I really think he won't budge on his opinion on this. I am at a loss what to do, if he doesn't wish to learn anymore about the subject- about me. He simply denies my explanations of my experiences- not that I don't experience them, but that they aren't part of being bipolar! He does, however, think he knows what bipolar is based on his first wife, who *I* think is very odd- not much like me at all. Maybe that is why he says he doesn't think I'm bipolar- but that isn't really fair. Its like he is denying I'm bipolar a) because I'm not like his ex and b) because I AM like he is! (Hears voices, "gets stressed", etc.)
I don't really know what else to say except that I talked with my dad about this today on the phone and he thought it was crazy, too.

Though we have some similarities...there are many differences...hence why most people are missed dx'd for years...
Sorry I couldn't hold my attention span to digest the rest...hopefully he was just upset...not to excuse his actions...he definately owes you an apology...and if he is not man enough by tonight...you will have to tell him how you do not wish to hear a comment like that again. Simple straight forward. If he is a man, he will honor your request...he gives men all a bad name...not only doubting what you feel but comparing you to someone else...shame shame on him.... |
