bipolar behavior ? Posted: 01-11-08 14:41pm
this guy i was in love with has bipolar
disorder.
well after all this time we've spent apart
yet supposedly "loving" eachother...he
just broke my heart.
he came to visit me for 6 days but forgot
to bring his bipolar meds. so thats six
days without them.
i know the disorder cant ever explain why
we has no heart...but could it have played
a part in how he feels and treats people
he cares about?
we were supposed to get through all
this...grow old together, etc.
i accepted him for who he was. and
overlooked all his faults...including the
disorder.
he recently layed it all on me. that his
ex still has his heart, and that he doesnt
even care anymore, theyre gonna be
together, blah blah blah
he told me its stupid what we've been
doing... trying to make something work
through distance.
he broke my heart and im looking for
answers. can bipolar disorder illicit this
type of behavior?

If he doesn't love you, then you will have
to accept it. If the guys is on bipolar
meds and he hasn't been taking them, his
behavior is more likely to be unusual b/c
he is experiencing a chemical imbalance in
his body. Therefore, he would be less
likely to censor his words.
Is your Ex dating/involved with his Ex?

well according to the cold-hearted message
he left me a few days ago, it sounded
likee theyre together again. or planning
on it.
i sort of understand it now though. i
always knew he didnt completely know what
he wanted. if that girl hes supposedly
"meant to be with" (the same one he told
me was a crazy b*tch) were in my
situation, hed be telling the same things
to her.
i hate men.

Sounds like it's time to grieve & move
past this relationship. Hopefully, you can
grow & learn something from this
situation. Not all relationships are bad
& not all relationships w/ bipolar ppl
are bad. My husband & I have been
together for over 6 yrs & going
strong. The road can be bumpy, but all
marriages have bumpy roads. I have no
doubt that you will learn to love again
once you have gotten over this guy.
Good luck, young one.

yes. i've acted out like that towards my
husband while in a mixed episode, and
totally broke his heart. i was extremely
embarrassed and guilty when i started to
feel more stable. it took years for our
marriage to heal from that. i even
remember the date that it happened. i feel
horrible for acting out like that... like
i didn't love, didn't care, and had no
heart. i actually have a very big heart.
i'm a very caring person and i love my
husband very much. i think your boyfriend
really needed his meds. you may not know
his true intentions until he starts to
stable back out again.
good luck. sorry you got your heart
broken. i hope you guys can work through
this.
