Meds not working. Started Abilify a week ago, felt great up until this morning, well, overall, I felt well. Today, roller coaster all day, tonight 180'ed on my significant other, and turned the entire night over within a matter of minutes. I am so sick and tired of trying to figure out what meds work and tired of destroying my relationship. Tired of destroying him. He must be miserable. We have children, so it's more complicated. I told him from the beginning, "I am best off alone. Just my children and I." Now we have children together, well my children are his and one together. It's more complicated. I don't know how he has lasted this long, has held one, put up with me. Still loves me. I don't know. But I do know he doesn't understandably understand me. And I do know, he cannot take much more. He is so strong, but how strong is a person to be just to be happy in a relationship?

Hello, Serra27. Your children do not need the volatility. Is professional help an option? Maybe couples' therapy at some point?

Honestly, we are very good at keeping our children in "blind sight". I know that's not always feasible to do, but our oldest is only 5. Yes children are very intuitive and she is very smart, but we have improved greatly as far as keeping certain conversations to each other. They do, she does, unfortunately see me cry often, and mood swing. I always reassure her it's not because of her, not her fault, etc. Our boys are very young, both under 2 so...I just want this figured out and correct meds before they get older. I am just starting back at therapy so hope it helps. Meds are tricky right now, finished nursing, postpartum, was pregnant back to back. I am a hormonal mess on top of everything else. Anyway, I keep going on! I apologize, but yes, seeking pro help, went last week, going again this week. Thank you
