I have been manic for two days now and I have no one to talk to. My husband has no clue about this side of my disorder. He only knows that I get depressed for days on end. I really want him to understand but he hasn't taken the time to even try to learn about BP disorder. I truely believe that he thinks BP disorder is a made-up condition. I really want him to educated himself, but he isn't the type that wants to even try to understand things outside of his comfort zone. I have isolated myself by moving away with my husband so I have no friends to turn to. This just sucks.

I'm trying to exercise daily. I was doing fairly well until I sprained my ankle 2 weeks ago but now I'm getting back on the horse. Today I walked over a mile with my arm weights that are about 22lbs total. I was out of shape and it was hard on my arms. I also did my 30 situps. I'm also going to drink a lot of water and try to eat healthy. I do tend to have a sweet tooth but I'm cutting...
Sleepless night? LoL
i think i know what you're going thru. 1, one of my best friends moved away to marry and she has no one there. she is not BP but she often feels lonely. also, i don't think my husband understands BP at all, even though he claims to. my dad used to not really believe in the mental illnesses, but i gave him a lot of info and have been honest with my experiences and he understands now and believes it. i would suggest printing some info for him to look at, asking him to do it as a favor to you. a lot of people do not understand mental illness b/c they haven't been thru it, and there has always been such a stigma, but if there is some way for him to learn about it, that may help. good luck.
for fuck sake tell him give him some brochures,tape em to the dunny wall if you have too.
