Don't feel bad. I think that we all as bipolars have had our drunken days of drinking or just days we drank. It did help us deal with it I will admit. I am 52 and can understand that. About this impotent could it be a side effect of medication?

Sorry I misunderstood the question. It is late and I had better go to bed but first maybe you need to look up the side effects of your medications and see if you can't eliminate the one that may be causing your impotence by replacing it with another. Good Luck and check with your doctor. About.com has some good resources on side effects. Tell me what you are taking and I will do some searching. God Bless! Susan
