This spring I had a small breakdown and was diagnosed with Bipolar type 2. I was able to get help and get on the right meds (took awhile) and finally feel like I'm on the right track, however, during that time I seriously neglected my relationship of six years with my boyfriend. This summer we started to fight and then 2 weeks ago I found out he doesnt think I'm "the one" anymore. We have decided to try and work on things, because he says he just doesnt feel that special connection anymore, and he says he still respects me and thinks I'm a great person and doesnt want to throw the last six years out in the trash, but he wants to be absoloutely sure. Do relationships come back from this? Or am I just hoping for nothing? Im still deeply in love with him, and am starting to feel great again about my life after a big depression, I just dont want to drag on the inevitable.
I try to tell him that its been really hard, but I can also admit that I was really selfish while I was depressed, and he doesnt know if he'll get those feelings back.
