My boyfriend and I have been together over 3 years now...Recently...this past week...He nearly threw in the towel...I have been out of control for a while now...racing thoughts...accusing him of everything in the world...snapping at him.... we are trying to work things out...he is giving it 110 percent...He said everything goes great for 3-4 months then I go accusing him of stuff and act hateful towards him....I did not tell him when we first starting dating that I was bipolar....I don't think he really unerstands what it is...I believe he thinks it is just mood swings..i have tried to explain it but it seems to make him uncomfortable..How can I get him to understand that the racing thoughts....the accusations...the hatefulness...is just not something i intend to do? i try and struggle to keep it from happening ...but it does... i am not on meds...actually have been off for years....took up alcohol to numb my feelings...but that only led to worse episodes...should i buy him a book??? eventually try to get him to go to therapy with me?
