My wife has been recently diagnosed with bipolar 2.  I just found out she had been unfaithful in 2007 with one guy 3 times.  She has also slept with 8 different men in the last year and a half.  Seven of the men she had met with 1 or 2 times and had sexual relations.  One of the men she had met with 5-7 times and had been physical 5 of those times.  These encounters were all initiated through craigslist.  She participated in discussions and planned these encounters through email.  Did the Bipolar 2 cause her to participate and behave like this.  How much of the hypomania and hypersexuality is responsible for this behavior?
