I wasn't sure where to post this, but I'm coming down after a 4 day long bout of SSRI-induced mania. Couldn't sleep for more than 3 hours of sleep a night, racing thoughts, unable to stay focused, laughing and giggling like a teenager.
I have been celibate but noticed that during this time I felt almost out of control with my feelings for connecting with another man. I am embarrassed that I sent texts that I did, but thankfully nothing happened.
I wonder how much love addiction is affected by mania?
How can one be in a long-term relationship as I really, really, felt the pull of mania to go away for a weekend with a man or do something unstable. It literally felt uncontrollable regardless of how much praying, bible study I performed.
Now I feel more balanced and stable, and no longer have those romantic thoughts.

I don't know what SSRI is, but I know when I am manic I get insatiable for anything and over do to the max. Now I at least can see when I am in a manic stage. It feels good o recognize and try to curb the impulses and erratic behaviors.
Glad you are feeling better!!

Last week I was rushing around when I know I am too old to be doing that kind of thing. So God had me fall and dislocate my finger. That was a wake up call. So I went against his will and started rushing again and once again I fell. This time I was not hurt because is not trying to punish me, he is trying to get my attention. If we listen to God then we will be fine. Blessing to you. Susan
