Regularly scrolling through pictures of women on social media, and consuming pornography. Looking at pictures of my ex-girlfriend, female friends, and my partner while masturbating.

Masturbating every day; if I don’t, I experience significant tension and restlessness.

Seeking out the company of attractive women and flirting with them despite being in a relationship.

When drunk, showing female friends pictures of myself on two occasions, this escalated to kissing.

Pushing boundaries in both my current and previous relationships.

Having sexual fantasies on a daily basis about women other than my partner. Even when my partner is part of the fantasy, I feel the need to include a second woman. Unfortunately, I find it particularly arousing when that woman is one of my partner’s attractive female friends, even though my partner is uncomfortable with this. The fact that it feels taboo unfortunately makes it even more exciting for me.

An overwhelming urge to have sex with another woman in addition to my partner. I bring this up repeatedly even though I know my partner is not comfortable with it.

BDSM dynamics in which I am dominant and humiliate the other person, including emotionally. At the level of fantasy, these scenarios can become very extreme.

I continue these behaviors despite knowing that my partner is suffering and that I am hurting her through them. I often feel guilty and disgusted with myself. At other times, I feel that these desires could potentially be acted on or explored consensually, and I wonder whether this is simply hypersexuality.

10 hónapja tart a kapcsolat, 20-as éveink legvégén vagyunk.

Megtudtam, hogy a párom el fog utazni pár napra egyedül egy hónap múlva. Ezt már augusztus elején lefoglalta magának, de eltitkolta előlem, mondván, hogy mostanában rossz időszakom van mentálisan és kereste a megfelelő időpontot hogy elmondja.

Úgy derült ki végül, hogy az októberi beosztásom, hogy egyeztetni tudjuk kértem, hogy screenshotolja le a naptárját. Ezt nem tette meg többször, hárította, végül inkább megírta nekem azokat a napokat amikor munka miatt nem tudunk találkozni. Furcsa volt ez kicsit nekem, de úgy voltam vele, hogy biztos csak túlgondolom. Aztán rákérdeztem és elmondta, hogy emiatt nem küldte el, mert nem így akarta, hogy megtudjam az útját.

Nagyon csalódtam, úgy érzem nem tudok megbízni benne ezek után..

I am 29 years old and have been taking hormonal contraception since last November (Azalia for about 6 months, then the Slynd mini pill for the past 1.5 months). I switched from Azalia because it was causing low mood.
During the first month on Slynd, I had no issues, but over the past two weeks I have been experiencing very severe mood swings. I have no motivation or energy, I feel anxious for no apparent reason, I am afraid of the future, there is very little that brings me joy, my appetite has decreased, and I cry over everything.
I have always had some mood fluctuations, but I have never felt this down before—especially now, when things in my life are actually going well. I also don't usually feel this low during the summer.
My partner and I are going on a two-week beach holiday in the second half of July, and I'm not sure whether I should try to stick it out until then. Is there a chance that these symptoms could improve by that time?

I’m also afraid that if I stop my mood swings will be worse

I took Azalia for six months, and then switched to Slynd two months ago. I was hoping my mood would improve compared to when I was on Azalia. During the first month, it actually seemed better, but over the past two weeks I've had some very severe emotional crashes, with feelings of guilt, self-hatred, uncontrollable crying, a sense of inner pain, and a terrible mood. Also my Vyvanse medication started to cause anhedonia in the evenings, which was not an issue before

I’m 29 years old. I’ve been taking hormonal contraception since 2025 november. First I took desogestrel (Azalia) but I changed it to drospirenone (Slynd) becaused i had constant bad mood and emotional instability. I’ve been taking Slynd without the placebo since april (1 month now) and I felt that my mood improved, my period stopped completely (with Azalia I had irregular bleeding). But i noticed with both pills that in every 4 weeks I have a horrible mental breakdown for days with hopelessness, anxiety and depressive symptoms.

Before taking contraception I had PMS symptoms but mostly with emotional instability but not this severe low mood.
