Truffles,
I am trying to get her into counseling both for herself and to a marriage counselor. The problem is a month ago she had decided to end our marriage. She went to a lawyer and had the divorce papers drawn. She disengaged from our marriage and in doing so she hunted up an ex boyfriend. One that she hadn't seen in 25 years but still had thoughts and feelings for... Two weeks ago (aug 12), she went to her 25 year high school reunion and met up with him. I was back east visiting my family. Since then she says they have developed feelings for one another and she needs to figure out what those feelings are before she can continue with our relationship. This sent me into a massive cycling of my Bipolar. So I am trying my best to be at peace and to let God run things... I don't know what else to do.
She told me she wanted a divorce on Aug 16th. 4 days before our 6 year anniversary. She said she wanted to sell our home and go on her way and see where things lead... Since then she has had to go out of town on business for two weeks... not just out of twon but out of the country. I finally worked myself into such a mania I had to go to the Dr for meds. It was then I found out that they had diagnosed me 5 years ago with Stage 2 Bipolar. Nice of them to explain it to me. They said I was bipolar but my only frame of reference was my brother when he was diagnosed as stage 1 and since I didn't have the hullicinations, the paranoia and I was functioning I didn't think I had a problem. Well now it is obvious I do... but it may be too late. So yes I have offered her individual counseling, marriage counseling, Drs. and anything and everything I can think of... I don't know what to do now.
