It's hard on family members when someone is suffering from a mental illness. They don't get it. It seems to them like you ought to be able to control your moods and behaviors. My husband was so unsupportive when I became severely depressed, he actually said he thought I should just kill myself. He said this when I was in a hospital after a suicide attempt (it is not so easy to kill oneself).

In retrospect, as I get ready to leave (moving out next Sunday), I should have left him years ago, but I didn't have the mental health and self-respect to do that.
