Question: OK, I could really use some help but to help me you have to read something thats a bit long!?
My best friend has been dating this guy for 2 years now and he is bipolar!. I don't have any issues with him being bipolar except he doesn't try to control it or treat it at all!. He is not on any medications that make it easier for him to function nor is he in therapy!.
Their relationship has been rocky to say the least things are good for about a week at a time and then the rest of the time they are absolutely terrible! He has never been physically abusive to her but most definitely has been verbally!. But somehow she still stays!. Last night she called me at 12 am and said that he called her up screaming at her and then started to throw up!. She said she guessed he puked 3 or 4 times and then passed out so she panics and calls his Mom who he lives with and his Mom calls 911!. When the ambulance gets there he freaks out, jumps in his car and starts driving down a 2 lane at 95 an hour!. He calls her while driving down the road asking her how she could do this to him now he is going to haveWww@Answer-Health@Com


Answers:
Your friend most likely has strong feelings for this guy!.
She should talk to him and tell him to get the help he needs!.
I feel badly for both of them because it is not her fault what he is doing!. On the other hand he can't help what he is doing because he is bipolar!.
Does he live with his parents or by himself!?!?!? It sounds like his parents are in the same area!. It seems like he really needs to talk to a professional to get himself on medication!. That might help him to control whatever moods are associated with the disease!.
It is not your friends fault that he is doing these things!.
Talk to her and tell her that she should talk to him and his parents!.
She probably feels bad for him and does not want to leave him!. She really needs to make sure that he gets help!.
I guess she told him but he won't listen!.
I know that it was not a good thing that he was driving down the lane so fast!.
But on the other hand this could be a wake up call for him to get the help that he needs!.
He probably does not realize what he is doing!.

I hope that everything works out!. These things take time

If he hasn`t sorted himself out or got help to sort himself out after 2 years,I really think she`s best of out of the relationship(if you can call it that)Does she really want to spend the rest of her life like this!?Maybe give him one last chance,but then that`s it!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Tell him to straighten out his life, for himself and for his girlfriend!. I would tell your friend to threaten to end it if he doesnt start taking a serious approach to his mental health!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
