Ok so my boyfriend jsut had a major crash with an attempted suicide from being off his meds for too long. Needless to say he spent sometime in the hospital and got his meds back on track. I just hope that he takes them now because i will not be with him if he is not taking them. Anyhow, he has been out of steady work months and months. He had a job at a gym that he quit and when he went to get payment from them (this has happened before) he said the place stiffed him on his money and is not gonig to pay him. After last week and all the things that went with him in hte hospital i am having such a problem with trust with him. I know that sometimes people with bipolar disorder can tend to lie a lot if they are not stable? I am not sure if that is right but that is what I have been told. He is also slacking on finding another job. Can being bipolar effect him having or wanting a job? I work fulltime and I am in nursing school he is not doing anything presently and what he was donig before he can not anymore because he has an injury( hes a pro athlete). So once again I would like to hear what you guys have to say. Thank you all for everything!
