Scared For Bipolar Boyfriend Posted: 05-09-07 09:08am
hello my boyfriend is bipolar and i
witnessed a breakdown yesterday!! I am
scared and don't know what to do. i have
not been in this position before!! He
broke down and told me that he is scarred
of himself and that for the past 3 weeks
that he wants to kill himself and that he
wants to hurt people. I don't know what to
do! I have wanted to break up with him for
the past month but didn't have to heart to
do so. we live together and i'm all that
he has right now. but I ham soooooo scared
and I know that I can't continue to live
like this! PLEASE help me or direct me to
someone that can help me. I can't sleep I
can't eat. it's like I don't even know the
person that I'm living with! I do love
him, but I think that I can provide better
support to him as a friend vs a
girlfriend. Also, he has two daughters
that he can't even see and he is very
reliant on me. in fact he is working now,
but he has to use my car to get there. so
if we break up what will he do? He does
have a great family aand he knows this!
PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE help me! ~Dionna

If he is threatening to hurt you or
others, I would find him help ASAP. There
are many resources for bipolar people,
even low income people around. He could
get on something and maybe get some
therapy as well to get him back on track.
