@Liz my heart is honestly broke I pour my heart out into our home and son. I even took a demotion at work so he could get a promotion. He promised to help me with my bills. He has just been keeping all of his money, leaving me broke. I am so depressed and lost.
Do you have family/friends you are able to talk to about your relationship? So you don’t feel so alone?
Bipolar disorder can be so difficult. You have to communicate on eggshells and honestly it is so hard. Hoping the best for you ❤️ meds are so important and substance use only makes things worse 😩
I dealt with that with my daughter's father. We broke up cause of it ultimately. He had mental health issues and used drugs and alcohol to cope..unfortunately we can't make people take meds or get help they need as much as it kills us to watch them suffer it comes down to them ultimately. But that doesn't mean u have to stay and put up with it. It's not your fault trust me its not. It's just an unfortunate thing that some people go thru. I had severe depression and anxiety and have tried psych meds I find they don't work for me and make it worse so I just do therapy now. But my daughter's father I tried my best but i also had my daughter to protect and take care of so I chose my child and myself and he chose another woman who didn't let him see his child cause she was in fear and insecure about me and him being alone together. She left him and a month later he overdosed and died. I hope for you guys tho that it gets better and if u feel like it's overwhelming to u and ur son take a break
I wish I had good advice but I don’t. Reading this makes me so sad for you, it is awful what you are going through. If he isn’t willing to make any changes I don’t see how things can get better. Maybe talking to his family and getting them involved could help but that may also make him angry towards you.
