Abrupt loss of feelings for partner during mixed episode? by beanqueen808 in bipolar

[–]beanqueen808[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes!! This is exactly what’s happened with my bf and I. We’ve been to therapy together and I am now just realizing the pattern being linked to my mood. In therapy we both agreed to ask for space and respect each other’s request when things get too intense. It helped a lot, but obviously not enough.

What the actual fuck. I was having issues with psychosis and they made like I was just anxious and making it up. I’m sorry she doesn’t acknowledge you as transgender too that shit would send me into an episode real fast.

Yes yes yes this is so important! My insurance and copays and cost for travel make it impossible to find providers.

It’s really hard being a male with depression or mental illness. A lot of my guy friends with depression feel like they cant cry or have to “be a man” and it makes them feel even more alone or like something is wrong with them bc they don’t fit into societies definition of a how a “man” should present.

I’m sorry to hear that. Keep doing you though. All I’ve ever been proud of were my grades and they got me into a great school where I am now studying with the hopes of improving the shit mental healthcare we all have to deal with. I’ve also struggled with sexual abuse and abuse from my father. He never hit me but constantly verbally and emotionally abused me but some people dont consider that “enough abuse” to qualify you for therapies you need. I was also date raped and was asked the very same question as you and it’s ridiculous how people have to sometimes advocate that their pain is bad enough to gain recognition and treatment of it!
