I have been married to my bipolar husband for 25 years and he was just diagnosed last week. All I have wanted is to help him. He is now getting the help he needs and I think we will continue another 25 years. ❤
Hope things worked out.
My wife was diagnosed a few weeks ago & immediately requested a divorce. Emotions severely blunted.
Never had experience with it before. Hoping she improves & hoping things work out for you guys. It’s hard.
My wife has bipolar disorder. She is the most amazing woman I've even known (hence my reason for marrying her). I can relate to everything this couple says in the video. This is a terrific story and I'm happy these two love birds have each other.
What a beautiful comment 🥰 what a guy!
Congratulations for your future enjoy very well
I have bipola and my husband says don't u ever change sal...ur unique and a gift...thats all I need to hear...we are so in love...were 54 and the best decision I ever made marring my husband we've been together 12 yrs 💖 😊
@@sallybush6454 Hugs for you both, he's a wonderful man and you are a wonderful wife! This will always be. Our lows and highs don't last forever, they just circle basically. But everyone that loves us and learns the intricacies of our modes, (that's what I call them, my modes) and they are getting better at ducking and weaving, so to speak lol. I am proud of all of you, this is a horrible disease, but we have family to carry us through our lowest.
The way he looks at her..... Amazing no words but tears... She is so lucky... Thankyou for sharing this
HE'S so lucky. She is COURAGEOUS, embracing HOPE. She is the reason people who isolate themselves due to mental illness WILL NOT DIE PREMATURELY.
No way. She's toxic and a ticking time bomb. Poor guy he's getting in way over his head. She's going to drive him to the pitts of desperation and dispair. Some people deserve to be alone and bipolar folk are one them.
My husband is like him! I'm so blessed. It took 21 years of marriage for me to get really sick with my bipolar. He's been amazing. ❤️
I'm bipolar, and half of the people I've dated were bipolar too. It's been a very intense and emotional experience. I'm not sure if I could do it again, but I don't think a normal person could handle me.
gyneve all you can do is hope there is some one out there that can love you thru the good days AND the bad. Both me and my husband are bipolar, one is unmedicated and sometimes it feels like hell on earth. But we hang in and hold on.
This makes me so happy and sad. I met my gf through my younger sister and we immediately just clicked and had the most wonderful relationship for the next couple of months. Then one day she just messaged me saying that she gave it some thoughts that she would like to end things. It happened so abruptly I could not even process it because days earlier we just bought our flights for a holiday. But she told me that she's given it some thoughts and that it was bothering her for sometime now. I initially took it very personally and wondered what did i do wrong. I even went to a psychiatrist to talk about how I would feel because of how anxious i would become. Then my therapist told me about bipolar and i began reading up on it and everything i read is like a switch just went on in my head because i realise the symptoms that she had was overwhelming. I tried to stay as friend always sending her message of love and encouragement but she was always wary what i wanted from her and she was always very defensive and felt like i would blame her even when i explicitly told her I am not. It's really sad whenever i hear people saying that bipolar people should be avoided because if you've met my gf you'll realise that they're some of the most beautiful people you will ever meet. They feel so intensely and is so empathetic to everything around them but yet they're trapped inside of their head. I love my gf I really do and sometimes she says the meanest things to push me away and it's so painful when you know that this isn't the person you know and love.
Been seeing my girl for 4 months i love her but she abruptly ended things when she was diagnosed a couple days ago but it hurts but what can i do???
@@JJones-oi3jc give her space and time. There is nothing you can do, trust me I've tried to show her evidence of things that didn't happen of which she take it as an offence and will pick out some other problems, I've tried speaking to her father but it backfired as she constantly thinks that I'm out with bad intentions. It's going to take alot of discipline on your end to resist trying to make sense of the situation but you have to accept that you have to be the rational one if you want to be there for her. Don't go in with expectations just monitor her from afar resist contact and just give her the space and time.
@@crapionerdo really good advice.. do they come back around over time?
@@crapionerdo by space and time.. does that mean not texting her or calling her?
