I was wrong about the 80%

Anyway here is the article they took the stat off of:

NAMI | Beating the Marriage Odds
http://www.psychologytoday.com/artic...polar-disorder (original article)

http://www.bipolar-lives.com/bipolar-and-divorce.html

^^^^^ This states that the statistic is not credible and there is no real research backing up that number. It was originally posted in Psychology Today in 2003, which is a commercial magazine and website.

I feel terrible thinking that other people are going to be hurt by the misinformation.

Whatever. I've been with the dude for 7+ years, and while he's seen the ugliness... Held me, put his foot down, spoke up & called me on my B.S., he has NEVER coddled me. No one has ever taken care of me. And while he's said "you need to call your doctor" he's never loaded me up in the car & whisked me away to the doc. Don't think that would do a thing in the way of trust. Nope.
