Hi Cat, so you're saying you have psychosis and the person you've met has untreated bipolar disorder? If that's the case I would be honest about it. "I have psychosis and it's difficult for me to be around someone who triggers the psychosis I'm already struggling with." Something like that.
I've been in the situation twice. One, my husband who has untreated mental illness and the other was a man I lived with for many years who had untreated bipolar 1. Ultimately, both relationships made my own mental illness much worse, even though I have always been in treatment.
