Hi, ElviaP.
I think that in a Bipolar unmedicated/unstabilized mind there is no rational thinking....it isn't until one is stabilized on the right meds that they are able to be "balanced" enough to see and accept that they have a disorder that requires the meds in order to survive. It's like alot of the more experienced and wiser folks here
often say.....someone who is Bipolar requires meds just as the diabetic requires insulin. Unfortunately, a diabetic is able to see that a little clearer than somebody who is Bipolar and in a manic state of mind.
Anyway.....realizing this may help you to understand a little bit better that until your husband finds the right med that makes him see things any differently he will continue to think this way. The thing is getting him to take the meds until he is somewhat stabilized and tweeking them until he is feeling good and then talking to him.....there is no rationalizing with a unmedicated Bipolar mind. You must find that window of opportunity and seize the moment.
Yes there's tons of support here and many who are walking in your two shoes. Knowing that you are not alone is the best thing in the world and a saving grace during those rough times!! Again welcome and hoping that things will get better for you real soon.

My bp hubby refusing any treatment, need help 
I wish he would start it NOW...but whatever I say is nonsense to him. How did you find out you husband has been weening himself off the meds.? My husband has done that several times! He goes into fits of anger & rage, too. EVERYTHING is MY fault, of course. Does your husband say the same things to you?
