my husband deals with it really well. he loves me, and the bi polar is part of me. when i get wound up, or crazy he knows exactly how to calm me down.

i'm sure he wishes i didnt have this disorder, but he really does make the best of it. i've never felt like i was burdening him with it.

My husband doesn't know. I really doubt I'll ever tell him. He loves me, even without the label to explain the way I am sometimes.

My partner is Super supportive. She is severely dyslexic and has spent the better part of the last 18 years trying to read all she can about my illness. she goes out of her way to follow doctors orders, and to get the often not to happy about complying me, to do the same. She watches my mood and tries to nip it in the bud when i am getting a bit Manic. often sending me to the doctors with letters about my mood and what she thinks will help. lol he even sends letters home to her. I don't really know what i would do without her. she went from knowing nothing at all about mental illness to being a supper supporter. We have been together 18 years and I don't know mentally where i would be without her.
