Our families are the closest we have to us. Most anyway. It's normal for them to strike out as the family members when we are down. It's hard to take none the less and can be very hurtful. My GS usually comes to me a little later and apologizes. My daughter not so much. Bi-polar people seem to think that the problem lies with other people, not themselves.
I love my family VERY much but I sure don't like them sometimes.

It is so easy to have a love hate relationship with your family.

True. Most of the time we are so close that I forget and then when she has a mood shift it is awful.

@Hatley ....It is sad that people don't have case managers or someone to make sure they are taking needed medications.

When they are manic they are not realistic and no one seems to be their friend.