@@JJones-oi3jc It really depends and each individual is quite unique. Mental health isn't like regular sickness where the symptoms are rubber stamp similar. I think you just need to read up more on the disorder to better be able to understand it. You also have to accept it that there is a possibility that at the end of it, thing would not turn out the way you want it to be. I understand how frustrating it is trying to make sense of it all but look at it from another perspective, it's equally straining on you mentally and you just can't keep going on like this. I personally see a therapist just to handle all the emotional stress from handling the relationship.
This is a beautiful story. This isn’t most cases tho. She loves her husband even in an episode. She has confidence and isn’t at all insecure. My wife has been insecure thru all her phases of life. Different when you add that to the plate. You guys are so lucky. This video has helped me to keep fighting the fight.
I can relate with what you are saying. My wife is bipolar1, and at a moment she's saying we're bewitching her. It is so hard for me to always be there for her. I love my wife.
What an incredible couple. He is so supportive and genuinely happy for her when she is in her creative space! How beautiful!
I'll never understand it when people who have hereditary disorders keep on having kids. I mean, do you really want them to go through the same thing?
I have bipolar II also and I have to give my husband so so much credit for being there for me.
Yes.. I hope my fiance will be okay. I love him so much and I hate making him so upset.
I'm bipolar and I put so much stresd on my fiance that im afraid I'm gonna lose her. She's all I got and it really sucks when I go to those moods. The hypersexuality joke is fun when your girlfriend is the one with bipolar, I'm not triggered by the joke they made here not that kind of person but as a male with bipolar I struggle with expecting too much from my girlfriend. Came really close to having affairs, I want to be normal , I want this shit out of my head.
I've gone manic and spent thousands of dollars on ideas that went nowhere.
It's hard and I value this videos so much.
Christopher Meneses keep your head up
Keep your head up, mate. Also, medicines help, a good doctor that can prescribe the right meds will make a big difference.
You need Christ in your life a Relationship with Jesus who was God. Prayer helps me . I have BI polar 1 Disorder. I am 31 and struggled with porn which is Adultery, weed, alcohol and wreckless violent behavior driving. Jobs that destroy I dont last . and hurts your brain. Just realize your a sinner For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God; Romans 3:23 For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord. Romans 6:23 And death and hell were cast into the lake of fire. This is the second death.
15 And whosoever was not found written in the book of life was cast into the lake of fire. Revelation 20: 14 -15 Trust Jesus alone to save you today from Hell to Heaven. Jesus who was God died for everyone's sins. For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved. Romans 10:13. Trust God prayer works. He hears He listen's and answers. Then Read the Bible everyday and pray Ask God to find you a Church. Everything. In Jesus Name Amen. And Now your going to Heaven for all Eternity and can never go to hell . You never lose your Salvation even if you fall away. But God will make you so miserable when you sin and go against Him. Glory to the Lord Jesus!
I'm married a bipolar, stressed times always happens to us but I try to understand him and help support him. Now I'm pregnant, we are a happy family.
Christopher Meneses 🤣🤣 33 welcome to the party bro
So proud of you Mehri for sharing your story! Love how your husband is such a supportive partner. Very powerful!
Thanks so much for this. I'm still adjusting to my own Bipolar disorder diagnosis and it explains so much. I've had to reset my dating life and set limits but I'm working on it and everyday is getting better.
Wow, in tears of seeing such a kind hearted man, she is blessed to have him.
I think he married up. She's VERY brave to educate others that it's possible to not be defined by a prognosis. He's the lucky one!
It's going to blow up in his face she's a ticking time bomb.
@John Feenstra I know. I lived it. Bipolar people are too toxic to be in a relationship. They're abusive in their mania. It's either fits of rage or depression. And you want to do the right thing and help them .But it's not your responsibility. And they have no empathy for you they will turn on you in a second and they love to play the victim, and they are wonderful actors.
