DH has been bipolar (diagonised) for 3 years now... on 4 types of meds.. not been manic for ages and ages. I am the only one who works, we have 2DSs. AIBU to want / expect him to work? Not fulltime, but anything to help. This is the 3rd xmas /year i've paid for everything on a part time nhs wage. I pay for it all, bills, food holidays etc... I dont want to put him under any pressure... but Im under a lot of pressure too and thought that at husband and wife we'd share lifes stress & Pressures...
So, does biopolar mean that he will never work again? And that he, my DSs and I are destined to a life of poverty and me saying no to my DSs and DH all the time cos I cant afford haircuts, treats or anything!
