Hi,
When I was married my husband did not believe in my illness, he refused to let me take my medicine or go to my doctor. I am sorry your parents don't believe you maybe you can go to a bookstore and get a book that explains to your loved ones what bipolar is. I can tell you from past experiences this illness is very hard to understand if don't have it. If they have a book maybe they can see in you what the book says bipolar is. It will get better. Good luck.
Thanks for this!
