Welcome to Psych Central Merr. Sorry you are suffering from bipolar challenges in your marriage. It can take years to work things out when it is difficult to get both parties to the counselor with a willingness to change. It is a difficult time, but one where meds and counseling can help.

Glad you are joining us here. There are lots of compassionate people here that can make the load lighter by sharing and caring. Feel free to participate actively at Psych Central.
