[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Look for meet up groups as well. All on zoom nowadays [/quote]

Agree. I think AANE and Grace Myhill's groups are useful, but really only when you're just dealing with ASD. We are dealing with ASD and a personality disorder, that was by far causing the most damage. I'm connected with two Facebook groups now that have helped so much. Where does the most damaging behavior comes from-- is it the ASD or the comorbidity? That will tell you where to start.

The support groups really solidified how fixed the pathology is, and my responsibility in breaking this cycle for my kids. They've had ten years of an abusive marriage, I'm determined the next eight will be stable (or as near as I can make it).

Stable via a divorce or radical acceptance /distancing or what?

I need a fB or Meet up group for dealing w a bipolar II person. [/quote]

Stable via separation and more than likely divorce (I tried radical acceptance/distancing, I just don't think that works with certain personality disorders. I'm the PP who's 20 years in).

I'm choosing to move slowly to give him time to adjust to being separated first. Anything else would put him in panic mode, and that makes the difference between hellish or just passive aggressive coparenting.

Mine's not bipolar, but there's definitely FB groups out there. Search for "Bipolar support group" but also "Support Group for Non-Bipolar individuals relating to someone with Bipolar" or similar. If yours is abusive, I highly recommend "The Body Keeps the Score" and from "Trauma to Dharma" (meh title, but actually very science-based).[/quote]
