Broken Relationship Due to Bipolar & Adhd
Posted: 06-06-06 07:21am

My gf broke up with me 4 months ago.


We spent alot of time trying to work stuff out. In the process shareing some of the best times we've ever had. However 2 months later she called it fully off. One later (which is also about a month ago today)
i was dignosed with adhd & bipolar.



Shes suffered from depression earlyer on in her life. And is still medicated for it. We where together for a year.


A few weeks after meeting her we where practically living together and where that couple that made everyone in the world jeloues of what we shared. 4-5 months into we started having small probelms that where just seen as nothing to unsual. Things only contined to get worse.



We where deeply in love. But it wasnt working. For reasons that just didnt make sense. Puelry tiny tiny things. These reasons make alot of sense to me now though. I moved out towards the end last year. To see if that would help. We where still always inseperable. We'd already planned the rest of our lives together. It was the real thing. A few weeks before we broke up. We had a large argument on the phone that almost led to a brake up. In replie she sent me a email expressing her undevided love for me. She broke up with me because she needed space. Promising me that we'd get back together. It never happened.



She had mentioned a few times some of the way I acted weren't normal and that I should see someone. Aswell as mentioning a few major things I need to work on in that last email. I took disregarded. I just thought I had faluts in my personality it'll work itself out. I also have rapid-cycling bipolar. And I can idetify quite a few minor and major episodes during our relationship that has seriosuly effected things.



A month ago when I rang her and told her my dignosis her voice lifted so much. And we had the best conversation we've had in month. Later that day she lost her job. Shes already in alot of det. And this couldnt of came at a worse time. We spoke a little over next week. I got a little to pushy and being on a few meds for the first time probably didnt help things.


I wanted to wait a while before trying to talk about weather there was maybe a future still for us. I didnt wait very long. She has her stuff to sort out. So do i. My #1 priority should be me and it is. I couldnt be with her right now it would be silly. But I lover her and want to work this out so there is a strong possablity in the future. The last time we spoke being about 3 weeks ago. She told she couldnt handle this right now. Since then i've only sent a short text msg.

I really have no idea what to do. There is possably a new guy on the scene I don't know. I need to regain some connection or something.


I read all these girls writing on here with concerns for there ill bf's that won't do anything about there condition. And I am doing every thing possable. Never forgetting to take meds. Knowing all the side effects.
Reading, reserching understanding my illness. And from a spouse's point of view! I just have no idea... Any advice would be great!
