My SO...he is my boyfriend, not my husband...we do not live together. It has only been a few months actually. Here is my dillema. I know he needs some help, he now has an appt for Mon. He is so over-tired, can hardly sleep at night, he thinks it's the Depakote...
How do I (in my limited role) express to him that I can see he needs to get some help without "pushing" him? I know he loves me very much as I do him, but I am afraid, at times, that our relationship is perhaps an added stress in his life that he does not need. I would never walk away from this man. I want to spend my life with him...but am I actually hurting more than helping by being another thing for him to think about? Any of you with BP could help me here...are you happy you have your SO's in your life or do you wish that it was only you that you had to deal with? I just feel like I am a burden when I ask to spend time together at times...that is the last thing I want to be to him.
