im also 26 years old and i also think my boyfriend is bipolar, he recently proposed to me and we have a 3 year old son we have been together for almost 6 years and ive been going threw the mood swings with him for about 2 years now and im emotionally drained from it! sometimes he would just wake up in the morning mad at me and i dont know why, he says very hurtful things to me when we argue ,curses, yells, and even would punch a hole threw the wall , he never backs down and neither do i ,i think when i dont back down he gets worse but i refuse to shut down! and then 4 hours later its like nothing happen,sometimes he would even say sorry and if i dont except him when hes trying to be "normal" all hell will break loose again! ive told him he needs help but he thinks im crazy!!!! its very sad because he doesnt even try to hear me out , and when i cry he treats me even worse he will say "your such a big f@cking baby!" . if this behavior doesnt stop , there will be no wedding i refuse to go on with this unless he gets help
