My bi-poal friens


Question Posted Thursday May 3 2007, 1:46 pm

I had a friend, last year. We were pretty close. Now it's like this year we've done a lot of fighting. He'll hit me with a horse whip or try to push me out a window, and I'll respond the same way. I've tried ignoring him, though I want us to be friends agein, I;ve tried talking to him, not reacting, being nice, nothing works, could you help me? I really want my friend back. But then sometime he can be so sweet, he's bi-polar and his medication makes him depressed so he dosn't take it, I don't know what I did to him, but I want things to be like they used to be. We go to a boarding school, so I can't get away from him, everywhere I go (But the girls dorm) it seems like he's always there. So I want to know, how can I refill our gap?

Much love
Willow.

Your friend needs to take his meds before he kills someone. You need to stay away from him before he kills you.

You are not going to get your friend back unless he gets medical help and until he does, you need to back off.

You don't say how old you are, but judging from your post, I'd say you are very immature. You should not be reacting violently, unless you have a problem, too.

This situation has physical abuse written all over it. You both need individual counseling.

oh wow hun i knw how that feels 2 members of my family have MDS.... its not easy to deal with i knw... but you have to b patient.... they usually are convinced they are fine but aren't so you have to be very patient and rational when it comes to dealing with the.... i am surprised that you react in the same way as he duz (when he tries to push you out the window you do the same?!?!) thats not a good sign... he has an excuse what's yours.....

what i am saying is in order to get him back you'll have to start by changing your impulses..... and then you start talking to him... its not healthy if he is not taking his meds you should say something and mention that the lithium dosage isn't right because he shouldnt be getting this depressed.... he need to be balanced and you only need a certain amount of it. too much or too little with make him go crazy... do this and see if he gets back to normal..... i am sure you guys will be frnds in no time!

good luck and stay strong!
