sometimes it takes for them to get in a real 'state'.. before they can accept any help or see where your coming from.


my exbph spent days walking and talking.. smoking ... drinking caffeine... and NO FOOD!
eventually he spent four hours walking from where he was staying to get to our house ... when i opened that door i nearly died when i saw him... he looked like he had been in a car accident or something... i fed him .. while he cried and asked me to make him a drs appt for the next day.. (that was so wierd because he made his own appts.. specially when he was awol from our house... ) he wasnt capable of doing much of anything... his brain wouldnt shut down .. very scary to watch when i didnt know what was actually happening with him.. this was his first manic episode that I actually knew enough about to realise that it was mania.. (he had only been diagnosed with major depression before this )

I wish i knew then what i know now... not that i think the outcome would have been any different .. but understanding what was wrong and how to deal with it would have probably made my life easier
