How do i get my spouse to realize he is bipolar and accept treatment?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Denial in loved one: Is very difficult. Talk to him about your feelings, the effect his behavior has on you and what his fears are about treatment. Find other relatives or friends to join you in giving loving, empathic feedback to him. You may need to find a mental health professional for support and suggestions for yourself. Take good care of yourself no mater what he does.
