My husband has just threatened me

Volatile is all I've ever known. My Mother was a million times more abusive than my husband. His family is crazy, my family is crazy, I feel like all I can do is cope the best I can. Next time he drinks I am going to try to avoid him. It's hard because I enjoy his company and he is so much fun to be with then all of a sudden he just flips like a light switch.

I am glad that you are 'OK'. BP sucks. The mood swings are horrific if one isn't on meds. I know....

I hope you get some peace today. xoxo

((((Heart))))

I'm so sorry to hear about your situation. My hubby is bipolar too, as I am. He also sometimes goes off his medication. And if he drinks any hard alcohol (not beer) he can be a bastard, though never physicially because that is something I would leave him for in a minute, I don't put up with that BS and you shouldn't either.

If it were me I'd give him an ultimatum and stick with it. Get on your meds or get out of the house, then I would get a restraining order.

I can put up with a lot of shit, but when it comes to physical or mental abuse I have zero tolerance. If I were near you I would have you come over. And if your hubby were to try and come over, he would meet my good friend a 22. And I'm a good shot!:l

MyHeart,

I'm so glad you're ok, I just read this thread. I feel for you. It's hard loving someone with a condition
such as that. Please take care of yourself, ok?

MyHeart,

Just because volatile is all you know, or have known, doesn't mean you have to stay in an environment that is dangerous for you.

Do you have a nest egg of savings to use incase you have to leave? If not, please consider starting one. Even if all you can eek away is a few dollars here and there, one night it may be a Godsend to have enough for a taxi and a few nights in a hotel???? (or more)

Please take good care of yourself.:l:h
You are worth it.

keeta, you are right about the nest egg. I never did that and wish I had.

myheart I am thinking about you...

gabby,

From experience, I wish I had as well.
I also think it should be cash. Hidden and kept somewhere easily accessible if it is needed.(No paper trail to be found, no questions to answer)

IAD, You crack me up!!!!!

Well, I just got back from the store and ordered a new mattress for the guest bedroom and new sheets etc.

He emailed me while I was out that he is coming home to pack for a business trip, he will be gone till Friday which is probably the break I need from him right now.

MyHeart,

Gia has a good idea...especially since he is going away.
It couldn't hurt to get some money into place now if you can afford to.
He has a mental illness...this is not meant as a slight against him, it simply means if he is not taking his meds, he is going to be very unpredictable, and perhaps change from verbally abusive to physical, and dangerous.
It couldn't hurt to have a plan in place, "just incase".
If it never is needed all the better, but better to be prepared, at a moments notice, to be able to get yourself to a safe place, and have enough to take care of yourself.

Incase you hadn't guessed, I have experienced a very abusive relationship and was in it
for a couple years.
I just care. I sure hope I am not coming across as pushy or nosey.:l:h

Take care of yourself. Get a plan in place.

I wish you all the best MyHeart, and pray none of this ever needs to be used.:l

Gyco,

Can you tell me anything about this "training too much" regarding mental illness? It sure does seem to pump up the mania : (
