...See more Hey there, any tips on how to navigate bipolar2 in regards to support groups in teams or zoom? I’ll start with some insight. My partner and I are struggling to stay aligned on when we are in a “bipolar moment” - afterwards we can look back and see that it was a bipolar moment but when we are in the middle of an “emotions riding high” situation we think things are okay and then we get sucked into “bipolar conversations” in which my partner thinks I’m pretending she is unwell to manipulate her…. Which is the bipolar talking, my wife she can’t see it in the moment and if I address her concerns with logic she then thinks I’m patronising her because I’m trying to stay calm. sometimes I doubt myself, take onboard my partners concerns and it turns out to be a bad decision because we can see it was a bipolar moment. If I identify bipolar conversations early and avoid them my partner believe I’m dodging accountability because I advise to discuss the matter when we are both in the frame of mind that we can both talk through problems to a solution. if I agree with my partner she believes I am pacifying her and gets offended if I highlight Bipolar flags she believes I’m using bipolar as a weapon I cab be a numpty and upsetting and I can cope incorrectly but I do my upmost to consider all perspectives and would never do the things my partner thinks I’m doing My priority is my wife’s well-being sometimes I even prioritise her over myself, I have lost jobs and ended up sleeping in my car, I have moved into my own place to move back into the family home multiple times and I really want to get things right for my wife, she deserves the best and bipolar is soooo unfair to her, I read books watch videos speak to therapists listen to podcasts and scour the internet, I think we could benefit from hearing how other people navigate’.