@John Feenstra where you ever in a relationship with one? I was married to one for 5 years. She was an alcoholic too. And the fucked up thing is that I stayed with her because I thought she was going to kill herself. So I endured the suicide attempts the alcoholism the fits of rage and depression. Depression so bad that she couldn't leave the house for a month. One day on a fit of mania she had me removed from the house. And she's playing the victim saying the whole relationship going south was all my fault, man she's a monster, pure evil who loves to play on people's sympathies . And I fell for it. People have no idea what I had to endure in that relationship wrestling a knife from her because she wanted to kill herself, hiding her meds because she wanted to kill herself. Violently waking me up in the middle of the night because she had mania and flew into a fit of rage. Or just getting drunk and getting mania and becoming super aggressive. And I couldn't leave because I thought she was going to kill herself. And the kicker is that she actually kicked me out of the house. But then I realized why do I care so much about someone who is trying to destroy me. She has zero empathy. Just uses people and manipulates them by playing the victim. Oh I'm sick I had a terrible child hood I'm going to kill myself. And of course she's on goverment assistance so she's fine living by herself. And now that she's by herself and no one to fight with she's hasn't killed herself. So she ruined my life. Me giving up my house and my sanity to help this woman. And now I lost my job my house and she's thriving. And when I first met her I genuinely wanted to help her. The only silver lining is that she's out of my life and I couldn't care less if she kills herself or not.
@@carlosr3523 sounds like mine.ive lost my house close to losing my job
I'm SO glad I found this! All of the previous RUclips channels were doom and gloom when it comes to bipolar disorder. I met someone I'd really like to know better. I know to take it slowly, to keep the focus on him and how he feels (and I'm glad to report that this feels quite natural). I'd be happy simply to be his friend and nothing more. I don't want my own struggles with bipolar to impact him.
Perhaps if you can start there please don't allow you mental strain to get in the way of something that might be meant to be.
Being bipolor is such a strain on a relationship. It's too late for my marriage. Wish I got help sooner.
jerry KRZTON same here
Hope you're well, my man.
Same here. I wish I knew about my illness and could advocate for myself/my health before my husband went to another woman.
I'm so sorry Jerry x
@@maureendaniel6378 You may find help for him. But it will never fix him. It is too late to say this to you because you love him but here it is- My advice to you is run run run. This sickness will destroy you if you let it.
Well I'm going to marry a bipoler person. my family said not to. But I'm in love. You guys give me hope
Hey Tom,
Check out my facebook facebook.com/groups/147529262564460/ - I'd love to hear your story about how you met and how you cope/manage with the aspects of bipolar in your relationship.
Tom Johnson me too! This restores my faith in us.
❤
Tom Johnson This Gene can be passed down to your children.Life is hard enough without mental health,why make it harder for the next generation?
Hope you realize what your in for ...I know all about it it"s gonna be tough at times, good luck.
Wow... this was beautiful. Seriously almost brought tears to my eyes. I got diagnosed with bipolar type 2 recently and it's been hard with me and my husband but I love him so much and I will keep fighting for this amazing life
Beautifully said
That's all we can do ❤
I was diagnosed with bipolar 2 & half years ago .ever since by diagnosis my fiancé been acting different .this gives me hope that some day we can be happy like this
I too have bipolar,-type 1 its amazing at times the range of emotions I can feel from soaring highs to deep dark depths of depression and despair. I only wish I could find another person who is as supportive of you as your husband is of you. May you continue to have success on your journey in what you struggle with.
If you cannot be strong on your own you will not be able to strengthen others. Finding another person will not be the solution to your problems. HE is the lucky one. She is using this responsibility as a TEACHER. She's amazing, praise be to God!
Amen
You can have a normal happy full fill life with this condition your story is inspirational for all who have this condition God Bless you and all your family
You have a supportive husband. That makes all the difference.
What an amazing way for BOTH of you to cope and understand. I am bipolar and I have an amazing wife as well. It's tough on both ends and it takes what you both and my wife and I are lucky enough to have...each other...keep it up...you are the only way the stigma will ever change
My partner is undiagnosed, but every piece of information I educate myself on, points directly to bi polar. When I read peoples comments they reflections of my current life. I’ve been with my partner for 6and half years and the condition has peaked within the last 6 months dramatically. One day I am the love of his life his best friend his everything then the very next day or even within the same day I am the most despised person on the planet. I am genuinely looking for other people living with a partner who has this condition and I am begging for help and support to understand this and how to best get my partner the help he so desperately needs. I will not give up on my partner.

Thanks for making this video. I should know that being bipolar isn’t easy without support. Glad you have the support you need!
Me in a nut shell... Thank you for sharing this. Just wish some of my friends and family understood me.
have you even tried to explain what is bothering you?
