he came back last night. it was him trying to break in. i yelled out, babe? is that you? he said yes in a very tired tone. i opened. i can’t describe the feeling i had when i saw him standing there. he said he was there knocking our secret knock for a while. that explained the sounds i was hearing but was too scared to check it out. he was physically and emotionally drained. so was i. he held me and i just cried. i cried because i realized how weak i am without him. he cried too. he said he is scared to loose me. i realized how much he loves me. i didn’t feel it but i saw it. i don’t feel loved. i feel hated by everyone. and then i feel guilty that i feel so bad. everyone says that i am ungrateful but they don’t understand what it feels like to slowly loose feeling. it seems that to him last night was just a moment because tonight was just the same. the fighting. i left this time. i feel like he is not with me anymore- not in love anymore. i wonder what the point is of being with someone that has changed to the point where everything is a fight and he seems not to care. he is fed up. and so am i. im sick. i can’t help that. he should be understanding. he should show he cares. he doesn’t do that. he just stays silent. i hate it. i hate this situation. i feel trapped. how am i supposed to have relationships with people if my bipolar ways ruins them all? how does one live that way? i can’t stand the thought of being alone. i need someone there always. if not then i fear i will go insane. alone i can’t get better. i need help. i need someone who can fight it with me. i cant repair myself.
so tonight i left. i want him to feel alone. i want him to know the silence. the empty feeling. i want him to understand. im not sure if it will work. im doing more damage to myself because…i miss him so much.

@Xix,
I am bi polar as well. I know what it feels like to create havoc and hurt the ones around you. The illness we carry is genetic and there is no cure. I take numerous pills everyday and still suffer from mania and depression.
I am married, and my wife has been through a lot with my rampant mood swings (including, fighting, psych visits, and more). I know she loves me, but the illness its slowly beating her down. I often ask myself how much longer I have until she leaves.
I often think the burden we carry is to much to bear. It weighs heavy on everyone around us.
Xix I am sure you will find someone with a longer fuse, just keep looking.
remember this in all reality we are alone, just try and keep the pieces together.
keep looking…

I just wonder what you want from him. I see your mind changes quickly, but he’s right to be confused.
^ i just want him to be my husband and understand. he married me and promised to be there in sickness and in health but i do realize that maybe thats no longer realistic. people just dont care.
