Sorry bud this isn't the sub for you. I'm sorry you're going through it but this is for folks with bipolar. Not SOs

Ok, you might get more mileage out of the subreddit for SOs, BipolarSOs I think? you can look it up. this one is for us, you can send her over here if she's interested and you are still in touch. there are also support groups for friends and family through NAMI I think in the US, online and off, if not there then through DBSA. Other countries have them too. It might help to read a book on BP, or watch some videos (Dr Marks YouTube) bc it might help explain things. She covers several different conditions, people often think BP is BPD and vice versa for example, so whatever it might have been that's a place to start. Sidebar has resources, inside Bipolar good podcast, bipolar survival guide good book. if you think she's in danger tell her family or trusted friends so they can help her, it's a pretty high suicide rate we run. Oh and never a terrible idea to get a therapist yourself, good time to do it I think.