This was the sweetest story I have seen ...ever. Thank you two for being an example. I wish both of you many years of everyday awesomeness.
Oh so incredibly beautiful!! I love this video so much!!! I’m In tears! The last words he said “ this marriage is going to last til the day we die, that’s how we are doing it!”
Oh the tears flooded my eyes!!
Ah! This makes me so happy. After watching this it makes me less scared to involve my husband in my bipolar.
this comment section freaks me out. is it possible to have a healthy long term relationship with Bipolar?
I felt in love with a beautiful man that I dated. He is so sweet, smart, kind, fun and caring. He is such a beautiful soul. He rejected we go further as he does not want to drag me into his life. He wants the best for me and he plans to live by himself forever. This breaks my heart. But liking a person is to possess him. Loving a person is to wish the best in him, which even includes the letting go. I m now so into knowing more about bipolar so that I want to be a close friend to this person for the rest of my life. His disease does not define who he is. His soul does. I wish all people well in this world with no sufferings. I hope he can feel my love to him while this won’t give him pressure.
This is my life as well. Thank god someone loved me enough to tell me that there is something wrong with me.
I lived with my partner for 7 yrs. this couple look to happy to talk about what it is really like.
I feel like i lived in hell. If they are a real couple all the best to them.
I sure believe you went through hell from what closed ones have gone through. Maybe shes on the right medication. However, those that arent can really make it very difficult for the people around them.
Unfortunately, I am the spouse of a man with Bipolar. Undiagnosed at the time, he was sexually inappropriate. Having someone explain hypersexuality is one of the only things that helps keep me in the marriage. He is now on the correct meds and is back to the man I met. Thanks for your honesty.
Just watched this and can relate. I'm literally in tears.
Not every bipolar person has the same symptoms. My hubby has BP but doesn’t get hyper sexuality. But my ex fiancé did. Yes, you’d think I would have seen the signs from my ex fiancé but my hubby now didn’t show signs until we got married and found out we were pregnant 6 weeks after honeymoon. Maybe it was a trigger? Back then he wanted to give the baby up even though he was 38! But now he’s the best dad to our 3 kids and would never think those thoughts . When he’s sane, he’s amazing. When he’s manic, he’s very emotionally abusive to me
Stay strooong
Ok this video was shot with the production slick of a drug commercial...but I give so much credit to the parties involved for being two faces of bipolar. Wow...the honesty needed to discuss mental illness in such a way. Wow. Thank you. Especially the wife for her artistic expressions of what it feels like to be bipolar and the husband to say you wouldn't run from someone suffering physical illness...just wow.
I have a bestfriend with bipolar disorder but she is the best thing that ever happen to me, props to the husband for being understanding
Sorry to burst everyone's bubble, but ninety percent of bipolar marriages end in divorce. As someone with Bipolar II, I will never get married knowing those odds. It would be a waste of time for both parties. Am I wrong?
My wife is rapid cycling. Everything on this video seem kind of vague to me. For us, her depression will focus on me. That I am the one who is causing everything. It is so hard to hear the things I am accused of. She makes me admit to things that are just not there. It's wearing me out. I'm now having to decide, "Is it really all worth it?" Two suicide attempts in one month, all blamed on me. I can tell, now, when it is starting. Her face totally changes. Then I know...she will focus on something about me that is so trivial and make it into some huge thing. We will have to talk about it all night. Round and round. Always the same. I have to "admit" that I'm horrible. I'm not perfect, but not the monster I'm accused of being.
At what point does my own well being outweigh the abusive behavior of the one claiming to be the victim?
Stay strong man
She's very lucky has the best love & support from her family that's the best medicine anyone can have, I wish u guys all the best in the future #australia :)))))
I’m glad you guys work together so well. I’m always scared my partner might leave me because I can’t change the way I am . But it’s been 3 years and he still loves me
This gives me hope..
