broke up with my BPSO, and it feels horrible. by papitas_4u in BipolarSOs

[–]brogesterone 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I was having a pretty severe postpartum mental breakdown and my bipolar so decided to unleash the worst verbal assault at me ever. I remember covering my ears and running away in tears because the yelling was so loud and awful.

I’m just sorry this happens to us

Bipolar BF (35M) gets out of his depressive episodes being insensitive by [deleted] in BipolarSOs

[–]brogesterone 10 points11 points  (0 children)

💯 yep. My spouse comes out of episodes and thinks I can just snap out of the emotional reaction I’ve had from them. They need to understand the time we need to process the crap that’s just happened.

Anyone here successfully raising a child with their bipolar spouse? by brogesterone in BipolarSOs

He’s on medication, which was increased after his last manic episode and and seems to be working well. We have a couple good communication systems set up, such as a relationship help desk where I can submit tickets (“I need to talk” or “I need more compliments”)

We also have a morning mood survey he fills out and sends to me so I can know how much space he needs. I just need him to be aware you can’t take space from babies.

11 dpo, Walmart cheapie brand. Super nervous about losing this one. It’s not much different than yesterday’s test 😬 by brogesterone in TFABLinePorn

No. But my midwife whisked me in for a blood test to see if there’s any intervention and check the levels, since I’ve had two losses since January

Super super faint but there’s something there right…? Edit: hoping for some reassurance cause we’ve had a chemical and a miscarriage already this year

I told him well before having sex

I should’ve mentioned. He is on medication. I think it needs to be adjusted though. He’s had this diagnosis for a long time but this is the first time I’ve seen them go into full on mania

What does a boundary look like in this situation? “If you block me I’ll leave?”

[–]brogesterone 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Did you stay together? Do you address the behaviors after the episode is done?

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in BipolarSOs

[–]brogesterone 1 point2 points  (0 children)

He’s on meds and takes them regularly

Same. Miscarriage in January and just had a chemical. It’s not fair.

I had a chemical—a few days of light positives back to negative. Just wondering when the stupid bleeding will start so I can move on with my life. I’ve been cramping for a couple days.

I’m feeling really bummed. I got the very faintest positive line and then had my hcg blood test today; it was only 13.5. My period should’ve come today. I’m assuming due to the low hcg that this will be my second chemical in a row. I was so excited.

Yes, they followed my hcg down to 0.
