42 yo male, in a bipolar dependent relationship

Post Reply New Topic

So I am diagnosed autistic and adhd. I have been married for nearly 11 years. Knew her for nearly 20 years total.

I don't know what to say about this or what to do with this post beyond just stating it.

I am in a bipolar codependent relationship with my wife. She is very controlling. Its so bad that the state is involved and is evaluating her for it. I won't go into it, but they arrested both of us a month ago.

Its kindof like being in a movie you don't want to be in. I love her and will not leave, and everyone else sees it as abuse.

I'm not sure what you may be looking for in a response? That sounds like a tough situation for everyone involved.

Hopefully the state will decide to get her psychological help like meds &/or counseling. Depending on the cause of her behavior there may be a good chance that the right med combo can majorly her. I was controlling in my first two relationships & figuring out why & addressing the causes majorly helps me not be very controlling in my current relationship.

I honestly and really don't know what to say to this, its well honestly seems like she need help and you need respite.

That sounds very difficult but what does it mean to be in a codependent relationship with your wife? What does it mean to you?
