Chemical Imbalance My moods change so drastically every few days, that it does have an effect on my loved ones. I know I'm driving my boyfriend crazy... and I don't blame him. I don't understand myself either. My emotes change much quicker than that, like every couple of minutes or in worse case scenario, I cycle up to 4 times a minute, pretty confusing. but I drive my girlfriend crazy...but in a good way, she trusts me to protect her which is odd, because to everyone else, she is rather intimidating...hummm.

I broke up with my boyfriend in january because I got REALLY depressed in october and I just...never wanted to see him. I never even left the house. He didn't understand why, and when I finally admitted to him that I was depressed again he freaked out because one of his family killed themself because they were depressed. He was a wreck, he just worried about me all the time. So we ended it. The sad part is I don't care. I can't make myself care.
And I have no friends anymore. I've pushed them all away. I don't want anyone to know what I go through. And I hate what I do to them.

This isn't as bad as some of the instances in here, but I just go crazy over the little things, like if my fiance leaves a cabinet open or if he misplaces something. I just get so angry, and other times I'm way to excited that I either want to have sex all the time, don't want to go to sleep or both.

Relationships are hard, let alone with mental illness added. sad
I'm so lucky to still be with my boyfriend. I don't know how he deals with me.
Our relationship, at the time of about 3 years, nearly ended when I had my worst ever depressed phase (it's what got me to go seek treatment). He had never come in contact with a mental disorder before, and didn't know how to deal with it. His first reaction was to blame it on other things and deny it. He ended up trying to act as normal, while meanwhile I was coming close to trying to kill myself. He ended up getting angry with me for being so withdrawn and for being too tired to do anything, which only made things worse. I nearly dumped him, but when he realized what he had been doing he stopped immediately and started treating me like a person again. After a few months he had learned how to be supportive and after a few months more, how to understand.
It's been about 2 years since then. Now he is amazing, and can handle me far better than I can. It's draining on him, but as long as he sees it as worth it, we will both be fine.
However, Bipolar disorder, when I was not diagnosed, pretty much destroyed what little was left of my family relationships. I'm still working on that, but it's hard to move on, and impossible to change the past.

I find having bipolar is very hard on any relationship i have ever had or have now because i can get crazy sometimes and just either be really depressed or very manic and hyper. The depression is the thing that really makes it hard for me and my bf because i push him away emotionally and i do it without even trying to which sucks. He is very understanding though and he knows that my bipolar does not define who i am as a person but still i know it must be really hard on him to have to deal with me. I feel that my family is still kind of weird around me but they get more understanding as time goes on.
