when non-bpds don't understand

how do you deal with someone who won't take the time to understand your disorder? you try to tell them that you need them, but they just keep tearing you down.

You may want to calmly talk to them about your disorder and its symptoms.

I imagine it would depend on how much they love you. I am here to understand my wifes behavior (separated). I love her completely. I don't understand at all, but I am at least taking the time to try.
I see things for what they are. But I know if I am to get through this separation and reunite I had better know what I am up against.
Sara (my wife) printed out some info and mailed it to me. I took about 3 days before I even took it out of the envelope. When I did, I did the tick and flick as to what I thought she suffered. She did also and it would seem she ticked more than me.
I have always been around people who were like this. My first wife was. But I truely love her and miss my 2 kids/.
I know I could move on if I wanted too but don't cause I still love her so much.

my dad that adopted my sister and I just does'nt understand how I am, even after I was diagnosed he still thinks that I am making it up and that I should be able to control how I think and feel, he gets mad that sometimes I just want to stay home and not go with them to birthday parties and stuff or why I just don't feel like doing things.
