Partner with bipolar
Hi,
my partner has bipolar and is usually stable taking medication however recently he is becoming very heightened and i think at the start of a manic episode going by previous experience. He knows he is not feeling right but brushes it off and says he's fine and gets very annoyed if i try to say or question anything. Not sure what i expect from this post but feel soo alone and isolated, i feel he is pushing me away, he will talk to EVERYONE but me (not regarding bipolar just in general) for example last night spent the whole night in the kitchen with music on, on his phone talking to everyone and anyone and drinking alcohol.
Feel soo helpless and lonely, any help, support or advise would be much appreciated, even just to have someone to talk to.
Thanks
@LCS87 Hey there! This sounds like a really stressful and isolating experience for you, seeing your partner behaving in a heightened matter and not knowing what to do about it. It sounds like he finds it difficult to talk about too! I don't have any advice but I wanted to reply and let you know I hear you, I feel for you, and I'm here if you'd like to chat. Just send me a pm and we can get something arranged :) All the best <3
@LCS87 I'm so sorry for the delayed response. I truly understand how difficult it can be to cope with tough emotions. Please know that I'm here to listen and support you in any way I can. Please don't hesitate to reach out to me whenever you need someone to talk to. 🫶🏻
