows what normal is???? i'm a bipolar ;) )
mood = euthymic btwthanks for all the answers and candidness guys... much appreciated...
i have zero right to complain... i just think ... damn .. if only i was as successful at meeting ladies when i actually had a really high libido as i am now :(
i wonder if there is a way to find out if you have low sex drive or just "sorry dude you're not hypomanic anymore, get used to it" sex drive
