Hi
why can't she write a letter to him explaining how hard it is doing normal chores for a bipolar? Intuitively I don't think you need couples therapy and if it ain't broke why fix it? I am afraid it might complicate your situation.
If i were married, I would be protective of my husband too. If he thinks he needs help in dealing with living with someone who is bipolar then he should find his own therapist but it doesn't sound as if he has expressed that need.
Gee he doesn't he have a clue what depression is lol....You too sound like a perfect match. As you know I am very wary of most therapists.
