I am wondering as I'm reading entries if anyone out there knows about this side of things???
Recently, my Bipolar BF started taking Depakote 500-he seemed ok with this after the first few days (he was suppose to take 1000, but didn't read bottle). The doctor realized it in his blood levels & instructed him to take the 1000. Since then he is extremely irritable & mean acting. He is middle age & his whole life was a mess before he decided to go for help.
I have been with him threw all of this. I am having a hard time myself as being a supporter because of the fluxes & difficult behaviors.
One minute he is happy & affectionate, more into me romantically & the next he makes no efforts & is rude/mean acting toward me like a teenage boy in denial of his feelings.I love him very much, but need to be loved & wanted back & it always feels like he is the only one who matters & I'm on a bad roller coaster.
Does anyone know if he will eventually level out & how long it takes? Thanks:)
