We often think the other person " gets it" but in reality its hard to " get it" when you dont have it.

One thing I will say is I practically drown my husband in my bipolar and all the shyt that goes with it.. I didnt realized just how much space I was allowing my Bipolar to take up in our marriage until the brick wall was hit doing 110.

Im not saying your over loading him or anything, Im just saying in general we don't always realize how much we talk about our BP and all the crap that goes with it..

In my case? I got a Therapist and I found BP friends that I can talk to about all things Bipolar...

Personally I just try and keep Bipolar as small apart of my marriage and friendships as possible.. When life is imploding I know I will have all the support I need.. but I realized early on no one can help me like I can help myself...

I might be flamed for saying this.. But often it boils down to.... fake it til you make it... But it is true . Everyone has a struggle,who else can we depend on? we must learn how to be okay whether we have support of not.
