    My husband is bipolar
    We have been married for 4 and 1/2 years. He diagnosed with bi-polar 6 months after our wedding. Now we have 3 and half year old son. He is a psychiatrist. He convinced me I am crazy and have mood problem. Now I am so convinced I want to see psychiatrist. I do not know what I need to do.

    Me either honestly, other than to tell you to trust your instints more than you trust his. Obviously he is driving you crazy, and maybe a referral from your doctor to get some counseling is what would help you the most. At least that's a start.

    At least you can get a second opinion for his diagnosis.

    I wonder if he diagnosed himself and is writing his own prescriptions. The long-term treatment of bi-polar disorder (knowledge from experience) is an effective medication regimen; this regimen is often difficult to balance. You are responsible for yourself and a three-year-old. Please seek assistance from someone who can make you feel safe while you sort out these issues. Whether you need psychiatric help is unclear; however, do not seek treatment from your husband.
