My husband is having a manic episode
Hello, my husband has bp1, when I was dating him I already knew that he had bp1 but I had never lived it, a few days ago we were talking and he told me that his parents verbally and physically abused him when he was a child, he had already told me this before but this time it was different, it was like he repeated the same things over and over again in the conversation until he started talking nonsense and that’s when I figured.
He says to feel free but he doesn’t stop thinking and saying things it’s like his mind doesn’t stop, he says he feels good but he didn’t sleep all night and he want to be in the pool all day, the last episode he had was in 2023 and after a while he started to stop the pills, I feel that I can’t talk to him it’s impossible he’s very irritable and although I try not to contradict him it’s difficult when he want to do what he want to do, I love him so much and is so hard for me to see him like that and caring for him in this moment has been so hard, at least i got him to take the medication and now he is sleeping but wow I feel so drained, we’re just 23 and we trying to start a life together alone for the first time and we’re so far from home right now so I’m basically alone with him and I still need to go to work and I can not even do my job properly in this moment. I need help.
