I was on bcp and bipoar/antidepresants(sp?) for the last year and had no sex drive at all. I stopped taking all of them 2 weeks ago (using condoms and spermecide :) and now I'm horny 24/7 when I wake till i go to bed.. I have sex almost everday, my best girl friend turned me on which is wierd, I mean im kinda bisexual but she is so not my type and we have been best friends for 9 years. She was rubbing my sholders and it turned me on and its creepy!! I'm scared I cant control myself, I dont know what to do.... I don't know how to control my new found sex drive..

I cant control my sexual desires!!
Thanks ducy, another thing is we work different shifts, I work 1st and he 3rd so hes not around all the time. I turned 21 last month :)
Big, I took bipolar med because my bcp made me crazy, so if I'm not taking bcp I don't need bipolar pills and as far as antidepressants, I want to live my life and learn to live happy on my own, Ducy has a cool idea I would like to try.
oh ok well good for you. enjoy your new appetite for life. and like ducy said use your fiancee as your sex toy. i don't think he will mind;)
Honestly, id say you probably have an incredible sex drive to begin with, and you are finally discovering it since your not having it suppressed. I mean your only 19 aren't you? (If I remember your profile correctly). Your a young teenager full of hormones and incredibly fertile. You a baby making machine right now, and since you don't have "happy" pills keeping it in check, it is free to run rampant.
As far as your best girlfriend. You admitted your kind of bisexual, she was touching you, and physical touch can be completely stimulating. I mean studies have shown that the touch of another can have phenomenal mental and physical effects. So she touched you in a sensitive spot, and it turned you on. Its okay!
If you are worried about acting on these urges, do so with your boyfriend. Use it as a chance to satisfy your need for sex, while also getting a chance to grow closer with your boyfriend. And I know he won't say no because you are a very attractive woman. So celebrate this newfound sex drive, and use it as a chance to work through your feelings about masturbation. I used to feel guilty and even sick after asturbating. Nowadays I couldn't imagine going more than 12 hours without getting off...and that's only because I am too busy to think the rest of the time.
epic did you go off your meds by your recommendation and not your doctor? from the little experience i have seen you need to slowly go off these drugs if at all. to my knowledge bi polar disorder can only be treated, not cured. please contact your doctor as he/she can tell what your body chemistry is, and what the best option is for you.
Epic, first of all: congrats on your new found desires! :) I wish you lots of fun enjoying this! I remember when I quit the BC-pill a lot changed for me in a very good way :)
It's the antidepressants I'm a bit worried about, though... Not to scare you, but I've seen from very up close that right after quitting it's all happy and great, but in 2-3 months after quitting people could find themselves hitting rock very badly. I don't know which you were on, but at least some of this stuff tends to linger before you get the bad backlash. Just like it takes a while before they start to work, when you're first prescribed. I'm not trying to act like a concerned mom on you now, but did you at least notify your prescribing doctor about quitting both?
If you're prone to being depressed, take the damn pills and be done with it. My hubby takes heart meds which he isn't happy about but he takes the pills anyway. Part of being adult is effectively dealing with med issues in an adult fashion. (See? I'll be the Mom. No problem!)
You have a sex drive now. Good! Being new, you may not realise it but you have a normal sex drive - not something 'out of control' - it is just that you are not used to having a sex drive at all - so to you, your reawakened drive SEEMS, only seems, abnormal because you're not used to it.
To me you sound very 'normal'.
I still don't understand why people get depressed after masturbation. I've never met an orgasm I didn't like. And it isn't like sex is a 'limited commodity' or 'available for a limited time only'.
my educated guess EEK is that sex and orgasms give you a high. eventually you have to come down from that, and some do more so than others.
Lol thanks guys, I'm very glad to know I'm normal. I have talked to my doctor about my antidepressants and I'm slowly quitting them, instead of everyday, I have been taking them everyother day, he said to do this for a month and if everything is good I can try every 2 days and so forth till I find where I stand. If I can't control my depression without them I will get back on them fully, just wanted to try not taking them or atleast as many, I have a desire to be happy and alive now, so maybe things may be different, then again maybe not but I'm willing to find out.
As far as masturbating, its not the orgasm I get depressed about, I think its that once all the fun is over, I notice nobody was here to share it with. Guess I need to learn not everything needs to be shared :)
Yes, it is okay to NOT share everything.
Just as we all need our own space, so too do we need somethings we do or have that are just for us.
