About Me
My wonderful man has bipolar & over the last year life has been pretty tough for us while he's been unwell. I've learnt that there's no such thing as a flawless diamond. Trying hard to rebuild lost trust if that's possible!

Hiyas! Thanks for asking. I'm doing good. We're trying an approach that doesn't focus on his sickness, which has actually been working well. So I have been staying away from the DS since it makes him feel like I am seeing the sickness and not him.... Anyway, he is still struggling w/ the meds but overall we are improving. Yay! Hope all is well for you. :)

If I call you friend, You will always share a piece of my heart. I will always pride myself, To always be true to you. As much as I need friends, So must you. I will also share a place in your heart, To be there whenever you need me. I may not be there in flesh, But I will always be there in spirit. I will cope with your moods, And try to understand your needs. When you are angry, I will laugh with you. As sadness overwhelms you, We will cry together. If you feel down and kicked, I will pick you up and brush away your doubts. When you think you can't continue, I will remind you that you can. As you become discouraged, I will boost your ego high. At times when you wish to talk, My attention will all be yours. Being a friend I don't take lightly, It's my desire, never a chore. At times when you must mourn, I shall mourn with you. If you need some silence, yet not be alone, We will sit together in the peace of quiet. When you wish to play, You will always have a playmate. When you feel on top of the world, I'll pat your back and tell you, you deserve to be. You will never be completely alone, A piece of me will always be with you. One thing I can always give, Is the gift of friendship for you to accept. Allow our friendship to make you smile, Bring joy to your life as you have to mine. When you become confused and lose your way, Let me guide you in the right direction. Lean on me when you need support, Let me share your sorrow and pain. What good can a friend really be, If you cannot understand we will always care. If I call you friend, You will always know, A friend you have in me.
Hug
You are very welcomed. Hang in there, okay?

Thank you for your feed back, really. It was very honest and open, an I appreciate it. My husband was cycling a few times a day. i was shocked when I read that "rapid" meant a few times a year. We had a few particularly emotional conversations and I literally watched him cycle a few times in a conversation. He was having delusions and psychosis and it was scary. I know I sound like I am in denial. Maybe I am, but I don't want to go through that with him again. I think it was worse on him than us, so I'm trusting him to stay honest. I know he doesn't want to go through that again either. That is my explanation for accepting where we are. I know this is a ramble, but you communicated well and it didn't feel like an attack. Thank you for that.

Things will turn out fine. When you are meant to get a job, you will. The right one is out there. I applied for 7 months before I got one.

My bf hasn't physically cheated on me but recently I discovered he had a 'friendship' with a 19 year old & I discovered some explicit photos of her on his phone. Trying to understand why he kept them on his phone & didn't tell me. Now she's out of the picture & I'm wondering if I'll ever be able to trust him again.
