Your Friend,

I have been ‘wrestling’ with this disorder myself since I was 17 years old and it was only diagnosed properly about 1-1/2 years ago. I am now 46 years old. I find your information extremely helpful to me and my family and I want to Thank you for all the help and advice. I only hope others get as much out of your advice as I do.
Again, Thank you!
Keith, I too feel that my husband have been “wrestling with this disorder for many years. He finally broke down June 2007, and was diagnosed with Bi-Polar, he too is 46 yrs. old. We are married and he doesnt want anything to do with me. Are you married and if so how is your family dealing. Is there Hope????????
Coquisd28,
My husband had a manic episode last summer 2006 while working in the film industry.
He arrive home to annouce that he couldn’t live here, and did not want to see me are talk to me, very angry and emotional.He even went so far as to join a dating service. I thought he was having a midlife crisis. Then as I thought about it, I use to kid him about being slightly manic during our 16 years of marriage.I put it all togeather and realized he actually was manic depressive and was having a big manic episode, 30,000 dollar truck was also bought . So I told him so, he did not believe me until he got scared , I think he was afraid he was going to hurt himself and went into an evaluation and was diagnosed. As time went on we have started to communicate, but now the problem is he is so ashamed of his behavoir towards me that he is still refusing to come home, like drunkards remorse. He is still refusing to take medication , but is seeing a therapist.right now I cannot contact him because his cell phone is broken and he seems to be unable to tend to that.he is 150 miles away.But I can say that it has been just about a year since his break . If you can accept that it is his sickness that is making him behave this way,it helps a little, because you know it’s not you. He probably doesn’t want to put you through the emotional crap that he is going through, because he may not understand it himself. Until my husband realises he will need medication I am not expecting any miracles. Maybe the same with yours. But I can say that the communication is better, it was about three months before I could have a decent conversation. Hang in there and maybe your husband will start meds and level out and realise how important you are. Keep on supporting him even if he doesn’t want to talk to you and is mean and abusive, in the end he will love you for it. Even though my husband is still living elsewhere, he has thanked me for being there for him and is a much kinder person now, still screwed up and not at home ,but at least resonable.And thats all I can tell you because I am new to this myself.Read a book by Patty Duke called “Brillant Madness”.Hang in there.

my boyfriend is bypolar. this passed summer he had a major manic episode and am not sure if he’s completely recovered. He is undergoing ECT Treatment to help get him out of this manic stage. The problem is he’s rubbed my family members the wrong way. While he was in a manic stage he started calling particularly my dad and sister all the time and got paranoid when they quit answering the phone. Now he’s blaming my family for the whole uproar which it is really him who caused the trouble. So am stuck between my family and my bestfriend. am stressed out over this. So am just allowing his doctor and his family take care of him.
Sorry, but in good faith i signed up to your site as I have a good friend who is genuinely suffering the fallout from having a husband with bipolar disorder. Unfortunately I now get the feeling that I am in contact with a moneymaking organisation. If you really wanted to help people with this dreadful disorder and truly feel you have found any way of improving their quality of life your information via e-mail would cost nothing and could be cascaded worldwide. Sadly, if a sufferer themselves were to contact your site they could already have worsened their debts by clutching at straws and parting with more money.
Mousey: Thank you so much for responding and the wonderful words of advice. I will check out that book.
Just read the article about ABILIFY. I also have Type II Diabetes. Now I know that ABILIFY can affect your blood sugar readings. I will talk to my family doctor about the problems with ABILIFY and my blood sugar readings ASAP! Thankyou for the informative article. The ABILIFY seems to be working and I pray that I don’t have to change medicines again.
The “delusional” or “psychotic” aspects of bipolar are what scare me so. I left my husband this past February because of escalating delusions which he totally believes are true (including putting hits out on people by calling an Italian family he knew as a kid in Ohio), very scary violent threats to others, and so much emotional abuse to me and my kids (who are 17, 15, and 13). I left in a hurry after some very scary threats to my daughter’s boyfriend and just total “crazy” behavior, had to file divorce papers with a restraining order just to feel safe, and moved into an apartment. Then he got back into my life by being very nice and helpful in moving furniture to my apartment, fixing me dinner, taking me out, etc. He has also been on Seroquel for three months, and he is a lot better as far as not cursing or screaming anymore and handling a lot of potential triggers without “going off.” However, he still goes off on emotional abuse (without violence, yelling, or cursing) when he has a “trigger,” namely my kids lying to him, not being respectful, getting in trouble, etc. Then it goes on to blaming me, putting me down (to put it mildly), blaming me for all of their problems, calling me at all hours, and ranting and raving about things that he has completely gone along with up until the “trigger” but then says he never really wanted in the first place, on and on and on. We are still separated but were talking about getting back together and were even looking at houses in our city (which he now says he never wanted to live in anymore in the first place). Agreeing, then going back on things, agreeing, then going back on things, on and on and on. Now I am in fear, in fear of going ahead with the divorce and in fear of getting back with him. I feel there is no answer. No matter what, I will be in fear. I don’t know how much more I can take. Anybody else have a situation like this? Between a rock and a hard place?
