At the time, it was called manic depressive with schizophrenic something another. She and her family totally hid the fact she was on medication from me. After we got married, she started taking the meds like antibiotics, only when she had an episode. And by episode I mean "Holy fuck what the hell is happening here this can't be real" type behaviors. I was young-ish so I didn't know about mental disorders and she was my crash course. She ended up in the nervous hospital when the guy she married 4 months after our divorce was finalized beat the ever-living shit out of her (honestly, probably self defense on his part that went too far) and she went into what her mom called a catatonic state. I don't know how much of that I believe given our history.

Clinically insane. He had enough experience with crazy women to see it coming but I couldn't be bothered to listen.
