yes.
I have a friend (known her for 29 years) who is bipolar. She is not "mildly bipolar", either! She's got it bad...
She didn't manage to "cope" like your current wife at all. She's been medicated since her teens.
She will be on medication for the rest of her life. We can all immediately tell when she doesn't take her meds and gently remind her (not often, but it happens).
She is an extremely succesful business woman and has four lovely children.
She is a great person. Kind, compassionate, loving, supportive of others.
She and her husband have the same sorts of problems that all families face (loss of his job, stresses, et cetera) and she remains strong.
How's that for a success story????
