Hello, My wife and I are trying to work on keeping our marrage together. She is bipolar and I am trying to figure out how we are going to last as a couple..a married couple not a couple of nuts. She has included me in on her Dr visits which I really need to understand what is going on. When I try to help her around the house and other activities she snaps at me because she needs to do it herself. I do pick up the slack when I see that she is in one of her down moods and then only will she let me do the things she does to keep things together. For her it is a routine that she needs to keep some sort of order in the house and in her head. She will play with the meds she takes , such as not taking them if she has been feeling good for a few days and then crashing because she hasn't taken them. I will never really understand fully what she is going through but I will try as best I can. One day at a time sometimes one minute at a time what ever it takes.
