I have been dating this beautiful women for the past 4 months who has BP. She has this whole laundry list of issues. But as a man, I keep on trying to support her emotional and beyond. But I feel that I’m being pushed away. I get it, she needs space. But then I have days where she is like “I really miss you and be with me”. I do then the next day I feel like I’m being rejected. She always says “why do you want to be with me? Or you know I’m crazy?” I told her that I want to support with love and compassion. And she even admitted that she was trying to self sabotage our relationship. I don’t want to give up on her! I really love her soo much. I love her soul, personality, body and who she is. I’m really trying to do my best with patients. She always says I’m a good man that she has ever met. I’m so distraught and confused on what to do. I’ve tried everything to support her.

I been there too unfortunately she broke up with me but everything happens for a reason, im not 100% sure if my ex was bipolar but After she ended the relationship I leaned a lot about it and Some people say that the illness is caused by demons and other people say that its a gut issue which I believe to be both! Gut and brain are linked and if one of them suffers the other one will suffer too! You need to talk to her about her diet and Ive read a lot of comments from people saying the same thing that mental illness is a gut issue, see what kind of food she’s allergic too, gluten is horrible, processed food, junk food, fatty food, refined sugars, sweet drinks like sodas, etc if she change her diet she will get healed👌🏽

Suitup...Thanks for sharing your story. I can relate. I started having a relationship with a woman who has bipolar two months ago. I've done everything I can to be supportive and for several weeks it has been going well. Now she's pushing me away and I'm not sure if that's her disorder or she's intentionally trying to sabotage our relationship. I really care about her and I'm trying to be patient with her but I don't really know what else to do. I guess I'm just in wait and see mode for now. Ugh.

Dating someone with BP in my experience has been absolute hell. It hurts so much when they discard you like trash, but don't let you be free. It's like they don't want to be with you, but they want you to suffer and they want you to want to be with them while they ignore your calls and text messages.

Damn man.. I’m sorry this is gonna be a long thread but I’m hurting.. Me and my girl recently broke up a few days ago. From going to best friends,to lovers, to nothing.. From knowing her to middle school (which we are both 27 years old), to becoming what could’ve been the “one”. Proudly introduced her to my friends and family and coworkers. Calling her mine and being proud of it. The first 5.5 months were the happiest a man had in the world. She was considerate, loving, joyful, and the best person I knew. We had the same interests and it was obvious we were meant for each other. It seemed as the months passed on, she changed. I would sit there at night thinking of why she was yelling at me and screaming at me for literally just sitting there. 🤷🏽‍♂️ I was tryna understand her and couldn’t see her point. She was the first girl I ever loved so I went out of my way for not only her, but her daughter (6) too. 😔 I loved that little girl like she was my own and still keeping the gift she made me in my room torments me.. I was there when her grandfather passed away, to all of her family parties and even her own mother and grandma told her, “this one is a good man. Don’t ever let him go.” I was there when she was about to lose her apartment, to her thoughts of suicide.. I hated seeing her like that.. super depressed out of nowhere, and taking it out on me. She was the first girl I loved so it started playing with my mind too thinking that was the one messing up. She was the best person I knew, and when her switch flipped, she was this cruel, nasty, mean, ugly person to me. I put up with her verbal abuse and once, physical abuse. I forgave her and loved and wanted to move on and start a family with her. I knew she wanted to too, but her mental issues wouldn’t let her be happy or let me love her properly. We would go on road trips together, then she would get bothered by something so little and ruin some of them. She knew she was a lot to handle, and she thanked me for putting up with her. She recently started pushing not only me away, but her own friends. She got swallowed up in her overthinking of how she wasn’t something. Calling herself POS, a bad mother, and a bad person all around. I just wish her baby daddy never beat her, she didn’t deserve that trauma. I wish her ex’s never cheated on her, so it was hard for her to trust me. I wish she had a good childhood, but unfortunately her dad wasn’t in the picture and her mother didn’t start actually being close to her until age 24 when her daughter was 3. She tried so hard to change, but she couldn’t. I never once told her she was bipolar, but I spent nights thinking wtf I was doing wrong and all of a sudden, I thought to myself, “what if she’s bipolar?” Now looking at everything, it makes perfect sense. The substance abuse to “numb” herself so she didn’t have to “feel anything.” Calling her and telling her that wasn’t healthy, so she would just get super defensive and tell me that it’s just my fault.. blaming me over and over. I was the most patient one with her and loved her and her daughter. Her daughter is the thing that kills me the most.. I loved her. 😔 I hope she can realize, that she’s not only hurting people around her, but her own self too. I love her so much and this has ruined our relationship of only 8 months. What could’ve been, what should’ve been is no more because of this mental illness. I hope she can find help one day, and be my friend and find happiness again. She broke it off and she took blame too but she thought it would be better to break it off instead of putting each other through that.. I’m hurting super hard because the first girl I fell in love with, didn’t deserve this. She wanted the happily ever after with me and she couldn’t have it.. I hope she finds help because I don’t want her ruining her relationship with her daughter as she gets older. Sorry I just had to pour my heart out KZread. I hope people going through this with their significant other has the best of luck. ❤️

