I wanted to think about this for a couple of days, to make sure i gave you some good advice.
If you dont have access to meds, then you need to be very careful of what can set you off. There are triggers that we all have that can send us out of control. In my case it would be the emotional distress of fights and conflicts and her ignoring me that would trigger manias.
In effect, when i was with her i needed certain things that she either wouldnt or couldnt provide. Either way a mania would start up and i would go looking for sex. When i got away from her 6 months ago, i have had just two manias, and both resulted from fights with her. I realized that i had to stay away from her, that way i had control and was ok.
But this may mean you have to take hard steps and give up things you love in order to save the rest. I had to get out of my marriage to feel better. You may have to make an equaly hard choices. I think you can live with BP and be unmedicated, but it is very very very hard.
Good luck
Bill
