[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don't care how mentally ill you are or what label you put on it or you being in a wheelchair. You verbally and physically abuse me and I'm gone.

[b]F support.  There are too many normal people out there to marry. I'm not about to raise a husband child with defects nor will I live a miserable life.[/b]

Well, I hope you made that clear when you got married so at least he can dump you without guilt when you get crazy.[/quote]

How does one just "get crazy"? I am not being snarky- I'm being serious. My MIL (DH's dad who he's been estranged from for 20 years despite the occasional rambling card that devolves into paranoia quickly) got married around 28, she and DHs dad are about the same age, onset for most things are early 20s, he very clearly has something diagnosable but hasn't been diagnosed. They divorced around early 40s, I'm always trying to understand how it wasn't obvious immediately or at the very least very early on in marriage (before kids) that he was ill. I get hanging in for kids and trying and how you can talk yourself into that- but how do you not know when someone is ill from the beginning? Isn't it odd to come on suddenly in 30s and 40s for most things?

Genuinely curious.[/quote]
