i get ssi for bipolar, i was already out of work for 2 years before i applied, and during that time i was frequently hospitalized.
also, can you sit down with your husband and tell him how his spending and moods are contributing to your problems? will he listen? if he wont listen to you alone, can you do a joint session at therapy?

the way the agency works- i'm contracted to this company...if they pull me out, there's no guarantee that they can find me somewhere else to work, and the work that I do is pretty specialized, so there just aren't tons of jobs out there for me.
My husband is very difficult. If i don't come on very softly, he gets angry and mean. He doesn't believe in therapy and although he deals with my illness, he generally has no tolerance for anyone who isn't "normal' . i told my therapist this week that i wouldn't bring him in because i think he would either embarass himself or me. I love him, but i'm not sure i will stay married to him because of these and other things. i stay with him now because i need him financially. He can be a kind and loving person, but he can also be mean, so it's basically a bad situation. we just got married last year - probably shouldn't have but it was too late when I realized it. it's a long story which I will bore you all with at some other time. Now i'm just praying he never reads this.
