Misunderstood
I have bipolar 2. Severe anxiety and depression. I am medicated for all.. i do not do couceling because we only have 1 car, my husband takes it to work, and i stay home with our 4 children. My medication keeps things under control for the most part, however when ever i have a down day, my husband and i always fight and the fights usually last 2-4 days. I do not feel he understands my daily strugggles to be "normal"
I wish he could feel my pain.. see myself, the way i see myself.. i wish he would jus understand and be there for me and not take it personal or say, you blame everything on your bipolar.. or you use it as a crutch...
Things are hard sometimes and when thet are, i fight my battles alone..
@BP2AD
Being alone with bipolar disorder is so hard and exhausting. I understand your pain, if that means something to you.
I think that one honest talk with your husband could help. You can try to tell him how do you feel about his behavior, about your fights and how it affects you and your daily struggles. Being honest about your emotions almost always brings understanding from the other person.
Try. Tell us what happened here, so we could help you more if something goes wrong or maybe to improve it if it goes right. Have on your mind that you always have us and this community to help you and to discuss stuff with us. Hugs!
