I can feel so great and energetic and I will get these great ideas and then I get so depressed I don't want to get out of bed and I want to die.

Q. I have been married for 12 years to a 43year old woman, who has been diagnosed with bipolar. She was diagnosed in 2003 .Most of the symptoms were present throughout our married life together. She refuses to take her medication or receive any medical treatment, since her diagnoses. The last three years have been the greatest trouble for me. To be honest with you looking back on our relationship I would say the last 10 years have been a challenge. We have three children, two boys and one girl, ages 12, 10 and 5 and it has been hardest on them. In January 2006 I made the decision to leave the relationship. It was the hardest thing I've ever done. My children mean the ... Read the rest of this question and answer... »

Q: I know there is something wrong with my husband, I just don't know what it is. He has a very addictive personality. Once he does something that he enjoys, he obsesses about it. He wants a brand new sports car, for example. He knows that we are having problems paying our bills as it is. But, yet he comes home from work, goes straight to the computer and surfs the web looking for a new car. We have gone to at least 15 different dealerships and all of them have told him that it is impossible to get a car at the current time. But, he still keeps trying, like he didn't even hear what the guy had to say. How many times does ... Read the rest of this question and answer... »
Q: I have been talking to a guy on-line for a few months and have met him a few times. Last night he brought me to his home. On the way to his home he told me that I had to promise not to tell anyone what I saw in his house. I had no idea what was coming. This man is fairly well to do, owns his own insurance co.

He had to german shepherds in a big fenced area behind his house. They are ... Read the rest of this question and answer... »

Q.My wife was just diagnosed with BPD (Borderline Personality Disorder) and it explains a lot about her behavior over the years. Don't get me wrong she has not been unfaithful but she has tried to leave me several times. I went through a lot with her and still love her if not more but the same as when I married her. My question is if she has tried to leave so many times and I here that it won't stop how do I deal with the pain over and over again?

Q. I'm really confused. Lately I think I might have OCD, but my mom just says I'm being paranoid. I don't know, though. I've got the steriotypical signs. Like everything has to be in perfect order, or I'll explode. My dog laid on my bed once, and got hair ALL over my clean white sheet.. and I couldn't stop picking and picking and picking at it until every single last peice of hair was off of the bed. It HAD to be perfect. I had it when I was little as well, I think.. One time I actually got into the dryer because the urges were so strong. I kept telling myself.. get into the dryer.. get into the dryer.. and when it did, ... Read the rest of this question and answer... »
