ABOUT ME:

My wife and I have been together for 3 yrs. She has 2 boys ages 11 and 8. I have a little girl age 8. We have only known she was bp for about 6 weeks. To be honest these last 3 yrs have been hell on wheels.. When I now look back on the past I should of known something wasn't right. Before I go any futher I should make it known all of our problems are not because of bp.. I'm not in any way perfect. After all this time together its has been 1 big fight. Over the 3 yr. period we have had about 4 or 5 months where we didnt argue, fight, throw things, and say some of the most hateful stuff to each other. The thing about this is I knew better than to act that way, I looked at it as I was protecting myself. In the begining I didnt fall into that trap. I knew the way things were not right, but we kept chugging along and the more we faught the more i fell into doing it her way.. By me doing that and letting it go did not help anything but just made thing worse. There was so many other things such as sleeping all day, crying, staying in the house, not communicating with anyone, not being able to carry on a conversation with anyone without it being hostile.. Like i said earlier all this is not her fault she can't control it without the right med's. and counseling. I have no excuses for my behavior. I only hope I can now help insted of hinder.. I know she is resposiable for her actions but I could of been a better husband and not let it get this far out of control.
