I started seeing a guy a few weeks back and he told me right from the outset that he was bipolar, but i had not concept of what this means until we were out last night and he went on a low for no apparent reason. After reading several websites and stuff i am getting the idea that this is only the start, and i have no idea what its really like to be with someone thats bipolar. I really like the guy but i am only 18, and i am not sure i can deal with it. Can anyone give me any advice or support on what to do? I have no idea if i should finish it now before i get attached or if i should give it a go!
Dear Shinystar I speak from expierence put an end to this relationship before it goes any farther. I know that he cant help what he has, but you can make a choice to not sign on for all the heartache and disaster. I never knew untill 15 years and 2 children to late.If i had known it could have saved us all so much pain. Even if you hang in for a while it always gets worse and you end up being the one discarded down the road anyway.Please go find yourself a man you can build a secure and sane life with.You are much to young to even imagine what kind of life you are contemplating starting on with this man.Again I know its not his fault, but neither is it yours. Some may be offended and disagree with what I have said but It is all to true as you can see if you read through all these posts. Run! Run! Run!!!!!
