So a little over a month ago my boyfriend was admitted to a mental hospital because he had a crippling depressive episode. He's fine and stable now but now he's talking about wanting kids in the future. Well, I'm in the process of getting a bipolar diagnosis but for now it's just labeled as a mood disorder. I started taking Seroquel and that sent me into a manic episode that made me so overwhelmed that I started having panic attacks everyday. What I'm saying is we're not fit to be parents.

It makes me frustrated because I do want children, but by having children we're taking a huge risk. I suggested adoption but he didn't want that. I don't know what to do. All I know is that I don't want to give anyone this disorder.
