I have been with my husband for a total of 10 years. We will have our 5 year wedding anniversary this friday and... he doesn't seem to care. He has not mentioned anything about it to me really.This is not like him. In fact, the past few months he hardly ever talks to me at all. I do not think that he is cheating but I feel like he has definitly lost interest. I don't blame him though. I am bipolar and no one else in my family has really been as supportive as I need them to be, so why would he be? I am so lonely and feel like I have no control over the situation. When I try to have any conversation with him, he makes it seem like I am just nagging him. I don't know what to do anymore. I do not want a divorce but why be with someone who is not there for me? One of the most hurtful things he did recently was deny me his company when I was to the point of checking myself into a mental hospital. I begged him to take a day off of work and he kept using the excuse that we needed the money and that he didnt want to waste his paid vacation sitting at home. I am still hurt and unsure what to do. Any suggestions from the men out there?

well your condition ,puts a strain on the relationship,//he probably dont no how to talk to you as mabye you have gone on a rant at some stage with your illness,,an he thinks best to say nothing.//people do that my wife loves the sh*t of me ,but if your on a downer they go quiet ,not nowing how you will react if they speak.//it actually makes you worse because your in a house of silence//he didnt want to take you to the mental hospital//he just wants you home an well//they are for emergencies an are not cool places to be in fact they make me worse.//so dont put yourself an your husband in that situation ulless you are suicidal believe me.//you probably scared him by mentioning it//he is hitting back because he is scared not unsuportive

Thanks Manic666,
That makes a lot of sense. He really has gotten quiet and trust me, I have gone on a few rampages. I have been doing that for ten years but this whole depression, poor me crap is new to him. It does make it worse though, that's for sure. I find myself so lonely at times that I crave attention but my morals and self esteem wouln't allow me to have an affair.
You are right, who would want to trigger another episode by saying the wrong thing?! This was very helpful.I appreciate your advice and thanks for sharing your experience.
