Ann,
I too struggle with Bi-Polar in the family. My father is diagnosed Bipolar and my husband cycles pretty much like clockwork every 18-20 months. However, he refuses to get help for it. I can relate to your fears about coming home. When DH is in the depressed stage, I hate to leave him alone for any reason.
I can also relate to your fears for your child. BiPolar is just one of the labels that they keep throwing around to try to explain DS's behaviors.
I can't imagine trying to balance the needs of DH, my son and going to law school! You are amazing
None of your posts came across as whining. They are completely understandable posts for support and information. Keep posing and let us know how all of you are doing and if there is anything we can do to help!
The best thing about his board is the supportive nature!
