How have you handled being bipolar and your relationship? Assuming you started the relationship before being diagnosed? What did you tell your partner? What advice do you give them?
What changes have you made in your relationship to make living easier?
I just don't know how to explain to my boyfriend what I'm going through, and what assistance and understanding... I need from him. I don't know what I can say to him to expect.
And no, I am not looking at using bipolar as an excuse, but I'm sure the relationship needs to be treated slightly different, with a lot more respect and understanding???

Not sure if I got my point across - I feel a bit spaced and down, so I am doing my best to put my thoughts/questions on paper
