Question:
My wife was diagnosed as bipolar (or borderline) 2 years ago -- she only takes Effexor.  She told me bipolar 2 years ago and now she tells me she is borderline.  Recently, she told me that she wanted a divorce.  We have been married 15 years and we have 3 kids (13, 8 and 4).  We had a good marriage and family life.  I found out she is having an affair with a women (her boss).  There were never any signs that she was interested in women.  She will be 40 in December.  What the hell is wrong with her?  Is bipolar part of the problem?

Dr. Heller's Answer:
While she may also have bipolar disorder, the borderline disorder (BPD) is more likely.  Identity problems (including sexual identity) are common as is impulsivity.

Effexor in high doses works for a minority of BPD patients, and does nothing for bipolar.
