yes I have. sorry I didn't see this part earlier. We have had our ups and down and she has left once before this is the first time she's ever said she wanted a divorce. I tend to think a lot of it is her bi polar disorder but I'm not sure really. We've been married 31/2 years the first time she left we hadn't even been married a year yet and she was gone just a couple of weeks. She's talked about leaving a few times in between but we've always worked it out. Our relationship has been quite the rollercoaster.

I have talked to her about getting medication again for her disorder and she even acknowledges that she needs it but she won't do it. I have read a lot of articles on BPD and a lot of marriages have this problem when one spouse has it.
