Does Anybody Feel This?

I hope that this blog can do what I want it to: save my life perhaps? Sometimes I feel so low myself that I think that I need to start stealing my wife's medicine. Most of the time I run around like some kind of madman because I have to do both of our jobs in this life quite often. Oops, gotta go for now. She's calling my name.

Hello,

I read your blog and think my husband can relate. I am bi-polar and was diagnosed back in April after admitting myself into the hospital. I spent months on the couch doing only what I had to do. I was a stay at home mother of 3. By the time my husband came home I went back to bed and he became mother and father. For me it was just not mental but also physical. I physically had no energy to do anything. My husband would get on me about everything I didn't do. But the times when I had the energy I would get up and do everything I could but it was expected. For me I would get rage periods, then major depress periods, I can take on the world periods, and then I realized this was my never-ending cycle of life long misery. When I read "Oops, gotta go for now. She's calling my name." That is the same thing my husband said when I then realized I needed to be in the hospital. You are not the only man that is going through this. I would have to admit that I am putting the love of my life through the same misery. Right now my husband is not home. But I will be telling him of your blog. I wish I had something that I could say that would help. But I think it would be good for my husband to have someone else on the other side of the condition understand what he is going through as well. We don’t really have friends just family. Which telling them anything does not help. I have never talked about my condition to anyone other then my husband but for me. When I went to the hospital and got my meds setup. I came out with my eyes opened and aware of my husband and what he has gone through. This condition is a major strain on marriage. I don’t chat or write to blogs. I just look up information that can help us get through this. I hope that everything gets better for you and your wife. Hang in there
