The man i love is a recovering ex drug addict. three years clean.I would struggle with some of His behavior and ask why,of course He would always blame it on the "disease" of His addiction. After a few months i could look at the calender and think, Ok, We have had a great three weeks, He is about due to turn into the "other" Michael. I knew it was more than His addiction, i would tell Him over and over, if it is the addiction, why is Your behavior still the same as when You was using. One night i googled for Bipolar and noticed a few things. Then i googled for Bipolar with addiction. He has EVERY symptom, it was unreal. That was 2 weeks ago and He has since stopped talking to me, acting like i never existed. I never signed up for this kind of ride with Him. I can only hope He gets dual treatment. NA is a great program,but all is does is keep Him clean.
Insanity-repeating the same mistakes and expecting different results.
