Any advice on relationships with a male who has been diagnosed with Bi-polar Manic Depressive disorder?

He has been hurt by his ex in the past..%26amp; I sometimes feel as tho I am trying to pick up the pieces of what is left of him. Is it possible for him to have a functional relationship?Any advice on relationships with a male who has been diagnosed with Bi-polar Manic Depressive disorder?
I found my bipolar boyfriend 9 years ago. He was homeless, heartbroken and depressed. I helped him to apply for Social Security Disability, and today he is has a good pension and is doing fine on his medication.





There are about 2 times during the year when he has a manic episode and they last about 2 weeks. During that time he temporarily loses touch with reality and I have to be very patient and loving. He gets angry and verbally abusive but I understand that's the illness talking and it's not really directed at me personally, but the whole world.





Today we have a functional relationship and so can you. Learn what you can about bipolar disorder so you are aware of what you're getting into. Good luck!Any advice on relationships with a male who has been diagnosed with Bi-polar Manic Depressive disorder?
Of course it is! Bipolars are very sensitive individuals. They love very deeply and hence get hurt deeply.





Give him plenty of unconditonal love. You'll heal all his pieces.





In addition, make sure he's under a doc's care.





You can definitely have a loving and long-term relationship with this man. Don't let anyone tell you otherwise.
Teach him what you already know about life or leave him alone.
I to was in a relationship just like this. and the answer is NO!


Because if he has been hurt so bad that U need to pick up the pieces.... then you have a problem. Because if you have not gotten over and re-found your self and made your self new again then it is difficult to move on.


It is going to be very difficult for him to function.
Get him some medication for this. Goto www.dirtcheapmedications.com they have cheap medication and next day delivery.

Yes it is if he can keep his BiPolar under control with meds.
If he is on medications make sure he takes them, if he isn't get him to a psychiatrist and get him started.


Then, do some research and find out all you can about the disorder so you will understand his behaviors.


He would also likely benefit from cognitive behavioral therapy.
