My husband of 9 years has just been diagnosed as bipolar. I can't believe I did not put 2 and 2 together. He has serious anger issues and I am the subject of his abuse. He smokes pot to self medicate. It is a very cyclical response. 3 to 4 weeks of normal behavior, then a few days of no sleep then anxiety and then the explosive and demeaning behavior. Followed by remorse and then sweeping it under the rug. I can't take anymore. I told him if he does not get on the medication I am going to leave him. I would love to have insight from my fellow caregivers of a bipolar diagnosis.
