Has been showing signs for long time now , undiagnosed. ( together 8 years + 3 children) .... Behavior consists of ...delusions, lies, theft, horrible attitude , basically  Jekyll and Hyde.   . one day to the next  acting pretty normal and calm , then an extremely horific  crazy mania episode ,  can survive on 2-3 hours sleep, and bounce around,  during a episode he can disappear with no warning ,no idea where he has been , lies and bullshit stories. And pretending to be ill   hence  in hospital for operations... Or been in jail  hence locked up bcos  no I.d .    .. And many other things the list goes on...  Its hard to cope with some days,  ......I simply want. .to compare notes with others

Comparing notes on other people's condition is downright dangerous in my world. At best, it is gossip. You don't know my husband any better than I know yours and little things make big differences in the world of mental illness.

When I catch myself psychoanalyzing my loved ones and/or trading notes with other amateur psychoanalysts, I remind myself I am not a licensed psychoanalyst and get to work on my own, strictly personal professionally guided psych program.

For what it's worth.

I don't think that you can guess at this...… At the same time you need to take good care of you and your children

I think if he's willing he should see his family doctor and ask for a psych consult.... There is treatment for disorders that's usually very effective

However if he refuses to seek help I would start to think about other options for you and the kids.....

Lying and BS stories could be more personality but again he needs professional help and it's available when he's willing....

Continuing on like this is no good for any of you...… Gentle hug.....xo

    Jay's podcasts are really good.  I watch them on YouTube for free.  Today, I watched his video about motivation.  In fact, I've been watching a few videos on this subject.  Jay gave us an assignment to complete the following sentence:  I am stuck because?  I don't describe myself as stuck, but to finish the sentence, I would say that I am stuck because I am tired.  When I have energy, I do...
