Are there any support groups online for people with Bipolar disorder and/or signifigant others?
Im trying to find 2 things: A support group that’s online for someone who is diagnosed as being bipolar and a support group online for a fiance/girlfriend/boyfriend to someone with bipolar. Any suggestions? Thank you!

MD Junction has a nice support group with a bipolar sub group. You may want to check them out.
You can also search in Yahoo groups under Health and Wellness. You click on support first, then Health and Wellness, and then it goes to sub categories. The ones that listed first are the ones that have the most activity, and are the highest rated. Usually the first couple listed are among the top 2 per cent
of all Yahoo groups.
I am sure they have groups for spouses/partners of bipolar people. there are tons of groups in the health section. I moderate several, but not for bipolar. Mine are for sleep disorders, and we do have some bipolar people in the groups, though, as people with bipolar do have a lot of sleep issues. My father was bipolar, but did not have a computer when I was dealing with him, though. I have lived with a bipolar all my life, up until last year, and we went through it.
So, it is a good thing to have as much good support as you can get.
Good luck.
The link I posted has discussion forums on it, although I am not too familiar with that particular one.
try dailystrength.org. They have support groups for both the beeper and SOs
