When first diagnosed I seemed to want to tell everyone in my life. I found out in the hardest way that less is so much better than more.

My life just imploded at time of diagnosis and I burned out numerous people mostly co workers at the time.

I started seeing a Therapist and Pdoc. I found this forum and it was a lifesaver.. I found out I wasn’t alone. People here cared about me because they really “ get it” I have learned a unmeasurable amount of knowledge about my particular Bipolar soup.

As for my marriage I know my husband is here for me but I make Bipolar as small as possible in our marriage If I’m struggling I’ll give him a heads up. But I have a Therapist and unbelievably supportive friends that have my back.
