I'm sorry. That is really awesome that you provide for your daughter. It sounds like your significant other has an opportunity to learn more about your medical condition. Maybe you can look up bipolar support groups in your area- let her know of the times where she can have a safe place to share her experiences and learn from others. Or, perhaps you can set up a follow-up appointment with your pdoc and let your significant other ask questions & be better educated about your illness. Maybe your office has a nurse practitioner who can do so.