I’m recently diagnosed and dating the most incredible guy. Thank you for the inspiration for a healthy relationship and marriage. Blessings ♥️
This video is sooo helpful. Thank you so much. I married a person who after only 2 years had a psychotic break, and has suffered with manic depression for 43 years, but in denial. I was a nurse and wanted to support him, but did not always know how. 25 years into the marriage, he began to have more breaks, and say he wanted a divorce. I didn’t know that this was his illness. We divorced in 2001, and his mental health has declined greatly. All of our 3 children are affected, and 2 have mental illness. It has been a very difficult road. I do not think I could have made it without GOD.Anxiety plagues me, like watching for the shoe to drop, or the tornado to pass through. There need to be more collaboration for redefining healthy boundaries and support of family, who suffer also with this devastating illness. Thank you. I admire you both that you are so happy, committed and loyal.
I enjoyed listening to both of you. My mom has bipolar disorder and I pray for her. I'm trying to help her and it's hard but I can't give up. I do like her boyfriend and he deals with her alot more than me. I give him credit for being a great guy standing by her. She needs to realize that she is sick but I can only do so much I'm trying hard not to give up. Thank you for this story, it gives me hope and faith 🙏
I am a bipolar. And i hope. . Someday. . I can meet with someone who undersrand me and merry too. Bipolar disorder is not a desire. We are different but don't stay away from us.
I’ve ruined so many relationships because of my bipolar & I was beginning to think a marriage might never happen for me. This gave me hope but at the same time made me feel worse because I should’ve been able to work through it& push through it like you guys have but instead I gave in to my bipolar symptoms & didn’t acknowledge that I was in a manic state of mind.
Mykayla Carter it’ll be alright. God has a plan for u.
Stop the self loathing and self judgement. Make declarations of TRUTH everyday and use pain as a teacher! You will be stronger and braver for it!
Me 2. But as long as we have breath in our body we can start anew. There are 9 billion people in the world. There is someone out there for both of us
Mom Kayla. I just came across this video and your comment. I am 60 years old and my fiancé is 43. She has bipolar disorder. I love her and honestly neither of us ever thought we’d marry someday. I have a rare connective disorder that affects me daily We see God’s hand in our life long struggles and preparing us for marriage. These words may seem hollow, but when the time is right God will put an incredible man who is prepared to love you as you deserve and how you can love yourself enough to love them. Be patient, be kind to yourself and some day you will be gifted with a special person who matches the special person you are. Embrace your singleness now and how you can be a light in the lives of others. Be a blessing to others and God will bless you beyond your comprehension. Trust me I know from the experience I have marrying my best friend, my desire and my beautiful redhead who keeps me on my toes. I wish the best for you!!
After 4 years are you married?
This gives me hope that I also will have loving relationship one day. Been working really hard to understand my bipolar diagnose.
I wish my wife would watch.
I have never cared and loved anyone more....but she has pushed me so far away...I can't go back 😢
I’m close
What a beaitiful video ! You guys are like my wife and I :) She was diagnosed as being NORMAL, and im diagnosed with the Bipolar. Lol
TBI induced Bipolar
TBI induced Dementia (Frontotemporal Dementia)
Our marriage is going on 12 years now and could not had been so blessed in life !
You guys rock !! :)
This is an amazing story, thank you for sharing. Your husband is amazing and probably can give a lot of insight to other spouses and loved ones. I dated someone for a long time and they never attempted to learn more about my illness. You are an inspiration.
It wasnt until 15 years of marriage that i found out that my husband is bipolar only because we found out his father has it. My husband kept on trying tell me that i had mental problems when i knew i didn't. He finally excepted it but doesn't get treatment, its so hard being married with a person that has mental issues. He can be so mean, it has been very hard on my grown boys. But they understand he has a mental condition.i love my kids but i wish i would have never married him.
I'm bipolar thankyou for sharing I want to meet a understanding man like that. You have given me hope.
i can feel her, because im facing this bipolar disorder🥺🥺🥺
I am so happy for you and I realize the key was the diary.. There is nothing worse than witnessing your relationship being destroyed, almost as if watching helplessly through a window and nothing you can do to help them, or yourself.. For some, it is too late...
I hope the man I marry one day understands me and my bipolar like the love and understanding you have here. This is so great!😩😩❤️❤️😭
It sucks when I'm the normal spouse and understand everything about Bp1. 14 year's with my wife been to hell and back, saved her countless times. Unfortunately my BP wife will never become self aware! And that's something I have to understand.
