[QUOTE="Abbey, post: 19990, member: 179"] I would never suggest that someone 'abandon' a spouse/partner, but I wonder if she is willing to get further help, or is willing to do so. It's obvious that whatever she is doing now is not working, hence her husband's concerns. Maybe some medications adjustment? From what I understand, and I am in NO sense an expert on bipolar, but with proper treatment things can be quite good. I hope she's getting good treatment. I am most certainly living with a person who is bipolar/manic depressive. He refuses any kind of treatment (or evaluation), but I make a daily choice to go down that road. There are many times it's not an easy one, and I constantly question my choice of remaining here. It's a daily battle. I think if I knew back then what I know now, I may not have stayed. Sad to say, but if you refuse any kind of help, you leave the partner to think about things like this. As I said before, I hope she's getting proper help so her husband knows she is at least trying. 2 cents Abbey [/QUOTE]
