Hi:
>>>> So is it going to take me leaving him for things to change? When I say change, I know that would be for me only. I cannot expect anything from my husband. Would it be worth it for me, to not have to live with these frustrations day after day? <<<<--- In my opinion, .... it's so hard to say, but you need to make 'limit/boundary' on your husband's behaviour whether he's Bipolr of not. Because, you're ABSOLUTELY not his 'Mommy.'
Besides this fact, you need to take good care of yourself. In one of your previous posts, your husband is NOT a young man, at age 51(?), then in my guess, you, too not to be a young lady. If you, both are young, I'd say, ... up to the age 35 or close to that age, ... then it's a kind understandable. However, a grown-man at age 50 or over, I am NOT able to comprehend your husband's behaviour.
However, this decision is all up to you. If you're able to put up with him, then you need to search more constructive answer, ... 'How to live with a man with unacceptable behaviour. Or, as someone else's suggestion, probably you both need to get a good counselling for 'rebuilding' with your husband.
Good Luck to you, both.
