Justjudy, my now xdbf I have suspicions was actually bipolar, he had the classic depression symptoms but he also went through a period of what i can only describe of a real 'high' episode of about two weeks before he came crashing down to the depression part. In the manic episode he couldnt sleep would be texting and calling me non stop but one of the most classic symptoms from what I have read was he became very sexual (totally different to how he had been through most of the relationship and the depressed part) it was very out of character and he admitted to me something shocking about his past in one of his previous episodes - basically he had no moral compass during this episode although looks back at horror at that time ,but unfortunately in this latest time before we split I suspect something had happened again. I have also read that bipolar people can become very confident I know my ex would talk about his work as though he managed the place single handly and what they would do without him.
It really is confusing for all of us on the outside, I am six months out of the relationship and still try to figure 'what actually happened'
Best wishes
