My husband and I will be celebrating our second year in marriage this month... and I believe our gift to each other will be divorce papers.

I love my husband very much, I only wish his moods were a bit more stable. I think he is still taking his meds, but the doctor abruptly took him off of Lithium and started Abilify and of course.... he failed to refill his Lamictal and "forgot" he wasnt taking it until a couple of weeks later....

As an adult I have been dealing with slight anxiety and depression, but since I have been dealing with my husbands and his many mental health issues I have become extremely depressed. Everyday I wake up and hope I will wake up to the man I fell in love with, only to be disappointed by the end of the evening I have to deal with Mr Hyde instead. Last night I found myself dodging a glass of milk he decided he needed to throw into the room I was at.

As a woman I know I need to set my boundaries and stick to them... but if that were the case I would have been a single woman two years ago. How much is a person to take before it is abuse? When is enough enough?

I dont discuss these issues with my family because I do not feel like they need to be involved. I dont discuss these issues with his family cuz we dont speak to each other.... The apple doesnt fall far from the tree.

I am ready to walk away from my relationship and lose it all... my husband, my home, my world.... and my heart hurts just thinking about it. I feel so alone. I started attending a support group for people affected by bipolar, but I find myself feeling more grateful when I am leaving because I have a job, a roof over my head.... I am not sure this group is offering me the support I need....
