Bipolar Disorder Support Group
Bipolar disorder is not just a single disorder, but a category of mood disorders marked by periods of abnormally high energy and euphoria, often accompanied by bouts of clinical depression. This is the place to talk about your experience with bipolar disorder, learn from others' experiences, and find support.
How do you think it's best approached? I need to explain some of my BP to my fiance...he has read books and I've talked to him before, but he still fails to understand at all.
What sort of things should I bring up and stress more? How do I try to "make" him understand even though it's something I know he cannot? I know nothing I say will actually make him fully understand, but I just need him to be a little more understanding.
What should I bring up? I'll be writing it all down so that I don't forget anything...any advice would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks.

I have told him some signs to look for and he kind of checks in on me when I need him. He convinces me to call the tdoc when I should and he supported my past pdoc decisions.
Are minds just simply work diffrently then theirs and since they cannot see what is going on inside they cannot figure it out. They cannot fathom how deep the depression can get. They really can't fathom psycosis other than your seeing things.
Tell a saner that really does not know you too well that your mentally ill and you scare them or they think of you as odd.
Our minds also go deeper than theirs and we think in a diffrent manner. I consider us smarter in a way.
Any how.....I think you are spinning your wheels.....I just don't believe they can get "it."
he is realising that now, as he has joined ds,
i would really like help in this area too xxxx
