Re: My life partner has Bipolar ii
will also get upset if someone upsets me but is usually not a grudge holder although he remembers in detail things that are said -- yes same here @Former-Member
The crying is one of my concerns , along with a couple of other things.-- Mr shaz does not cry anymore @Former-Member, @Determined
Knowing when to hold back vs when to push is ongoing.-- sometimes this is hard at time and to try and get a balance
Just keep doing what I can to reduce stress, gently encourage, be prepared to do things that increase his well-being, etc, that is all we can do @Former-Member

Re: My life partner has Bipolar ii
@Former-Member definatly more inclined to have visitors at our new location. It used to stress her out before as we were really cramped and cluttered. (I did not think so at the time but by comparison to now we were)
Re trying to fix things. I am definatly a work I progress there. Biggest problem is sometimes I pull back a little too far out of self preservation and this is then percieved as rejection or not caring.
Where I have come a long way is that I dont take it as l personally when I try and fix something and it does not work out how I would like. This used to really get me down feeling like I was doing something wrong but I can see past that now.

Re: My life partner has Bipolar ii
LoL @Former-Member
Sometimes I think I am just hard work generally... at least that's what darlings tells me. For me I like to believe that as long as I can examine my heart and motives for doing or saying things then I have done the best I can with the best intentions.
