I guess others that want to be part of our lives will have to accept that we are sick and take this into account when we act differently due to our moods and the emotions that it stirs up. I know for me, that I tend to either push people away or give them everything past a reasonable point. I go between the two... I don't really know why. I'm sure there are times that you are extrememly close followed by this irradic behavior. If you decide to stay... she will love you for it. but right now I think that she is prolly testing the waters to see if you are someone that will stick around or not. Just a hunch.

She's not bipolar, she HAS bipolar. She is mentally ill. if you decide to stay and love her, love her for who she is, not what she does. Definitely protect yourself in areas that she might tend to hurt you while manic or depressed, and don't always take her seriously...

don't take her seriously when she is on a manic high... just know that inside she is a person who is feeling euphoric feelings and that just wants the best for herself and others. she can't really see what she is doing cuz her brain is telling her that she is doing the right thing. after all, we all try and want to do the right thing..right?

when she is depressed, she is battling something much bigger than any of us and she will need to hold on to those close around her. She will draw strength from you. she might be needy and clingy and that's okay. that is her fighting this demon that we face.

I hope that this helps...
