It can be so hard when a partner isn't supportive or doesn't get what we need. I was just there yesterday and ended up bawling my eyes out to my husband because he just didn't understand that I needed him to seriously help out without me nagging him or rolling his eyes at me.

I think what they sometimes don't get is that there are times when we have a hard time functioning (depression) and other times when we can do just fine (mania). I can imagine it's hard because they don't know what to expect, but when we say "I need your help!" they have to step in and help.

I hope you feel better.
