Distancing myself(16M)
over last weekend I learned some things about my dads past and how hes delt with situations by blaming his bipolar and not taking accountability for his actions, and even last weekend he was an asshole to my girlfriend and made her cry and not want to go over to my house ever again, and I was just wondering if i would be justified in that situation. Other things that hes done just to name a few are choking someone in my family then saying he never did it until he was sent to the psych ward which then he apologized. He apparently also has a trouble staying on his meds and just knowing the fact that hes done that is enough to make me nauseous.
Knowing all of that makes me fear for if I do have bipolar, ik people are gonna say that at least I know what the extremes of bipoalr are but what if I hurt someone I love and they dont ever talk to me(justifiably).
I am not afraid of what I am but what I could be.
