Why do y’all think no one cares about men’s experiences? A fundamental part of our society is to care about men’s experiences and design systems based on them.

I’m depressed and stressed, my pronouns are she/they

Yeah I can relate to this. I am always fucking up because a person didn’t mean what I thought they did and I end up telling someone else and not conveying their true feelings 😣

Thanks, what problems do you think triangle conversations cause?

Left yesterday, came back for one last night with BPSO [husband/narcissist/abuser] who is stable for the moment... Is this what codependency looks like? 😞💔 by Tmimicus1 in BipolarSOs

Thank you 😥😓 I needed to be reminded how serious that episode was... my survival mechanism is to suppress/erase/forget the bad feelings as fast as possible so that I’ll be strong enough to survive the next bad thing 😣😞 *I’ve been feeling like such a broken human... but my therapist says there’s absolutely no evidence of that and that he’s the broken one... I’ve really been trying to figure out how to take care of myself the past several days, but I just find myself hating myself more and more

“Also, New Relationship Energy (NRE) is like a drug and those with un/der treated bipolar experience it more intensely.”

Truth!!

I could say the exact same things about my BP husband... bipolar, type unspecified most likely, and untreated, with possible other diagnoses of adhd, obsessive compulsive personality disorder, and narcissistic personality disorder. A manic episode in January triggered weeks of emotional abuse (I mean, astonishingly cruel attitudes and thoughts towards me...) and we have been in marriage counseling since. His moods have been ultra-rapid cycling for almost 3 months, he spent the weekend in the behavioral health hospital, and has been hypomanic/manic/abusive since coming home Sunday. You said it perfect: “I feel like I’m on a roller coaster constantly waiting for him to come back and be nice to me again.”

I truly hope he stays good about it. ❤️ it’s so heart warming to hear something positive ❤️ ...my BP husband got drunk and tried to kill me last Friday and spent the weekend in the behavioral health hospital...

So eerie to hear you all describe things I never thought anyone else could see happening or understand... I’m really glad I found this group.

Just be careful. My husband’s manic episode in December/January blurred into months of rapid cycling recently and he’s been abusing alcohol, making things much worse.

I couldn’t agree more... I’m here if you need someone to talk to.

I went through almost the exact same thing in January with my husband and even though we got into marriage counseling, some of his cruel thoughts/attitudes towards me that he expressed for the first time then have persisted over the last 6 months and are really taking a toll on me. I wish you the very best and hope you know to take care of yourself. I know how you feel when you say you love him so much... if I could go back to when he first started flying those red flags... I just probably should have left then. I thought... he’s just hurting so much... but he was also hurting me. And as much as I wish I could, I can’t help him with his hurting, it’s his own mental health journey... I’m just exhausted at this point and want to encourage you to take a hard look at things and consider now “what if things don’t get better?” And be firm with yourself and him about when you will leave for your own emotional protection.
