(using an alt account because people I know follow my main)

Hypersexuality, previously known as Nymphomania, is a medical condition that severely increases the amount of sexual desire and urges one has. Depending on the person this can be up to a point of annoyance or distress.

I only recently realized I had this through an outside perspective and it manifests as a constant sexual drive in me.

So, AMA! And don’t be shy, there are no questions that are off limits

    this is very interesting because it brings up a thing i’ve thought about a lot, how to even talk about this stuff with people? i’ve had suspicions but i don’t have the sort of people around me where this can be discussed. which helps fuel even more anxiety.

      While I talk about the effects, I haven’t told many people about the hypersexuality itself. I fear they might get the wrong ideas, like thinking I might not be able to consent or that I’m not interested in romantical stuff because of it. Both are wrong, but too easy to imagine from the definition.

      Did you have any experiences that made you think about having this? Or what suspicions are you talking about?

        yeah, experiences like flooding your brain in the middle of the day making it hard to concentrate. then again that may be an audhd thing.

          Depending on what thoughts you had during that it could be ADHD or something else. Really comes down to your personal definition and how you feel about it
