"You have something called Bipolar Affective Disorder. It causes wide mood swings and manic episodes between depression, anger and mania. We were going through a rough patch. A really rough patch.

She almost chuckled at the memory of him floating paper. "You've not been taking your medication for a while and you dropped off pretty heavily. I tried to help you and it didn't end well. I know, in my head, that it's not really your fault. You have something in your head causing you to get these swings but it was just too much last night. Last night for me, I mean. I got scared. I took the kids and left."
