(((Clandestine))) - sorry you had to deal with an ignorant boyfriend.

Sometimes I think mine is somewhat ignorant as well - but I know it's hard to understand "mental illness" (god how I hate to say illness). That some people don't have full control over their moods/etc.

The worst thing is - I am not sure that I can promise him that I won't ever attempt suicide again. I think that is too much to ask.

I swear I'm trying my best - though obviously not at the moment since I quit my meds - but I just want to see if I really am bipolar.

I don't really know how I'm feeling right now, but I think I will go to the hospital if it gets too intense.

Therapy helps, but it just takes so long. =(

Thanks for your input though! Very much appreciated. The wait for a good kick continues...