He is a saint. I had a bipolar 1 girlfriend, trust me, hell on earth...
My ex is bipolar and unmedicated she can be so special but also so hateful at the same time. We still live together and help each other but when it comes to intimate moments she is so cold. She just went to my mother's funeral and really helped me through it but later it's like never happened.
I would do anything for her thank u for these videos they really help me understand
I can’t totally relate to you! I love him with all my mighty heart but most times it’s me that feels isn’t enough. He can be so cold and doesn’t seem to bother him, it hurts me deeply, we’re not intimate at all, I don’t know what to do anymore
I’ve been with my wife for 10 years. She was diagnosed with BP this year and we have been through the most difficult of times. Lately she says she’s not in love with me and has been very trying. We have been close to divorce but are trying to keep the flame alive. I don’t want to loose her.
You're so nice
I am so glad I found this video. Really gives me hope!
I'm so thankful I came across this video :) I love my future husband He is an amazing man, was recently diagnosed But God is so awesome and brought us together. This gives me so much HOPE
My brother had Bipolar disorder ...so I hope he'll fully cure oneday 🙏🙏
I had a 5 years relationship before i know and diagnosed with bipolar. It had been hectic and toxic relationship to me and my ex. But after been aware of having bipolar, i know what to control, avoid and what can i do to help me to get in control of my episode more and more. As a bipolar person, you can have a good and healthy relationship in life. You just need to know what kind of person who can understand you.
Thank you so much for sharing your story, it's wonderful to have someone who understands and stays by your side! ❤️
As someone with bipolar things like this give me hope
I wish I would’ve known that that was what was wrong with me after I lost my 19 year marriage lost my home lost my children lost my career for a while went homeless was in a shelter all because we got divorced last year and we did not know what was wrong with me over the last year I have been diagnosed with bipolar and we are trying medicine to see what helps I appreciate your story and I wish that my ex-husband would’ve been as supportive and wanted to figure out what it was and see how he can help it’s unfortunate we’re divorced now because we have four beautiful children
Mandi Hall i’m sorry :(
My ex-boyfriend was also bipolar. He's been out of touch for over a week now. I could understand everything about his illness, but I couldn't help myself to go around meeting other women and cheat on me. He's fed up with hiding behind bipolar disorder and wanting to understand, so if you really love someone, please don't cheat on him. Don't call it an illness. Before you do that, go to the hospital and get a checkup. Please, I'm cursing me who loved him so much, but now I've made the choice to meet him. Please. If you love someone, please don't.
What he say's is absolutely true, i can't do anything to make him come put of his situation... and he shut me off completely.... not talking... am worried.. yet have confidence in him that he will be able to get through it....
Fantastic short video...thanks for sharing!
Thank you so much for this
This is a very hopeful video. Thank you so very much.
It’s being 10 years of back and forth ; this is too late and my son and I are leaving her and it’s sad.
Beautiful! Thank you, this helps us understand mental illness - something we can not see
Touch wood...such a loving caring husband, n such a bold woman u are to share your story. I am so much in love with a guy having bp but the problem is he abuses alot n degrade me to any extend, I don't want to stay away from him but I have to as he drained me emotionally n I feel trapped in relationship with him..I don't knw what to do, I just feel I can't live without him.. 😥😖😞
Shalini K are you sure it's bipolar? Research borderline personality disorders, cluster b or type b specifically. For yourself, look into trauma bonding, complex and severe ptsd. I'm bipolar unspecified and have suffered horrendous emotional and physical abuse for the last four years. What you're describing sounds very familiar. I have a psych degree, but I'm no expert. However, what I'm suspecting is Narcissistic Personality Disorder, which is extremely hard to diagnose, and if depression is a factor, he could be the introverted, otherwise referred to as "covert" or "shy" narcissist. I strongly urge you to research it. There are RUclips channels and limitless websites devoted to helping victims of narcissistic abuse. Leave as soon as you can. It will never change, and there is no medication that will help, and even the best psychotherapists struggle to effectively treat it. Get help for yourself instead. I recommend starting with life coach and abuse survivor Angie Atkinson, which how you find her RUclips channel. She has a Facebook support group page as well. Best of luck and be safe.
