To the OP:
I hope you get the knowledge and the help you need. I live with my boyfriend who has Bipolar 2, yes it can be trying and frustrating, but I realize that it is a disease and not his fault. Just remember even when the times seem to be at their darkest that there are people in your life that love you and that they are there for you if you let them in. Never let the disease make you think you are worthless, or that everything is your fault. And remember to take all medications prescribed properly, even if you feel fine, they are there to help you and you could end up in worse condition from improper use. And above all remember you are not alone.
P.S. If you happen to live in a jurisdiction where medicinal marijuana is legal it is worth checking out to deal with the occasional side effects of certain drugs, like nausea. Also does wonders to mellow you out if you find your self in a manic phase.
