ever date a bipolar girl?
 

I'm completely weirded out. Things used to be great, but now I feel like she's shitting on our relationship completely.

what does it mean, bipolar?

You sure she's bipolar?

She might have uncertainties regarding the relationship. Maybe she didn't like the was you spit on the sidewalk or some crap.

If she's truly bipolar, good luck.

bipolar is noting to joke about :321GFY

The diagnosis is bipolar. Anyone have any tips? I'm feeling pretty overwhelmed.

Bipolar is someone that has major mood swings. One day they feel fine and are in a good mood and everything is great and the next day they are suicidal. I never dated a girl like this, but I used to work with one. She would have months where things were good, then she would stop taking her meds and not show up to work for a week. When she would get back to work she would be so depressed it would depress you just to talk to her.

I'm not joking! I'm really worried about my relationship.

Best I can say is GOOD luck.. One of my ex's was diagnosed Bipolar and it was rough as hell... As you also noticed I said EX... I tried but we just could not get it to work and she still has not been able to with anyone else either is my understanding...

With all of the seriousness that I can muster after 30 plus years of exerience run as fast as you can and find another lady. If you cannot do that be sure she is on her meds.

be sure she is on her meds.

Yea b sure she's on her meds thats the only thing that'll help & take her to her therapist.... without making it seem like U think there's sumthin wrong with her... play it off just get her there... & let da doc know whats going on... DON'T wait too long

That is a though situation to have...Be patient man.....

Is she getting treatment? With the right counseling to manage the problem and meds to help control it, it can be easier for her and those around her to deal with it.

I'm erraticly moody myself ... i wonder if I'm Bipolar?

In that case she needs a medical assistance!
That doesn't go - she is bipolar and that's over. Live with her as you can!

If you can live with her, you should certanly do that...

Things will not get any better I won't lie to you. They may seem better for only alittle while but she cannot be stopped. Your better off leaving her now.

i thought my ex was bipolar, but now i am positive it is this.

impossible to deal with.

With bipolar your moods last much longer, with borderline personality disorder, you can be angry one day and happy the next, then angry, a lot more swings in shorter periods.

Don't worry, tomorrow could be the best day you have with her.

All kidding aside, I lived with someone for a few years who was the same way. She was so bad, I wouldn't doubt for a second that it rub off on me.

She might be shitting on you right now, but tomorrow she'll worship the ground you walk on. That's just how it is.

Is she medicated? That always seemed to be when my ex was being her best.

Probably you're right. Till it's gone too far.

homestly dude it depends on how much you love her I was married to a woman who had bipolar she could make sybill as whats wrong with that bitch that out there and I didn't know it till after I married her that it ran in the family her mom would sit on the couch and talk to "ghosts" and one time I sat on one dude thats a delicate road to travel is it worth it??

P.S. i'd post her name but I know a few people will seek her out

Yes. In it now. She is bi-polar type 1. She has slit her wrists, cheated, been violent, etc. And yes, the sex is unbelievable! We were in an exclusive relationship and she lived with me until 2 weeks ago when I found out she cheated back in december. I put her out not because of the ACT of cheating but because of who it was with (a "friend" of mine who basically dape-raped her), her lies to cover it up, and because of her PROJECTING her guilt onto me. She was constatly testing me and trying to make ME the bad guy to rationalize her unfailfull behaviour. She has now been down-graded to a fuck buddy I see once a week as long a she remains in THERAPY! She is in an intensive out-patient program. She also may be borderline.

Few points I will offer:

1. Separate her "medical" issues from her personality issues and learn to act accordingly. If she is simply being a brat, bust her on it and escalate her into the sack and sex her like there's no tomorrow. That will solve that.

If she is acting out due to either a manic or depressed cycle, you have to address it differently. This is what I'm learning to do now.

2. Man up and lead her emotionally. This is what she needs more than anything. Don't take anything she says seriously, take what she DOES and REACTS to instead.

3. Get yourself back in the game and meet other women. You don't have to fuck them but you need to be on top of your game in case it doesn't work out. You don't want to be sitting at home alone wacking off to porn after a break up with a bi-polar chick because as I wrote above, the sex is always GREAT with these types of chicks. Hope this helps man! I feel ya pain! :thumbsup

unless your just in it for the time being, don't sweat it too much. if its too much to deal with let it go. if you want to be with her long term and think about kids and stuff, i wouldn't because then your kids could be bi-polar too.

maybe shes using drugs ?

maybe...

keep in mind hormones/pms will also throw her off even if she is on meds.

Question is, do you love her enough to see above her bad mood swings to stay with her. And do you realize that whatever she says and does, really is not about you.

Some people can't separate from taking it personally and that is what will kill the relationship- be it friend, boyfriend, parent, family, etc.

so again, the question is, do you love her enough to stay with her. That is one hell of a strong love if the answer is yes and I commend you for it.

If not, then that is fine too. Just be honest with yourself.

I'm thoroughly convinced all women are bipolar...it's just a matter of HOW bipolar they are

Been there, done that. RUUUUN!

:1orglaugh :1orglaugh :1orglaugh

I know it's not funny, medication might help.

my sister is bipolar as long as they take their meds they are fine but getting them to take their meds is the problem.

I dated a woman who was bi-polar and manic depressive... let me just say, yes it is very difficult. They appear to be selfish and needy sometimes and other times, want to be all about the other person. I think sometimes meds don't help. Yes, both are more likely to occur for a lot of women at some point in their lives. I know, I have had battles of depression in my life, and it's not fun. I guess it depends how much will power they have to notice it's a problem and try to conduct themselves differently in situations. I wouldn't run either if you're in love with her, but at the same time, don't think you have to stay b/c you think she can't handle it. Think it over really well. Sit down and talk to her. Communication can clear a lot of the air. Because you don't know how she is really feeling, you're just taking it personal.

Here's some background:

Been there and done that
anyone remember Abby Page?

She tore my heart out- but looking back I should have seen the warning signs
Bro- I feel for you, she almost killed me

I was diagnosed BPD for a long time - its the hardest mental illness by far to deal with.

After a few years though it became obvious I am BiPolar with BPD.

I spend more time down than up - and thats pretty normal with a dual diagnoses.

You will have a hard time, but you will have the most dedicated lover. Just dont piss her off or you will have your bitterest enemy.

We dont have freinds - we love or we hate, nothing in between.....

Take a step back..let it the relationship take it's natural course

Dude if she's bi-polar Communication won't accomplish shit... U can have a totally rashional conversation with a person thats bipolar and they may agree that theres a problem & also say they'l do sumthin bout it, but the next day its like that conversation never took place...

and she'd go back to doing / acting as she was

with out meds Communications are usless when it comes to bipolar

met one this weekend. dont like her.

I have to sumwhat disagree not all bipolar peeps are the same and they show diferrent simptums... sum are not loyal / dedicated at all and with others loyalty / dedication is temporary i.e. one day yes one day no and then there are those who yes are completely loyal and dedicated...

It varies on the individual bp person

bingo.. i dated this girl for four years.. and was having basically teh worst breakup you can imagine when i came across the BPD

bloody scary, but once you know what you're dealing with, and you love the girl, you can figure shit out by talking to doctors and stuff.

good luck dude!
