| bi polar what is it?
Thankyou all for replying, maybe im being naive or have explained things badly but we do mostly have a very good r/ship and he is the most patient sensitive caring person i have ever met apart from recently as i described,which is why i kept questioning him until he told me about his disorder. he has mentioned lithium and is very opposed to it says it messes your head up, as i said he is extremely intelligent and also gives very convincing arguements against treatment and for the flagging system he uses. he has also said he has never felt suicidal which i really do believe .if anything i would say he is the least likely person you could imagine would feel that way,and he is mostly a very happy easy going person.my children above all are my main priority i never ever wish to put them at risk in anyway emotionally or otherwise ,they are very close to him i feel very torn as i dont want to give up on him ,why should i just because he is 'ill'? i know without doubt i could never convince (difficult to explain but in our type of r/ship that would never be a consideration anyway) him to seek help of any kind he is extremley controlling of himself as well as others and will only do as he feels is right, i am very submissive by nature and could never be strong or forcefull enough to convince him otherwise.i am probably repeating myself but i really dont know what to do or how to help him through his bad times ..dont people who have this disorder have loving succesful relationships and family's? surely they do? i just want to understand and help him and for us all to be happy which he says he wants more than anything and my children and me do too. should we really let this ruin things for us? i dont want to offend any of you who have replied but surely there is some hope?
