There is no question that living with someone with our problem is a challenge. But it is a part of who you are.

My first marriage ended as a result but I did not know my problem then so therefore she did not either. And obviously I wasn't dealing with it.

I am married now and it is totally different because 1- I am taking it head on and 2 - this woman has known me for many years and 3- I do not make excuse or let my illness become the family problem as much as I possibly can
