Good, she deserves someone much better than you, someone who doesn't treat her as an undateable freak just because she has mental health issues, I hope she finds someone who loves her as she is and is willing to support her through her illness while not seeing her as broken or less worthy.

My Dad who married my mom that is Bipolar & Schizophrenic divorced few years prior as for a few of my Dad's friends who also married mentally ill wives. From what I had to experience the last 2 years that my Dad shielded me by sending me to my family every time she pulled shenanigans....It is difficult & frustrating coping with Mentally ill people especially finding help for them. Long story short I recently was able to get the police to take my mom to the hospital after the 3rd or 4th time thanks to complaints from other tenants, the leasing office wanting to evict her, etc. I know it is NOT a person's fault for being mentally ill...but I cannot be around them because I would just be upset & instantly get angry based on my experience.

Why the hell does that matter. I know someone who has both of those and she is a very good person. It probably took a lot to go out with anyone, and its assholes like you who make it so they feel like they cant. YDI

lol why is everyone posting their Pitt stories? All I see is I have so-and-so and blah blah blah Oh you think people give a **** to read your attention seeking stories

YDI for stigmatizing mental illness even further and for coming across as a colossal jerk. At least she had the nerve to come clean to you. She deserves better.

Or you could not be an arse and dump someone just for having a mental illness? No wonder you're single. Let me guess, you also won't date girls who are above a size 4 and aren't 5'10 with perfect complexion, otherwise they aren't good enough for you.

So you didn't give her a chance just because she is struggling with a couple disorders? It's not like she wants to be that way, and she still deserves to be loved.

thats harsh. she obviously told you trusting you. Shes probly on medication anyway to controll it

OK.. Obviously OP can't handle more than his own issues. I have PTSD and DID but mine is a gentler version where we actually work together, are aware of each other and the others do not come out unless it is safe for them to do so, except our Guardian. She will come out to protect us or children. I give them time with the body (2 besides the Guardian) and we all live quite happily with 2, yes, 2 partners: one husband of 20 years and one other male for 8 years, now. Stating she HAS these issues means she is getting help and just wants potential partners to know the issues are there but it definitely sounds like under some control. The way OP posts, it does stigmatize us, but I think the main problem is just that he has his own issues and is afraid to deal with something he's completely unfamiliar with. Education is key, OP. Always.

They're not all crazies! Don't worry OP, you'll find the right person
