Hypersexuality and hypomania
 

I’m on a slight up. Nothing too concerning bc I’m just super productive and happy and sleeping less but still forcing myself to go to bed and take promethazine to help calm me down.

My cc agreed i seem up but not at risk or anything.

I’ve met someone new - a boy. He’s away for just over a week and I just cannot shake my increased libido. No matter how many Os are going on, it’s never enough and I’m losing hours and hours and hours. I even do it over my studying and work deadlines.

It’s getting frustrating bc I like this guy so don’t want to be wreckless and go with someone else in the meantime. I’m in control of it in that sense but it’s just this constant sexual frustration and urge that I can’t shake.

I have a boxing based fitness class in 3 hours so I’m hoping that helps but I don’t know what else to do to quiet it down some.

Anyone who’s had this got any ideas? That work. Obviously distraction is a main one but it’s like EVERYTHING and ANYTHING sets me off and my brain races and I have a strong imagination. Then before you know it, whatever I’m supposed to be doing is pushed aside and I’m back at it again.

I don’t want to do something stupid and I kind of need to apply my energy to getting what I need to get done done.

It’s driving me around the bend.

Sorry you are struggling with this.
Unfortunately for me the only thing that would help is trying to avoid it as much as possible. The more I do something that my hypomanic me wants to do the more it wants it. Are there anything soothing things you could be doing at the moment?
