The Strange Thing About Divorce And Bipolar Disorder

Hi,I wanted to send out a quick email message about the Divorce course I sent out the other day.

It was at:

http://www.bipolarcentral.com/divorcespecialoffer/

I have seen a number of emails to me asking basically,

“Hey, Dave, I saw you sent out something in regards to preventing a divorce. Did you mean getting a divorce?”

Let me explain.

It was the oddest thing. A few years ago, I use to get people getting my Bipolar Supporter Master Course and using the f.ree consultation to talk about how to PREVENT a divorce from their loved one.

When people would schedule I was like, “hey, I am NOT a lawyer and can’t help you get a divorce.” They were like, “I am not looking to get a divorce from my spouse I want to prevent one.” I started to slowly discover this amazing thing.

People with bipolar disorder were going into manic episodes and coming home one day and saying, “I am getting a divorce.”

Many of the supporters or spouses had 2 or 3 kids and were devastated.

In my consultations I gave the #1 non legal key tip which is get the person into proper treatment so they will be thinking right and not want a divorce.

But many people’s spouses were away and not going into proper treatment so these supporters or spouses needed to know EVERYTHING  to prevent or stop a divorce from happening when a spouse has bipolar disorder.

So I actually went out spoke with lawyers, judges, marriage counselors, people with bipolar disorder, people who were spouses of people who wanted a divorce with bipolar disorder and prevented or stopped them and put the research all together.

  1. Hello Dave, i am so grateful to you for the emails about Bi-Polar. My duaghter is now 29 & has been in & out of hospital for years with the condition. She was divorced from her husband this year but during the bitter split she tried to commit suicide 3 times. Her Ex had no compassion for her condition & sent her even more manic with his treatment of her, she is now with someone else who supports her so much but she still does the same things. Will she ever get better? I am sick with worry about my lovely daughter. She is such a warm & loving person but can be vicious to me quite often; i totally understand that its the condition that makes her do it but OMG it is so hard to bear. Her last ‘bad’ attack had her crush up sleeping pills which she tried to give to her wee 3 year old daughter, she told me she wanted to take her with her as the world would be too cruel a place for her to live in.
    I know you dont answer personal emails but i would much appreciate if you have any info on this kind of thing so i can help her with it should she try again, she is presently in the psychriatric hospital & i am looking after my wee grandaughter.
    Many thanks for all you do.

  3. David,

    I have a great question for you. I am bipolar and it has been active since I was about 18 yrs old. I am now 40 and it was not diagnosed until I was about 36. I started taking some medication for it at about 37 yrs old but it was not enough. In the meantime, my wife could not take my bipolar disorder anymore and got a divorce from me before I was truly medicated correctly. When I was finally medicated correctly it was as if I came out of a coma for about 20 yrs and realized what was important to me and how much I loved my wife and children. Well, long story short, she got the divorce because my state, Massachusetts, is a “no-fault” divorce state in which she would have got it even if I fought it so I gave in. Now my dilemma starts that I truly have got my bipolar under control but she will not give me another chance. She feels that I have “dual personality” disorder in which I am the nice guy she has seen for about a year but there is “another guy”
    that also exists. Any suggestions? I want her and my children back so badly that I think about it every night. Thank you for any input you may have with this. This seems to be the opposite of the divorce emails you have been sending lately.

    Thank you

    Jon

  4. Dave,
    I loved your letter about divorce. It looks like I am getting closer to that than I wanted too. My wife has been diagnosed with possibly being bipolar. The problem is I want to take your course but am in financial ruin because of her spending spree. In the past four months she spent over $5000 and didn’t pay the bills. Much to my surprise, we almost lost our house. Luckily I caught it before it went into forclosure and am fixing the problem. But it is costing me.
    There was one comment you made that really made sense. About NOT going to marriage counseling. I totally agree. As I am getting counsel from my pastor, I realized it isn’t about me. It is about her. She needs treatment and until she gets it, there is so little I can do.
    For now she wants to move out and be on her own. She thinks she doesn’t have a real problem, that it is just her meds that are causing this. I have tried to reason with her, but it just isn’t working. Please keep the emails coming, I am getting a lot from them.
