Suggest Treatment For Bipolar Disorder

Dear Doc.
I think my husband is a Bipolar patient. He has weird behavioural habits - threatens and bullies me. He is a personality copy cat - never takes the blame for anything but blames me for everything. Sexual drive high - his favourite is to woo women. Has a very high self-esteem. Always on a high mood and grins constantly as if he is a Super Star. Gets boisterous and is a public nuisance.

I can understand your problems you have been facing. But I would like to know when all these changes you noticed in your husband and since how long. Is the intensity of all these increasing gradually. The symptoms as you have described seems to be of mania but if this has been his consistent pattern of behaviours for many years then it can be personality disorder. Both of which can be handled by psychiatrist.
