I wouldnt normally ask this, but seeing as we are fairly anonymous on here...
Is it part of the illness to have dreams about sex all the time ?? Im not really a person whos too bothered by it in real life, but i keep dreaming about it, like a pre pubesent boy having wet dreams ( which makes no sence as im 42 and married !) is this part of being by polar, or am i just normal and frustrated ?? please feel free to answer honestly haha !!

Log,
I just wanted to let you know that as embarressing as it is i do the same thing and we are close in age and we are both bipolar so i do wonder if its the medicine or something else. I hope someone out there has an answer.

I did wonder about it being the meds to,....im on seraquel 300mgs night and morning.
I used to be on zyprexa which gave me very strange and lucid dreams, but not about sex !!...maybe it is our age haha !!

hi folks,

i'm younger but not all that much - 35. I do have dreams but only when i'm hypo. My biggest issue is NO sex drive. My psych says that is the condition and the meds.2000mg Depakote.
