bipolar wife

I am dealing with a bipolar wife who is in a manic phase. She is taking Abilify right now and it seems to be helping.

It has been about a week or so now. She was really sick around thanksgiving.

It is hard. She is negative and does not want to carry on any conversations more than a couple of words. She is very stressed and it is impossible to discuss important things.

Can anyone relate?
