Try educating your wife on Bi-Polar, she might understand your mood swings are caused by an illness and it is not a true reflection of who you are. If that dont work try smoking a joint, that will calm your mood.I have bi polar and no medicines can control it! help me!?
Hi, you need to call a MD doctor that BIPOLAR is their specialty,


my husband has the disease and yes it is a disease that you can't control by yourself, you need medicine and therapy and so does your wife with help you and your marriage can make it. Good luck and God bless.
First of all, don't give up! Talk to a psychiatrist about meds. There's so many options out there. Evetually something will help at least a little bit. Therapy is really important to. A therapist can give you tips on learning to control your moods. Sometimes you won't find the right therapist right away but keep trying, the right therapist is out there. Definitely do some research and show it to your wife. It's important that she knows what you're going through. Keep trying and work as hard as you can at getting better. The medications will definitely not do everything. It takes a lot of work on your part to. But I'm getting better so you can too.
See a doctor-maybe Lithium will help balance you.
joe, if have had this desease since i was very young, now i am 56.....i have lost wives and relationships over it.. kepp trying meds and combinations of meds, believe me, it is usualy luck if u find the right medical person to help u and same with the meds....also sounds like u r somewhat paranoid and also maybe a phobia..maybe....your wife needs someone to talk to her about your illness..i find if people show they care about u, it helps more than meds sometimes,, i have not worked a real job since 1989. and i was a professional person.. exercise and diet realy help, but only if u stick with it and make yourself do it!!!!good luck and never give up!!!!hey, i always say, they may do brain transplants someday!!!!
Try going to see a neurologist. Bi-polar is a disorder that affects the brain and sorry, but neurologists know the brain better than psychiatrists. Also, if you are not on a med that is working, then it might be making you worse. Invite your wife to go with you to the docs so that you can each ask questions and get educated. Good luck and don't give up!
i have the same disorder and i feel the same way! i get so frustarted at my doctor because they just keep changing med all of the time.i am on lithium and i dont feel like it is doimg any different. i suggest being persistent with ur doc in saying this isnt working!
Let yourself into a psychiatric hospital so you can get the right medicine...once you do that, you will feel so much better. I almost died because I had the wrong medicine.
get into some good talk therapy as well as meds they don't work as well when you use one without the other :)
Pretend that you are a researcher on bi-polar disorder. Track down every book and every scientific article. Note who wrote the bi-polar section in DSM-IV (this may be all you need to do). Take note of all of the author's names. Search the Internet for every major author and find one that is within a day away from where you live. Visit that person or consult by phone and tell that person what you have written here. Be specific about what happened when you were on medication and how you know that you are bi-polar. Sometimes the average psychiatrist can not treat a difficult case.
There are now hundreds of antidepression medications available. You may want to keep trying to find one that works. Do not stay away from the mental health professionals; bipolar is not something you can handle on your own or expect amateurs to completely help you with. Meds, a therapist %26amp; a support group are smart investments for you.
The comment you are about to read is not designed to send you over the edge: For someone who claims to have been an honor student, your spelling and grammar reads like elementary school level. What's up with that?





Now, to the more serious issue. Does your wife know you are bipolar? You make it sound as though she doesn't. What medications have you tried and have you consulted with your doctor to see if he/she can adjust the dosage or try something else? Are you staying on the medication as prescribed?
