I don't want him to go,...He is getting proffessional help and on meds. I just pray, everyday, for God to give me the strength to get through this.

How long have you been married

I have bi polar disorder and even though I knew it, I refused to call the doctor because I didn't want to admit that I have to live on meds for the rest of my life. I wanted to be "normal". Adam and I would fight all the time and some were really bad. Our last big fight he told me that it was obvious that I didn't love him at all or else I would have gone to the doctor a long time ago. I calmed down when he said that then I called the doctor. I got meds and was doing really well but then I quit for about a month or so and the fighting started again. Finally I started back up again after about a week of constant irritation between the two of us. Now I'm back to being "me" again and everything is better. I know it's tough living with somebody bipolar. My dad was bipolar so I know what it's like. I also know what it's like to be bipolar and believe me, it's harder than anyone can imagine. I have no problem talking about the disorder or what I've been through and I'm certainly not ashamed. It's a disease like everything else.

Anyways, back to the OP (sorry), I'm sorry your husband and you had a fight. I'm sure everything will be fine soon! When he comes home from work, meet him at the door with a hot outfit on and open arms... he'll melt!

We are much better now. He came home and apologized, said he absolutely no way now how wanted a divorce or even a separation. HE actually did most of the talking and he said that maybe this would even make us stronger and bring us closer together. Then he talked about how maybe there was some truth to some of the things I said and that he really wants to be a better husband and father and that maybe its time for him to grow up and lose his "lonesome cowboy persona" ('cause girls let me tell you, that lonesome cowboy standing in the corner with his hat pulled down over his eyes a little might be sexy as anything, but oh my lord they are a b*tch and a half to live with).

I am really glad we are Ok now. I just turn into a complete mess when we fight.

Thank you everyone for your prayers! YTers are the best! I hope everyone else gets things worked out too! Ya'll are still in my prayers!

Aerrica, I am so happy that things are better. Sometimes these little outbursts help open our eyes. Y'all have a Merry Christmas.
