fuzzy You sure its not bad PMT? Mrs DjP used to take it really bad for up to a week every month, so bad i fact that me and the boy used to avoid her like the plague for that period (pun intended). First thing is to understand that this is case. You need to speak to her about it (not during the mental phase) and be open, describe how she comes across and how she makes you feel during this period. There are various herbal supplements that can help suppress the symptoms, especially the more manic ones. She could also be starting the menopause (Mrs Djp went thru hers early to mid 40s), which is hell on earth. HRT can help with this in some cases. Unfortunately there's no rhyme or reason to be had during the manic episodes, where a pleasant 'Hi darling, would you like a cuppa?' can be thrown back at you like you were caught red handed shagging her younger and more attractive sister up the arse. It really is a no win situation, and patience and understanding of the condition is the only way through it.