Thank you for sharing, I have bipolar and it's weird adjusting to the diagnosis
This situation is so rare. Bipolar people can have good times. But many like my husband can be toxic and even violent. I have a protective order against my husband right now. He’s unpredictable and has caused irreversible damage to our finances and our children. I’m having to live with his family right now because of my husbands mental illness. Please think twice before marrying and being with a person who is bipolar. Love doesn’t always help things while you’re with someone who is bipolar
That's your experience. This is not helpful its stigmatizing
@@moonbabyhealing No, she is right I have this illness and I encourage anyone with it to never get married or have children this illness needs to die so nobody will suffer from it
You both sound like myself and my husband. It takes patience, communication and friendship to make it work! We've been together almost 18 years and married almost 16. ❤️ it cam be done!
Love!
It's crazy because I've already followed your insta before I watched this
Thank you for this.... thank you so much.
Very nice work of the the creators of this video ! camera work ,editing , directing , producing and writing ! and Mehri and Logan you guys rock !

What a wonderful husband.
My wife had a 4/5 day hypo-manic episode 3 months ago and we got through it while her work also had her speak with a therapist. She is having another episode this week; I am looking at how to find answers and what questions to follow up with. last time it was a little over 4 days, she expressed she had "forced episodes" to scare off people or groups who were being mean in high school. but 4 months ago was the first time i had seen it in our 12 years together. She is on day 4 today and just trying to figure out what to look for and questions to ask. But, I haven't noticed the depression side but maybe an occasional quiet/ sad day with regular functioning.
They are way too happy for bipolar.Mine was bipolar and I was hated all the time!!
Everybody is different
My ex bipolar bf broke up with me during a mixed episode I’m hoping we reunite and things are beautiful b/c he’s a wonderful man he loves me so deeply and I accept him for all that he is. This gives me hope things can work 🥺
This gives me so much hope ...... ❤️
That was super sweet and encouraging thanks guys!💕
My husband was once married to someone who is bi-polar and his ex is crazy. They have been divorced for 8 years. I've been married to him for 2 years. She is constantly jealous of his new life. She was jealous when my our daughter was born a year ago. The ex is constantly blaming him for everything. They have a 10 year old son together and fills his head with who knows what. When he doesn't want to come to our house she thinks the worst. I have 3 children from my previous marriage and am a first grade teacher. My first husband passed away so I have no clue what it's like to be divorced. My husband's ex sends him inappropriate texts and called him crying recently at 5 in the morning because her boyfriend broke up with her. I can't stand the women and cannot wait until my stepson is of age so we can be done with her. My husband said she was unbearable to live with and be married to. He was only married to her for 6 years. I'm just seeing first hand at what this mental illness does to people and it's not good.
I have bipolar 1. I want to have a love like this.
My wife was just taken in to a facility for 5150. I have so much guilt for putting her there and not supporting her or seeing that it was getting this bad. This video helps me understand and gives me hope.
Don't feel bad. Its for her sake and other people around her. Do I g the right thing shouldn't be questioned.
I felt this on so many levels it helps me realize alot about what my wife is going through on a daily basis 😭❤
So awesome to find a partner who supports and understands💖💖
Being a life partner is far more easier than having a bipolar parents..... Children suffered a lot... Its not their choice to be in the situation. But who will have the responsibility of their mental health.....
she's so pretty :)
Congratulations. I am happy to see successful couples despite the negative consequences Bipolar Disorder can have in marriages. However. I was expecting some insights into the how tos of the successful marriage, but there was no tips given out in this video. Many videos are made to show the problems and the end results but not too many videos are made for revealing the steps one can take to start managing and controlling Bipolar Disorder. Nevertheless, watching this video inspired me to create my own videos in which I can give out a few tips to those who suffer from Bipolar Disorder since I too have Bipolar Disorder.
This video is so good, thank you for posting this...my wife left me recently due to this illness, but I will be okay.
Thanks again guys
Bipolar since 2001. I’m 34 and single and have no plans of marrying.
Better you don't marry bro. I wish good luck to you
I will never marry a woman because if I truly loved her I wouldn't subject her or my children to this
You guys are awesone and your lucky to have a guy like that in your life. Kudos to you guys
That is so beautiful 😻!!!! God blessing them
