Does anyone else feel like they don't want to be with their spouse anymore when they're very low? How do you deal?

I'm looking for some help here. Does anyone feel like this? I know I shouldn't make rash decisions when I'm not feeling well, but it's very difficult.

Also, it's extremely important to talk to you significant other and make them aware that you're feeling this way and help them to understand that it is related to your own feelings and not their personality. This will help them to give you what you need. Personally, I've ended several relationships while low and gone on to realize that the person may have helped me get through it or at least been a great person for me if I could rebound. Also, don't feel bad. It's awesome that you haven't made the rash decision already. Being able to reach out and think it through is something to be proud of. I'm still just trying to work up to that myself. |

I had a month long period during a depression/mixed state where I resented my husband and hated the fact that I ever married him. But I was also a bit delusional and believed he was trying to control me and turn me into a stepford wife through my medication. I never did anything about it thought im one of those people who just wouldn't break up with someone no matter what...But honestly I would definitely not make any decisions while you're so down. I know you know this but everything is so distorted when you're depressed. I think you need to wait until youre a bit more stable if you can and if you still feel like this then decide how to proceed.

When I am unwell, manic or depressed I often want to break up with my boyfriend. I actually did once when hypomanic and go back together with him when stable.Thankfully he took me back and was understanding of my illness. At least I didn't sleep around on him. When we are unwell our thoughts are skewed. It is best to try and think of the positives in your relationship until you are stable and can see things more clearly.

I used to break up with my boyfriend during different phases. Now I ignore these feelings, or at least try to.
