This man is abusive, plain and simple. Emotional abuse is just as bad, if not worse, than physical abuse.......it's just that the scars are on the inside.
Stop making excuses for him just because he "has to live with a bipolar person". So does my husband. So do a LOT of people's husbands/wives/children/in-laws/families/friends/co-workers. It doesn't give your man the right to put you down, record your meltdowns, treat you like you don't matter. I'm not going to tell you to leave him, but you do need to decide if he's worth giving up any chance at building some self-esteem and living your best life with BP.
