If he absolutely won't get help, there's nothing you can do. You really don't deserve to have your life ruined because of his refusal to help himself and you. Have you tried talking to him about it during his "highs"? Is he more receptive to it then?

I will tell you that if you could convince him to get help, in the form of therapy, medication, or whatever is necessary, it will make a world of difference.
Oh sure yes I have talked to him in his highs and he will agree at some times to go get help but wont follow through and it seems lately his moodswings have really gotten closer and closer together and its hard to find a good time to talk to him. I am at the point where I am going to leave him. He is at the point where he thinks I need help and not him which is really messed up...thanks for all of your advice everyone I really appreaciate it..and for those who are in my shoes I am glad to know Im not alone..
