What Happened When Amber Portwood and Gary Shirley Sat Down Together to Talk Leah's Mental Health
View Story"Because I struggle with bipolar and borderline personality disorder, I sometimes have mood swings and that can be tough on my relationship," she said in a confessional at the top of the hour. "Andrew has always been supportive of me, but I want him to better understand what I go through on a daily basis."
Explaining to him that she had been "getting pretty depressed" recently, she talked to Andrew about how important it was to keep an open line of communication with her doctor. Glennon said the doc suggested they move, with Amber agreeing it would make her happier to live somewhere where it "wasn't snowing literally 10 months a year."
The only problem: she didn't want to be far from daughter Leah, who lives with father Gary Shirley.

View StoryTensions between Amber and Andrew arose when they drove to the psychiatrist's office, as Portwood opened up more about her mental state. Speaking about the crippling anxiety and lack of sleep, she told hm "it's hard living a life like this."
When she added she just wished people would "think of me as being dainty," Glennon tried to make light of the conversation, which Amber was not having. "You just gotta be dainty then," he said with a smile.
"That's easy for you to say, you're not listening to a word I'm saying. Your jokes are not appreciated at this time," she snapped. "We're speaking right now and you're joking. You're not listening. You're the worst person to talk to about this, honestly. Sometimes I just need my baby to talk to me. It's like talking to a friggin' clown."
