M[28] I see my GF as part of my treatment rather than a GF
I was diagnosed 7 years ago. I have bipolar and depression and I have a girlfriend of almost 4 years. She had always taken care of me. I met her while I was having an episode. I wasnt particularly attracted to her or admired her but liked the feeling of her attention and care and later and our relationship grew on me. She has a great personality she glowed up throughout our relationship and I became dependent on her care, love and attention. When I was in a neutral/stable state I’ve always wondered how much I can do if I stayed that way or if I was just normal and without condition. I love her as well but I feel its not as much as she feels for me. My gf takes care of herself but sometimes I still wonder if she’s the one or I just love how much she gives me because I still sometimes wonder what kind of girl would I have met if I dated when I wasn’t in an episode or if I was just normal. We have a serious relationship btw
