He's going to set me off and I don't like snapping at people, so I do my best to control it. But there's a thin line he's walking and he's about to go over it. He doesn't take his meds like he's supposed to either. He lies all the time about things too. Little stuff to big stuff .. doesn't matter he will lie.

Immaturity is very common in bipolar. The best you can do is educate yourself about it and find coping mechanism to deal with it. I don't think it's against the rules to inform you of other boards, but
"Depression fallout" boards might be helpful listening to people who are going through the same thing as you.
