It hurts, I love him so much, But Ive heard so Many people say, HE wont do it again,.. I Never thought he would Do it the first time, he suffers from bi polar manic depression, with parainoid dellusins, with a touch of pscycophrania... and Says he doesnt need his meds , What Do I Do? If he loved me he'd do anything possible to be better? am I turning my back on him? Ive tried for almost 2yrs... still the same HELP! thanks alot



RomanceClass.com Advice
You should tell him to stay on his meds or you're out the door.

But you won't do that because you love him so much. What you can do is to use his violent behavior as a lever to make him take his meds. Ask him if he is willing to do that for you-- to prevent a reoccurence of his physical abuse. Remind him that he is verbally abusive too.

Next time he says he doesn't need his med just point to your nose.

Good luck! George
