My husband has an Issue with trusting people it comes and goes,?

He has been diagnosed Bipolar and takes meds. He use to be a heavy pot head but now just chills at the house takes care of the 2 toddies we have while I work. He pretty much is the Dad homemaker.

What can one do to improve his trust towards other people?

Has anyone ever had a Bipolar family member with a similar issue?

He is afraid or better said parannoid I will leave him for someone else and to be truthful I am getting a bit tired of it, I have said he should just leave me already, but obviously I was upset at the moment.

Someone sincere help.

    Attending counseling TOGETHER may help.

    It sounds like something has happened in his past that has made it hard for him to trust people. On the other hand, you can't have it both ways. Either you will learn to deal with it or you will leave. You can't make someone change. It sounds like the problem isn't to bad or you wouldn't trust him to watch the kids while you are at work. Make a sound decision and stop going back and forth. This will only make the problem worse.
