Hello Boys n Berries,

Just wanted to post a quick thread regarding bipolar relationships. I was diagnosed after my wedding, and after I went full blown psychotic on my husband. True story - he had to call my parents because he was so scared.

After all the tears, bipolar diagnosis, medication, job loss & disability etc. We are still going strong, and this week we will have been married 5 years.

Hang in there everyone; it CAN get better.

Peace & Hugs

TnT

It definitely can work, even with a BP diagnosis.
