what can i do to hold my relationship together ? my girl friend has bipolar . sometimes it gets hard to do.?


Question:


Answers:
My sister is bipolar, among other things. The hardest thing for me to do is to seperate my sister from her disease. It's a fine line to cut her slack when she needs it and not release her from all accountability. Remember that her disease isn't about you, or motivated by you. That makes those weird things she does and says easier to live with. If she isn't medicated, make that a priority. An unmedicated bipolar is similar to an addict in that they crave the creativity and energy that comes with the highs in their cycles - until they medicate, one way or the other (natural vs. pharmacutical) it is nearly impossible for them to start to evolve as people.
get her to take some meds prescribed by a psychiatrist, bipolar people have trouble with relationships, jobs, friendships, some people even collect disability because they can't function in society. Unless she is medicated, run... By the way bipolar people tend to abuse alcohol and drugs.
