Keep asking. And we'll try to answer. But remember, too, that Some of us are BP 2 and some - like your wife and I - are BP 1. And we are each individual.
I think one of the best things you can do is get counseling yourself. You need to keep yourself healthy. This is a LOT to deal with.

I will start counseling on Tuesday. I am starting to understand but by no means have an understanding. I wish my wife would get help. I truely do but, if she does not, I would not run from another bipolar person. It has been three years for me, trying to figure out all this out. My heart is very much with my wife, I love her very much and I wish to GOD there was something I could do for her. But, I am starting to rot from the insude out. There has been so muh pain and so much agony and I am pretty certain, in her mind, I did all of this. I would do whatever I could for her. I know with absolute certainty, I would have given my life for her. She is gone, other than knowing she is in Michigan, I have no idea where she is. As I said before, the entire family is suffering, so her support group is in favor of her not having a problem.
All I can say is, if anyone can figure out a way to make this work, if someone could make her get treatment, I would be all in and I'd love her all the way. But, whats next if she does not get treated, just how serious could it get.
