i had a roomamte for about 2 months who had bipolar disorder. she wasn't on any meds and our combined impulsiveness got us both into some weird and expensive situations. i love her to death, but she was always bringing guys home in the middle of the night and yeah, i didn't get any sleep. she decided to move in with her exhusband a few weeks ago. i am lucky, i guess b/c i didn't have to tell her i wanted her to move out. but i don't think that we would still be friend s if she were still here.
my point is, you should do what you need to do to be safe and healthy yourself and that if you want a friendship with this person it is best if you don't live together. tell her that you really do want to be friends and that it is hard when you live together. she will know that you do care and want friendship and will be less hurt. she probably will be hurt, yes, but the truth is best kept out in the open. goood luck!
