So I started dating this guy in August and it's been a rough road. I believe we can work through everything but somewhere something has to give.

I was put on new medication in October and it's obviously making certain things worst. I try to explain that you can't just put everyone on the same pill and it work but he doesn't seem to understand and soon after the initial effect of the medication wore off he asked if I'd been taking my meds cause things had gotten worst.

Now not only this but he seems to just care less and less when my feelings are hurt or if I'm sad cause of what he said. Or just how I feel in general.

Tonight I thought him and I were having a good talk and it seemed to happen again where I got upset and he just got upset with me saying I'm always mad or sad or something.

Now I know he's not in the right and I've probably not either but how do I address this with him in a way that's not whiny or angry???

Would he be willing to read some information about being Bipolar? It might give him a better idea about what you go through.

I agree with Gayleggg...... Hopefully he is willing to read up a bit on Bipolar.

If he isn't..... to be honest this is probably going to be a very unhealthy relationship for you to be in.

Bipolar is very hard to understand for most people without it. Try to educate him.
