Thanks Labug,

If you agree with the fact that feeling "out of control" is driving some of the manic behavior, then it also important to understand that doing things that make you feel "in control" will make you feel better. In choosing a GAL, find something where you can measure progress. That could be getting in shape, losing weight, learning a new instrument, something where you can measure how you're doing. When you see progress, it will help you feel in control of your situation, and that will counterbalance the "out of control" you feel from your relationship. Try it, but give it time to work!