Bro the hardest thing to realize about bipolar disorder is that they are in lots of physical internal pain. They are in so much internal physical pain that they can't handle it and they start freaking out. Pain makes you go crazy. And traumas hurt physically. If you can't control the pain, then your going to lose your mind also which is what bipolar disorder is. Shes in so much pain that her whole life is basically just pain management

I am with some with bi polar sadly it’s very very difficult to deal with at times. I’m not trying to minimise what people go through. But it’s very hard on your partner unfortunately it means they have to be very selfless. I’m not saying it isn’t worth it but it’s a lot.

My best friend and love of my life has Bipolar. Everyday is a new day and I know that sometimes she just needs her space. If you love someone enough then no diagnosis or struggle is too much. Don't judge someone on their mental health but rather, love them and respect them based on how they handle it.

This has nothing to do with Bipolarity though, the overreacting

Diagnosed 20 years ago, after 2 psychiatric hospitalizations (I am 40 years old now)... Never been in a relationship, and I guess I never will. It is just that I think that if you love a person, you do not expose them to this curse. And that is also the reason I will never have children. Knowing that I passed this shit to a son or daughter of mine... That would be the fast lane towards what I am most afraid of: killing myself. I will die without a couple, but thank God my sense of self worth does not depend on having a couple or not. I have many things to live for... And that is what matters the most.

The girl I fell in love with has bipolar. We met about 2 years ago. I knew from the beginning about her condition so I learned about it what I could throughout it. It never made me change my feelings towards her. I have helped her and been through so much with her. I seriously haven’t loved anyone as much as I have loved her. With manic episodes and all I never once thought about leaving her. So I have 2 young children 5 and 10 from my past relationship. They are well behave and amazing kids and she loved how good of a dad I am and my kids love her so much at times I felt like she gave them more love and attention then their actual mom. She also says loves me but recently she said she hates me because I’m so perfect but can’t be with me anymore because I have kids and doesn’t want to be a step mother ever. We were about to celebrate our 11 month together and the last month it has been a constant battle of me trying to be there for her and her just pushing me away. It’s been about a week since I last saw her. I was about to propose to her in 2 weeks everything was planned out so this really took me by surprise and I just don’t know what to do. She says she only wants to be friends. What should I do? I love her too much to just be friends it would kill me to see her fall for someone else. But I also tend to think there could be hope if I do stay close to her and be a good friend in hard times. I’m having a really hard time right now not talking to her I feel so depressed cause I feel like it is all over. I am giving her the space she asked for so I am being respectful and waiting it out. The more time passes the more I feel like I definitely lost her. I felt like she was my soulmate so I’m just so devastated right now.

Great video and commentary. Accurate and on point.

Well, I would say, it isn't always bad. I was diagnosed as Bipolar type 2 disorder, six months back. I was devastated, when I came to know that this disorder is incurable. Without medicines, I was not even able to carry out my normal daily routine. Those who are suffering from bipolar like me, also knows the side effects of medicines, they are inevitable. But, I guess life has some good plans for me as well. I met a guy, who not only understands my condition, but also help me in getting through it. Today I can live as a normal self, without medicines. He acts as my mood stabilizing agent. He helps me in restoring myself whenever I feel lost. And most important, he loves me a lot. I hope everyone suffering from Bipolar disorder will meet someone, who will help them in getting through the disorder. Till then, stay safe. And always remember, miracle happens everyday.

Why

the guy I’ve been dating on and off for a year now has bipolar disorder,anxiety and depression. He will every few weeks/ few months go into an episode and break up w me. I genuinely care ab him and have sm love for him still even after all of it, I love him more than his mental illness and I wish he would know that. I cannot tell if it is bc of his mental illness or for ulterior motives. I have never been w someone w bipolar disorder, so I’ve just been lost w questions.

