I posted on your other thread and understand the situation better.
Please ensure your husband has some sort of routine in his life, even though he is not working. I'm not sure what his physical situation is, but there has to be something healthy he can stay occupied with. And playing video games all day is NOT healthy.
Then you need to be honest with yourself too - you need to ensure your needs are met. WANTS are negotiable. Can the two of you complement each other in your relationship?
But you've come so far, you need to do everything possible to save it.
I'm not sure if you're in therapy yourself, but it really helps when you are dx'd with BP. I strongly advise you see a T. You may learn enough about yourself in these sessions to be able to fix your relationship (My bf would not attend therapy if I begged him, lol!)
