If you go down ten forums you will find the Supporting family members who care for those with a mental illness!!! I may have gotten the name a bit wrong but It is number 10 down the lists of forums. Good luck and I hope this helps.

He was diagnosed with bipolar a couple of years back. I’ve had my own mental health issues with depression but have been managing quite well for the last year with the help of my gp and a therapist (after my husband pushed me to get help). <BR /> I love him but there are times when he makes it so difficult for me too. We have been together for 8 years and have a 3 yr old. <BR /> It’s a constant rollercoaster and can be so exhausting. I guess what I’m looking for is help/ advice on managing the bipolar as well as somewhere I can vent once in awhile:) I don’t talk about him or what he’s like with anyone and it’s getting to the point where I feel frustrated all the time cause I’m just holding it all in. <BR /> </P> Thu, 18 Mar 2021 01:14:58 GMT https://forums.beyondblue.org.au/t5/welcome-and-orientation/hi-bb-newbie/m-p/518224#M28742 Cloud79 2021-03-18T01:14:58Z https://forums.beyondblue.org.au/t5/welcome-and-orientation/hi-bb-newbie/m-p/518225#M28743 Hi and well done for posting...
