Perhaps if you told us what mental illness your fiance suffers from, I
might be able to point you to a support group where you can talk to
professionals and fellow sufferers who can offer some information and
coping advice. Would this solution be satisfactory as an answer?

grip of this. I'm 24 years old been emotionally abused severly and
sometimes physically. My son had to witness alot the horrible acts or
harsh words my x-husband would say. ever since the seperation and now
three years later a final divorce i feel to overwhelmed that i would
rather stay in bed or use to take my mind away. my x-husband currently
has my children and ive been with this new guy for a while and I love
him so much but i hate who ive become. i feel weak, ugly, vulnerable,
gullible, manipulation to tantrums like a child. i know this wrong but
i do it why? a year ago a psychiatrists diagnosed me with bipolar and
borderline personality disorder even maybe narrissism. I like
attention but not too much and i like too be friendly and helpful but
subqoeunsely to what others see and my fiance is flirtation but
honestly i really hate sex now. its hard for me to be sexual with my
fiance and hurts me to know hes hurting and i just sometimes cant
bring myself to having sex. It really sucks. please i need help!!!!!!!
we are good for eachother but than again we argue alot because he is
too stubborn to learn my conditions. i feel as if im gonna have a big
nervous breakdown or whatever. please help

It would help to know what kind of mental illness. Is he bipolar,
schizophrenic, borderline, etc.?
