I've noticed that when I am sexually inactive, my mental health progressively deteriorates and, somehow, any progress I had with any antidepressants stagnates before eventually deteriorating. Every time I see it happen, I am in horror because the results are pretty consistent; my mental health is at its peak for 1-2 weeks after I last have sex, then the deterioration happens. It's fine until I reach month 2. I then start being evidently less functional as a person. It continues to slowly but obviously builds up until it reaches 4-6 months where my hypersexuality and mental health gets to their worst. I then slowly get the urge to cut everyone off and self-isolate extensively but I have been learning not to listen to that urge for a good while now. However, the biggest issue is my mood and temper; I just start hating everyone and everything. Even hearing my little sister playing and being happy around me is starting to really irritate me.

I am reaching my worst point soon and I have to keep some distance away from family and friends because my thoughts are becoming more bitter, angry and miserable. Had a therapist for a while but I wasn't making much progress and am going to look for a new one when I am able to afford one. Meditating helps a little bit but not much. I did it for about an hour straight while my hypersexuality was very bad, and I simply wasn't in a much better spot afterwards.

Anyone else deals with this sort of thing? What do you do when sex with someone isn't really an option, but you want to avoid dealing with the dysfunctional drop in mental health? Please don't say sex toys. I tried many types anal and penile and I am still financially recovering from buying an expensive one out of pain and desperation.
