Another Woman's Anger

I found this on "Living With the Dragon." I thought, "Why reword what has been so perfectly written as if it were my own words and feelings?" Thank you Kristall for so honestly posting your thoughts. I sat here and cried as I related to every word. EXPRESSING ANGER Let me start out by saying that I have many, MANY issues with anger. I have a hard time expressing it or even admitting that I'm angery most of the time, especialy when my BRAIN tells me I should be more understanding. I have anger, no RAGE at this disease and I find myself holding this anger in. I try to read too much about BP and rationalize my husbands behavior as "not him" but BP. In theory, this sounds good, but in life, it eats me up inside. I HATE when he is suicidal. The fear I have of finding him dead causes me to swallow the real feeling I have about it, RAGE! The fact that he would think of ending his life without even thinking of how I, or his family, or my son would feel. I hate the fact that he gets so selfish when he is very depressed, he closes his eyes to everyone, especialy me. I hate, when he gets so manic, he's psychotic. I hate being afraid of his anger and him not seeing how out of touch he is. I hate when he gives up fighting this disease. When he accepts the fact he will always be misserable and doesn't tell the docs or anyone how bad he feels. He takes it out on those who love him, by being mean and spitefull. It wears me down when he is like this. I resent him for it, but I find it hard to tell him. I HATE when he decides to stop takeing his medicine. There is no reason good enough to excuse this, no matter what they cost or how good he feels. It makes me feel like he is hurting me on purpose, and destroying all the progress he has made against his illness. I HATE when he blames me for his mood, I have no control over how he feels, none at all and have enough issues dealing with this as it is, let alone wen he TELLS he it's my fault. I do HATE this disease, I wish I could tear it from his mind and stomp it, stab it, and rip it to pieces so it would never hurt me or him again. I hate the fact that it's so hard to treat. There are so many medications that just don't work for him, and so many combinations of meds, I'm wondering if they will ever find the right ones. I also hate being the saint, the one who is supposed to be so strong and understanding that I can not hurt, or be emotionaly unavailable to him. I am not perfect, I never claimed to be and I shure don't want to start now, I have a hard enough time trying to pretend I am. I'm shure I'm not the only one who feels this way (at least I hope so). If any of you need to vent, email me and we'll have a Bipolar Hateing Party, ( the diesease, not the people!) lol. Good Luck in your hate of the Dragon, don't let it eat you alive!

  2. I read this post and cried, because, as many others have commented, you're living my life. My husband was diagnosed with BP1 & SchizoAffective Disorder about four years ago. In that time he has left me and our daughter twice, then moved back in because I accepted his assurances that everything would change. And it did, both times...for a while.
    Unlike the spouses of some other commenters, my husband is meds-compliant. He exercises, eats well, and tries to get enough sleep. He is a wonderful father and an educated, employed professional with a benefits plan that covers all the meds. We have every advantage in fighting this disease.
    And it's still not enough. His depressions often last seven months. The lithium keeps him from going off-the-scale manic, but it doesn't stop the irritability, rage, or crippling depressions. His psychiatrist says this is as good as it gets, but if that is true, I'm terrified of what happens if it goes downhill. The kind, affectionate, wonderful man I married turns into a coldly angry, silent, seething time bomb who goes weeks or months without saying more than the bare necessities to me, but "turns it on" for our daughter, his colleagues, and casual acquaintances. It's like he expends every bit of energy he has in maintaining some semblance of normal for the rest of the world, leaving nothing for me. I'm always to blame for his sense of isolation, his anger, his depression, because I don't understand his terrible pain. He's right - I don't understand it - but I bear the brunt of it all the time.

  5. My name is Alex Thiama, and I base in USA...My life is back!!! After 2 years of Broken

    marriage, my husband left me with two kids . I felt like my life was about to end i almost

    committed suicide, i was emotionally down for a very long time. Thanks to a spell caster

    called Dr Oyakhilo, which i met online. On one faithful day, as I was browsing through the

    internet,I came across allot of testimonies about this particular spell caster. Some people

    testified that he brought their Ex lover back, some testified that he restores womb,cure

    cancer,and other sickness, some testified that he can cast a spell to stop divorce and so on. i

    also come across one particular testimony,it was about a woman called Sonia,she testified

    about how he brought back her Ex lover in less than 2 days, and at the end of her testimony

    she dropped Dr Oyakhilo's e-mail address. After reading all these,I decided to give it a try.

    I contacted him via email and explained my problem to him. In just 48hours, my husband

    came back to me. We solved our issues, and we are even happier than before Dr Oyakhilo, is

    really a gifted man and i will not stop publishing him because he is a wonderful man... If

    you have a problem and you are looking for a real and genuine spell caster to solve all your

    problems for you. Try The powerful spell caster Dr Oyakhilo, he is the answer to your

  8. Hello Everyone,
    I am Mrs Theresa Wallcott Owen, from mexico. My life became devastated when my husband sent me packing, after 17 years that we have been together. I was lost and helpless after trying so many ways to make my husband take me back. One day at work, i was absent minded not knowing that my boss was calling me, so he sat and asked me what its was all about i told him and he smiled and said that it was not a problem. I never understand what he meant by it wasn't a problem getting my husband back, he said he used a spell to get his wife back when she left him for another man and now they are together till date and at first i was shocked hearing such thing from my boss. He gave me an email address of the spell caster who helped him get his wife back, i never believed this would work but i had no choice that to get in contact with the spell caster which i did, and he requested for my information and that of my husband along with our marriage pic. He also told me that i was going to pay the sum of $170 to enable him cast the spell and i sent him the money, but after three days, my mom called my that my husband came pleading that he wants me back, i never believed it because it was just like a dream and i had to rush down to my mothers place and to my greatest surprise, my husband was kneeling before me pleading for forgiveness that he wants me and the kid back home, then i gave Dr. Okirika a called regarding sudden change of my husband and he made it clear to me that my husband will love me till the end of the world, that he will never leave my sight. Now me and my husband is back together again and has started doing pleasant things he hasn't done before, he makes me happy and do what he is suppose to do as a man without nagging. Please if you need help of any kind, kindly contact Dr. Okirika for help and you can reach him via email: okirikaspiritualhindustemple@gmail.com
