Does BPD affect your libido?

I’ve got to ask because I don’t know if this is related to bipolar disorder or a BPD symptom. Today, I forgot to take my pills, and I feel extremely emotional and over the top. I’m very energetic, and my libido is through the roof. I suffer from it because I’m at work or in places where I shouldn’t be feeling this way, but I feel extremely turned on. It’s uncomfortable.
And it’s not the first time this has happened to me. Sometimes it even happens when I’m taking my medication, but it’s never exactly the same symptom. Sometimes I get like this, and other times I get extremely depressed and can’t get out of bed, make dinner, or even wash myself.

Does this happen to any of you too?

I’m struggling rn

hi everyone. first off, English is not my first language but I needed to reach out to somebody. I was talking to an AI and it told me to look for support groups on reddit. I am feeli very alone on this journey. my friends are trying their best, they listen when I text them 2am looking for help, they reach out to me and take me to dinner, help me get some sleep, or listen to what ive been through. but what they think is helping me, for my disease is only a distraction. no one truly understands what I’m going through. they don’t get the clog in my chest that gets heavier everyday, and then when the clog goes away a and there’s suddenly an empty hole. or when I’m feeling better and then, out of nowhere, I’m feeling the worst I’ve felt in months. I want to fall in love, but it’s so dangerous to me. I’ve fallen in love with a girl last year and If it wasn’t for my friends, I would have ended up hospitalized. I could no eat, my roommate would come home tired from work and cook dinner cause i hadn’t eaten all day. and if it wasnt for her, I’d be like that for days. I do not think I’m being hard on them, cause i always try to bottle everything up not to be a nuisance. but I’m tired. I’m really tired. I won’t give up, not yet. but I just want to sleep. I want someone to tell me what to do to make this end. or maybe someone who can just understand. thanks.
