My wife has been diagnosed with "Bipolar disorder". What should I know? What should I be worried about?

I have a child who she needs to watch when they're not in school. Sometimes my wife seems so angry and depressed. She says she has never felt love. She gets very angry with her sister. Sometimes me? for the most shes okay with our child, but possibly impatient, and a little bossy, but probably no more than a lot of parents.

http://www.dbsalliance.org/info/bipolar.... is a great website that will help answer some of your questions. This is a tough disorder to have especially since bi-polar patients tend to take their meds and start to feel better and then stop and crash. The families of bi-polar people also need a great deal of support. I would suggest that if you can, you get someone to help your wife by watching your child if she's having a 'bad' period. This disorder can and does affect the children if there isn't another vigilant parent making sure the child understands and is loved and taken care of. You're taking a very important step in seeking information and I encourage you to get support for your wife and yourself. Good luck and God bless you and your family.
