My parents have been married for years but have always had problems together. They just were completley different people I guess and got married very young. For the most part though they always seemed very happy and content with their lives.
I think that my dad might have some serious mental health problems. I haven't talked to him about it yet but even if I do he probably won't listen to me.I think he may be Bipolar. The reason is because he has a lot of the symptoms and it ran in his mother's side of the family.I know some of his aunts and uncles had it as well. And since it is a genetic thing I think he needs to get some help.He used to be a very funny guy, always made me laugh and smile. Now,I just want him to move it and leave everyone alone sometimes.He acts depressed one minute and can become the happiest person alive the next. Not to mention the fact that he was always great at this job and always worked hard(at least that is what I thought) well his boss didn't give him a very good review at work.He doesn't do much either.(I mean I know some guys are like this but this is quite different) he watchs tv,rents a movie everyday,walks his dog, and thats really about it besides work I'd say.He's lucky my mom hasn't left him already.
What can I do about helping him out and finding someone to possibly dignose him? It's quite obvious that he has some major problems,it's completley abnormal and he has so many symptoms and is only 43 years old.
