my bipolar husband

My husband is bipolar which doesn't help that I have anxiety / panic attacks . He was diagnosed about two years into our relationship . He's on meds to keep him balanced but once in awhile he slips up & doesn't take them... is anyone eles in a similar situation I just want to hear opinions on the matter .or if you could share your story it'd make me feel a lot less lonely . I've come to grips with the fact that our life is not picture perfect tho I believe hard work & never giving up we'll make it
