I could use a little advice. My husband has not been diagnosed yet, but doing my reasearch I believe he has Bipolar disorder. My challege has been getting him to a doctor. He walked out on my and my 2 children just over a month ago. At times he appears normal. At other times he appears paranoid and agitated. He is always negative. He is blaming me and our marriage and just doesn't want the responsibility any more.
He has agreed to "marriage counceling", and according to him it is to do me a favour. The earliest I can get us an appointment at the local clinic is March 2007 (six months away), or the alternative is to speak to a crisis councellor in Emergency at the Hospital. To my astonishment he has agreed to go to emergency...as soon as possible (when I can arrange babysitting).
My question is....Is this an admittance that he is realizing he needs some help, or is he just trying to do me a favour.
