    Do you get help, or take medications for your condition?

    Yes I take 6 different meds daily for my bipolar disorder, and anxiety. But I still feel like I'm never going to change and I don't want my jealousy to ruin our marriage. I'm in bad shape here.

    Jray, as a nurse, you know some meds. Are not effective for some, You should talk to your Dr. about this. Are you using talk therapy? Or just meds. May be time for a change of Drs.

    Definitely have to have some long term counseling along with the medication. It's tough handling the ups and downs.

    parttime is right - it may be time for some changes to the medications. Talk to your doctor and tell him/her what's going on.

    For now, along with keeping your doctor informed, make sure you don't act impulsively based on feelings by THINKING TWICE, before you act, or speak.

    Yes I go to therapy once a week, and my other doctors once a month.
