Help with partner with Bipolar

[Kez77]

My partner has been on a drug medication for 30 years and I meet him 3 years ago and the medication was stable and he seemed normal and functioned normally and all seemed fine.  At the start of last years his doctor lost his license and my partner had to go to the hospital to be get his daily medication prescription and they said they have a new and improved monthly injection and they only would give him that.  Then eveything turned bad he was sick always sleeping and had massive rages, highs and lows.  After giving it 3 months we knew wasn't working and his old doctor got license back and he went back to him and they put him back on the original daily tabs he use to have but months passed and still was not the same so doctor sent him to therapist and he put him on antidepressant which seem to help with the therapy as well but after the 6 weeks he saw him he went back to doctor and he put him on a bipolar medication and things got even worse.  He was nearly functioning just able to go to work and then when home spent the whole time in bed sometimes days on end sleeping and was forgetful and said was ok but I knew wasn't from his actions and no self daily care and outrages rages which I was scared for my life.  I tried to explain to him what was happening but was like he didn't remember what had done and said or didn't want to.  He said was over feeling tired all the time so stopped taking medication and spent the last 3 months mainly in bed or verbally abusing me.  I have tried to explain to him what is happening and my family have seen is and tried also but he thinks nothing is wrong.  I have recorded him and begged him to see another doctor for his current seems dodgy as and only prescribes what he makes money off in my opinion for was giving him benzodiazepines on top of the other meds and that didnt seem right at all.  I have thought about ringing the police when it gets out of hand and see if they can commit him to mental ward for assessment or something so can prove to him is a issue for he just blames me for everything and says I am making it all up even when work people have had issues with him and my family and still just thinks it is everyone else and he has no problem.  I know the man I meet and the man he really is and this person I have tried to help the last year I don't know any other the 4 personalities I see and I am scared and don't know what to do for worried if I leave he may do something to himself or me as he has said.

Hello Kez77

Welcome to the forum.

This is such a tragic turn of events for you & your partner, & agreed, scary too.

.You do need to keep yourself safe. If he was to become violent towards yourself or himself, how much would that help anything? 

In the event you feel your or your partner's life is at risk, that is an emergency situation, & calling the police 000, would be appropriate. If this is a way to get him into hospital where the meds could be reviewed, & hopefully, he can be stabilised to where he can understand what he needs to do, that would be ideal.

I wonder, if you could contact his treating doctor/s (GP, Psychiatrist) about what is happening, that could also help them to help him.
