How do I deal being in a relationship with somebody that has severe mood swings?

My boyfriend has never been officially diagnosed with anything because he won’t go to a doctor, but I’m thinking he’s bipolar or possibly even schizophrenic with the level of paranoia he shows and how he hears things that aren’t there… and having conversations with himself.

those things I can deal with. But he constantly thinks that I am trying to trap him into becoming a baby daddy. I have explained to him countless times that I am not able to get pregnant. I had some serious health issues a few years back and my doctor told me that because of those issues and what they had to do to fix the issue, I will not be able to have a baby unless I go through artificial insemination and that route.

it hurts me to have to keep telling him that I can’t have a baby because it’s very painful for me to think about because I wanted a family (not necessarily with him, just in general). I’ve gone so far as to show him medical records from my doctor showing the diagnosis of what I have and showing the procedure that they had to do. But just the other night he accused me of being pregnant because I hadn’t had a period in so long and I explained to him that I don’t have periods anymore because of what happened to me. Occasionally I will have spotting for a couple days maybe every two or three months, but I don’t have true periods.

usually I end up crying because I’m so sick and tired of having to relive this and then he starts calling me a C*nt and a b*tch and being too emotional. When he’s not in one of his weird mood, I love him to death. But when he has these moments of paranoia or whatever it is, it’s so hard to deal with him and I don’t know what to do because he’ll just make up conversations in his head that we’ve never had and he’ll start arguments about nonexistent things.