Everyone should let a prospective romantic partner know sooner than later of any mental illnesses. You could be saving eachother a lot of heartache...and therapy.

I have been diagnosed with anxiety and panic attacks ( which I thankfully don’t get any more) but I suspect I might also be boderline bipolar. I over react and switch into pressures speech everytime my bf and I get into an argument, I just can’t stop talking and letting all the thoughts that are floating in my head out. I love him to death but when I am angry or agitated I completely flip, I go through phases when I cry at a drop of a hat and feel sorry for myself and feel completely down in the dumps and phases where I go into such impulsiveness and rage. I literally snapped 2 of my sim scarfs my bf got me, I broke them after each fight we had. He does have an ego problem that makes things worse? However it’s me that messes things up most of the time. What sucks is the fact that this we both love each other to pieces and are about to get married in 2 months. I just feel sad that he had to put up with a mess like me all his life. I wish there was something I could do about it...I’m even afraid to go see a psychiatrist about it because I have a fear of being misdiagnosed with something I don’t even have. 🙃

Great video ! Very informative!

Hey! I been talking to this girl who has Bipolar type 2 for 5 months. At first we were just messaging and video call due to Covid! Eventually we ended up meeting in person, and everything was even better! The connection, attraction, interest and more! We were both very happy and everything was going well for many months, until beginning of July! That’s when I noticed that things have changed with her, and we had ups and downs and I already faced challenging situations with her. I did my best to be very supportive and patient through those hard times, even though I felt like she was pushing me away. We ended up seeing each other few times, talked it out and things were fine, but it didn’t take long for things to go back down again. Last month she expressed to me that she’s suffering a nasty phase and she thought she progressed, and told me that she needs to be in this by herself for now, and that she needs a lot of space, and doesn’t want me to have my hopes too high. I respected her space but my worried kicked in, worried of her ending things with me eventually, and that exactly what happened this week. After many weeks of not seeing each other, we finally saw each other and I quickly noticed that she was exhausted due to the 2 jobs she has. She then expressed that she doesn’t feel like she can give me what I want, doesn’t see herself dating me anymore. I was heartbroken, and didn’t know how to react. I really wanted this to work with her, but now I feel like it’s over. A part of me was wondering if this is part of her Bipolar? To push away the other person? And is there any way I can rekindle things with her?

Me and him got into a fight once and I fainted because of it and he was so cold about it. This girl almost broke up with him and he got so drunk and cried so much all he did was talk about her. Sooooo Manic not love totally obsessive and changing his personality to fit what kind of person she likes. I told him that all this is he's bipolar and he says "I'm not doing what you did mom, it's not". But it is I'm so afraid his going to marry this girl and throw away his life and her's in the process. I've been looking for a site that can give me a clear list of signs of bipolar mania vs real love. So he can see I'm not just being a mom lecturing and what I'm telling him is real.

I’m a 26 year old that has been diagnosed by a doctor with bipolar disorder, about your comment, on one hand I’ve noticed myself in my short life that girls will try and push guys into marriage so quick, and some succeed, because even my own mother has ripped me away from relationships before, on one hand it does suck as the one losing a girlfriend, later on in life you do recognize how terrible your ex-girlfriend was, as we all know, love can make you blind to a lot of things about your significant other at the time, but of course later on you keep a memory of how new and peaceful and yet, too blissful being young and in love was, you do grow up throughout the years after that, through my own experiences you never feel like you had the chance to learn that life lesson on your own to remember it, having bipolar disorder makes you very stubborn and sometimes (I will say being humbled by it), we are usually the worst about having poor judgement, I’ve found that I have to actually go through the whole experience (good or bad) to learn from it, it may not be the safest way always, but as terrible as it sounds that’s just how I learn about life. Thankfully I’ve never gotten in any trouble.As hard as it is to hear we need to live our life’s just as you did at some point, My mother constantly worries but on the other hand I can’t be held down and never have any experiences at all, because you’ll go through life never have any experiences and just be a loner, my advice to him is to stay away from marriage until she meets your dream girl requirements, like an example, I know my dream girl will play an instrument fluently and be very creative and kind if she doesn’t have those traits I won’t consider marrying her. I hope at least a part of this helped. As seeing my own mother react to the decision last that I’ve made, I still try to take the more major parts of advice like the big one we are both talking about like not rushing into marriage that one I’ve always known to be a very important thing that could ruin your life through divorce and finances if you rush in too quick and you don’t take the time through just dating to see the person last true colors on both sides.

