I need any advice on how to deal with this "SELFISH" disorder. I have recently gotten married and my husband is bi-polar. Yes, I knew it before we were married but he seemed "ok". For the past 5 weeks we have been on an up and down pattern. Sometimes Manic and other deep depression. I don't know how to help him nor myself. We have recently changed doctors and are in the process of trying to get his medicine regulated. If anyone can help me please let me know. We have three girls ages 10, 6, and 6 and they depend on us and right now it's just me.
I want to do whatever I can to help him I love him with all of my heart and it tears me apart to see him in this state. He hasn't worked in 5 weeks and stays either in the bed or on the couch most of the day/night. He has trouble sleeping and has distanaced himself from our girls, family, and me. We have no life of any kind right now. Don't get me wrong, I am being patient and will do anything.
Thank you~ New Wife
