[QUOTE="crazymama30, post: 349354, member: 3184"] Get a good attorney. I really do not think that any treatment that is court mandated is very effective, in my humble opinion. The person being treated has to be invested in their own treatment--my husband is BiPolar (BP) and is being treated but is being a royal PITA right now. I am not sure how we will end up. If you are ready for the divorce, then proceed. But you have to be ready and want it. It does not sound like you do. I would then proceed with a legal separation, and tell her if she gets treatment and follows up with treatment for a lenghty period of time (I would do a year, but that is me) because BiPolar (BP)'ers when not treated and sometimes when treated, do not always follow through, then you would consider counseling and then a reconcilliation. I would also tell her she must be compiant with whatever the psychiatrist wants and before you started counseling I would want to meet with her psychiatrist to be sure she is compliant. I spent years with husband before he was treated, and it was hell. I will not do it again. I told him if he is not medicated then he needs to leave. I will not live that way. He said why, he was fine. I told him no you weren't. If my husband gave my dtr a bloody nose? I would be done. He would be gone forever. That is just my opinion on what I would do, and is by no means judgement on your situation. It really hoovers to have to play the peace maker all the time, I have been there done that too many times. My heart aches for you. Good luck, and I would reccomend individual counseling for you. You are in a very hard spot. Feel free to pm me anytime to talk or vent. [/QUOTE]