I have bipolar 1. Sounds like your son is having ups and down periods along with extreme emotional attachments that is unhealthy especially for any relationship. I've been there and done that. 1 divorce under my belt and was extremely close to another due to the exact same problem. The women would've died for me. They saw me as a deep thinker and a loving person. But i'd switch from one person to the next and consistency was a problem in every aspect of my life because of the disorder. This included jobs, relationships, and sexual behaviors among a few other things. As time went on paranoia set in along with extreme depression. I've always had problems with depression but as the condition continued my depression was out of control along along with extreme highs. Get him on meds if what i'm describing is similar to what he's going through. It helped me immensely. My spouse says i''m such a beautiful person now.

I can’t deal with the person that’s bipolar I tried but I’m done

Beautiful video 🙏 As someone dating a person with BP, it's definitely not easy but it's also about the unique dynamic that people share between them that makes it worth it I think. As with all relationships,it does require work and effort, just a tad more on some days. Also important to remember, they're NOT the illness, it's just a part of their life and is manageable as well 😊

This is a very beautiful video

My Beautiful Queen is BP! She sent me this song, Now OUR Song, we dance to & I sing to her. Kenny Chesney, Me & You. Last 4 months been hard, It's really tough at times, but I'm hanging in there. She is Beautiful Inside and Out. Not 2 many women out there today are. I refer to this song many times. Try it folks, it may help you.

I loved this. It was spot on. You'll find someone that deserves you Hannah!

I am in love with a woman with bipolar 2 disorder and a lot of times she is so loving and other times she is distance and agitated and sometimes I don’t know how to deal with it,I always try to reassure her that I love her and she is woman of my dreams but sometimes she is so scared I am going to hurt her and when I try to tell her that I love her she tells me I don’t and I am acting wierd if I wanna just listen to music or chill with friends and I feel so bad sometimes.

She realizes her mistake after wards and I’m beginning to not be upset when she is in mood or feel sensitive but sometimes she can be so mean.what do I do when she is in that mood?

The best thing is to just acknowledge that this is something that she can't help and have a strong sense of self and confidence that it is not because she thinks you are not living up to her standards ... I know it is exhausting but during this time you really need to believe and be neutral and not add on to the stress....being someone who is suffering with the same illness my bf at times gets frustrated and thinks he is incompetent to handle me which angers him and it get counter productive

I am married to a BP3 for three and a half years, believe me it is a nightmare. Even if he is taking medication I can not say that there is a big difference. It is a cruel disease that makes ill everyone around the person affected. I have to go to a psychologist regularly in order to continue the marriage. It's horrible!

I have been dating a woman with BP for 2 months.We are hitting it off and I’m crazy about her.We reconnected after dating 20 years before.We have been seeing each other 1-2 times a week.We hold arms together during this pandemic.She wants to travel with me and meet her family.Seems like we’re hitting it off.However,a few days ago she cancelled a date as she mentioned she didn’t feel good.Then she told me she doesn’t want a relationship.Is this a mood swing? I really like her.Anyone have any suggestions?

No! It called the bipolar crash! After being manic or hypomanic, Bp2 crash after the episode. She needs space until the crash is over! It can Last days weeks or months. Depends on the person.

This may just be another confirmation that I love this kid😏. For anyone with type 2 how do I show/tell someone with bi-polar that I care or I’m here for them?

I don't see information about the girl in the video. How can I find her blog?

Hello, I was diagnosed with bipolar disorder almost 2 years ago after a long struggle with depression and anxiety disorder. Sometimes it is difficult but I have been able to sustain a semi balanced life professionally, medically, physically, romantically, and emotionally by attending regular therapy sessions with my shrink and taking my medications religiously. Dating was also difficult and living with myself sometimes is exhausting, but luckily I am surrounded by a supportive group of relatives, and an amazing partner that doesn't make me feel judged, "weird" or less than. Even though my girlfriend and I can talk about any and everything, I still struggle to share how I feel inside when I'm overwhelmed with emotions. It isn't that I'm afraid or ashamed, it's that I can't put into words what I feel. Also, the fear of her getting fed up with me and leaving is also a culprit that causes me to bottle up my feelings. It is a work in progress though, because I do need to share my feelings when they just get too much. I don't have any advice to give because I myself is a work in progress, but I'll tell you thus much, therapy and medications helps tremendously!! Lastly, I know that dating isn't easy for us, but it is worth a try.

I got a good laugh out of the introduction.

