This hurt and angered me so bad that I went out and keyed large slashes on the passengers side of his car. All I can do today is cry. He has physically and mentally abused me and I guess I just could not take anymore abuse. I wanted the message to get across that things have to end. To let him go is not easy but it should be as much damage as he has caused me physically and emotionally. It's hard enough having a mental illness and then having the person you are married to it go out of there way to provoke mood swings. I just need help today. I just need to know someone cares. I'm so depressed...shaking...anxious. I'm in bed and feel like I can't move.

Physically and mentally abusive?... Yea, you did the right thing.... He should be glad that that's all that happened to him... I woulda wrote "D*** Head" all over that car. LOL... I almost choked laughing after i typed that...
On another note, I'm sorry that you are going through this.... Abuse is a lot to handle... Love you more than you love him. If you want the relationship to be over, then end it. Tell him to leave and mean it... If he doesn't leave, then you need to leave.... From one woman to another, I can tell you that if you don't settle, because that's what your doing (settling), you will find someone that will treat you the way that you need/deserve to be treated... Someone can love and accept you and your bipolar... Good luck Sweetie!
