Ok so my bipolar boyfriend broke up with
me because he said that he couldnt handle
his head. We are so in love and I know he
just did it because he doesnt want me to
get hurt? Well he told me that he needs
to get himself sorted out and to fix
himself. So I said do what you need to I
am here if you need anything an I love
you. Well the other day he told me that I
should just give up on him and that I do
not deserve to be treated like this!! I
told him that I love him and when I fell
in love with him I fell in love with every
aspect of him, I am here for him no matter
what and something like this is not going
to turn me around and run from him. He is
in his depressive state, but he wont let
me help what do I do???! We love each
other so much but it is killing me that he
doesnt want me anywhere or part of
anything woth him right now. Is this
normal?? Please help

I Am In the Same Situation Posted: 12-14-05 18:26pm
I feel this is the exact situation that I
am in right know. I have been with my
boyfriend for 3 years and 2 months ago he
found out he was bipolar and broke up with
me. I know he loves me dearly. He calls
me every day and still talks about future
plans. But when I try to tell him I want
to be with him, he shuts off and says that
he does not want a comitment. I think
that your boyfriend, like mine is confused
with the illness and need time to cope
with it. Stick with him but don't lose
yourself in the process. You'll now when
enough is enough, when you cant wait any
longer. Everything will work out he way
it should.At lest thats what iam telling
my self!
Have hope but also take care of yourself!

He may just be griefing and that part of
depression... Is he newly or recently
diagnosed as bipolar. Offen newly
diagnosed bipolar fine it hard to deal
with the label of " I have a mental
illness". Just be there for him and give
him support. Tell him he is not along he
more then welcome to send me message and
talk to me.