I would get so mad over the littlest things and tell myself to stay mad know I was doing it and not fix it and my parter left me cause she couldn’t take it it’s so hard man

I’m in the same position with my partner. He gets mad at the smallest things and stays mad. It kills me all the time since I am sensitive and he refuses to get help 😞

My boyfriend just broke up with me his mother and him were talking about me. His younger brother has bipolar 1 untreated. His mom has a restraining order against his brother. I am bipolar 2 and medicated but his mom was afraid I was going "stab him in his sleep" if he was going to live with me one day. So he called it off wow everything was fine before then

Wise words

More power to you god bless

Uhm, bipolars will tell you you’re the one one day, that you’re their everything etc, and the next OUT OF NOWHERE they’ll just go like ”I don’t love you I don’t think we should be together”. Bipolars will destroy you

Can someone give me some advice that suffer from this disorder? I’m in love with my girlfriend like I truly love her, and she suffers from BPD. She’s been going through a lot recently cause her living situations and a lot more I cannot discuss for personal reasons.. she feels she’s at the end of her ropes.. I try my best to help her and understand her. Sometimes it seems impossible to reason or help you cause she’s stubborn like me.. but I understand it’s the disorder that’s making her feel how she’s feeling. I just want to make this work. She’s told me she loves me too, but it’s just hard for her and she feels nothing sometimes then she’s sad then happy.. I’ve heard the expression a roller coaster or something like that.. but yesterday she told me something alarming that almost made have a heart attack but I won’t mention I’m guessing you guys can figure it out.. I just want this to work, I want a future with her, eventually I want to marry her.. but I now it’s hard. I need advice plz.. I want to be able to help her better. I’m terrified to lose her. I want to show her that there is hope in this chaotic world. Thanks for listening 🥺👉🏻👈🏻

I have Bipolar Disorder Type I. I am in my 50's. I was properly diagnosed in my 30's but I knew I was "different" than others since my teen years. I am high functioning and aware of my mood changes. I take my meds, see my doctor monthly, go to support groups and therapy sessions, and have had hospitalization for my Bipolar Disorder. I choose to remain single. I have strong friendships with a few people, and I work at being cordial, respectful, and open minded towards others. I am friendly with others in support groups because we sometimes share intimate details about ourselves. We share comraderies of trust and respect. Of the ones in relationships, about 75% of them generally give their partners hell. Many of them mess up finances, housing situations, and their own physical health. They mentally and will sometimes physically beat down their partners. They strain their relationships. The failure rate for marriage is 90%. Do you want to work with those odds? Do the research. Many don't manage their illness well and/or they don't do the work to learn how to be in healthy friendships or relationships. I can honestly tell you to RUN! GET OUT of that toxic relationship! Find a healthy person to have a healthy relationship with and spend your life with. Think about all the other people on this planet you can meet and fall in love with that don't suffer from a severe mental illness! There are over 8 Billion people on this planet! Do you honestly think this one person is the only one on this planet you can find? For your own mental health, self esteem, physical health, finances, and future children - if you want children - don't spend another moment struggling with the person you currently love. Wish the best and honor the person as a fellow human being, appreciate the lessons learned, but be willing love yourself MORE to stay safe and sane. I personally would not get involved in a relationship or marry a person with Bipolar Disorder nor any other severe mental illness. I honestly mean it from the bottom of my heart. Be brave and GET OUT of your toxic relationship to find a healthy person to fall in love with. I hope you have by now. I wish you the best.

Truly love always cares for your lover no matter what conditions are. Be determined and love her soo much till your last breath. Everyone will prefer to enjoy and stay in bright days but true men give support in dark days too For love everything is fair either she is bipolar or normal. Don't leave her at any price,don't be selfish. Be loyal,

❤

The question remains, should we always reveal it before marriage especially if it was manageable and controlled by meds??!! Shouldn’t we worry about being misjudged or rejected by people who may not know the details and get shocked by the fact of meeting mentally ill people? Very confusing..!!

It startled me a little but I knew he took medication so figured it would probably be okay. Honestly is key and if you’re stable and tell them that then hopefully they’re accepting. If not then that’s okay too though. Everyone is entitled to their own choices. If they aren’t okay with it, it’s still better to know early on. For both of you.

@@geologist131 Be honest, tell a potential partner during the early the stages of dating. Give the person the choice to move it further or not. Why hide it? Omission is the same as lying. One doesn't know what may trigger a major change for the worse. A bad car accident, getting robbed at gunpoint, a close relative passing, or developing a major health condition like cancer could trigger serious problems, no matter how stable the BPD is managed.
