How can getting treatment for my bipolar disorder benefit my loved ones?

When you get treatment for you bipolar disorder, your family and loved ones can relax when you're well, because they need not worry about where you are, what you're doing and thinking, and whether or not you're safe. Your spouse or partner will be free to enjoy your good humor rather than feel the need to protect you from yourself. A depressed spouse is no fun, and a manic one can put a family's financial future at risk and make interpersonal family relationships very difficult.

Often one partner is left to cope with all the responsibilities of running a home or caring for children or adult parents. Getting treatment allows you to be a fully functioning player on the family team. You'll probably be a far more welcome guest at family gatherings since you'll no longer be the one "ruining it for everybody."

If you have children, they'll appreciate a present, caring, and calm parent who isn't irritable or emotionally unavailable. Children who have parents with untreated bipolar disorder may often act out due to the parent's emotional instability. Children need adults they can trust, and parents with untreated bipolar disorder are often unable to be good parents, despite their love for their children.

Seeking treatment will make you a better, more caring, and more available parent.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
