Hi, My pdoc has been treating me with meds designed typically for BP disorder. But she has never told me that. But when I saw a Therapist, he said based on the meds and what i was telling him that I prob have a mild form of bp. I am trying to find out if this could be considered a "hypomania" episode: (back round first, I have always been very insecure about myself and need alot of attn or praise to feel good about myself) So, out of the blue I start chatting online with men, sent pics and waited for their responses. Everyone told me i was hot and attractive etc..So, i got into this roller coaster thing where i just couldnt get enough of the guys telling me that. Well, in order to keep their interest, I would flirt back, acting as if i would have an affair. This way, I knew they would keep talking to me. It got way out of control. I even met someone for a drink once. This behavior is uncharactristic of me. I am not a sexual person really (prob bc of meds) so I wasnt interested in having an affair, just wanting the sexual attention. Anyway, my husband found out and doesnt believe that this could be caused by my illness. Could this be considered a hypomania episode or pychotic episode?? has anyone ever heard of this?
Thanks
S
