Hi everyone. I am new here, and find myself floundering in uncharted waters. I believe my husband is suffering from bipolar disorder and severe depression. He is also an alcoholic and is just now admitting to it. He ask me to make him an appointment with someone (which I have- he goes Wed.) so that he can talk about the anger and depression that is battling inside him. I find myself needing to learn what I can so that I can be the support I know he will need as he fights his way through all of this. I am so thankful I found this place, where I realize that I am not alone. I know we have not seen the worst yet, but I want to be somewhat prepared for what we, as a family, will have to face. Thank you all for sharing your stories and struggles. It takes a tremendous amount of courage and strength to get through this. I know our struggle has only truly begun. For each step forward we will fall so many steps back before we get on the right path.
