I'm sure some of you might relate. Some of you know i'm dealing with my ex and going to be going to cort to try to keep the mental and physical abusive drunk that she is with away from my son. Anyway, now that she knows were going to be going to cort. After 2 an a half years she desides to get on her meds and the meds are because she is bipolar. No mind you. Her whole family had tried for two years and i tried to get her back on it to. But this is what it takes? The thing is, i didn't know she was bipolar untill 8 months latter and after three months of living with her. Now that were going to cort. She is being really nice to me. I mean way over nice . Man! i should try this more offten with women that have mental problems. I might help out alot on the way. Hell! maybe even wright a book


Had to add this because people dont read through the threads befor they reaply.

So read what has been said so you understand and if not. Learn how to ask question before you asume anything. If people would do this more offten. there would be lest cufusion.

Wow

Just my opinion, but not cool to make fun of those that have mental issues. I get that she probably isn't in the best place to take care of your son though.

Before you go to COURT, you probably should know how to spell it......just sayin'...

people suffering from bipolar disorder tend to not take their meds regularly because of the dumbing effect they have on the subject. Bi polars suffer from manic high to depressive low states..most of the greatest artist in history were either manic-depressive or bi-polar...think of all the great artwork we wold have missed out on if prozac were around in Michael Angelo´s day...
If shes being nice to you, remember its just the meds...probably hates your guts and wants to tear your eyes out, but is too doped up to do anything about it...

So you are saying you plan to impregnate every female you date and then try to gain custody of the child? Or are you going to wait until they start acting crazy to impregnate them?

Somehow this plan seems flawed....

No silly, help them. What i'm getting at is, it take people to be threaten to do anything some time for the beter in there life. if this what it take for some to pull there head out of there Ass. GOOD!

It wasn't making fun of mental people. it was just saying she is going mental. by not helping herself.

Don't you feel taking her meds is a temporary thing in order to retain custody of the child?

the most important part of your post is that she IS taking her medication

not only is that best for her, but also for her (your) child. every kid, wherever possible, should have the love and attention of both of their parents.

if anything, in order to help your son, i'd try to help their mother as well, in whatever way you can; it will benefit your child and isn't that what truly matters?

My ex husband has a similar philosophy. He thinks that as long as he yells at people, insults them threatens them, then they become more productive and work harder.

yes, and thats way i'm going to prosent to the judge that i keep my son for one year and in that year. She goes to domestic violance classes two days a week and see a Councilor at least once a week and in the whole year that she would have to do this. Stay on her meds if she does this. She will get joint custody and if not. For the judge to give me full custody. This will either help her in her life or she will just keep doing what she is doing and lose her son.

yep, it is waht matters and that wahy i'm doing this. it's been ten years this has been going on with her. and i'm at least if nothing else. Giving my son a chance in life to live his own life and not by somone pushing there issues on him. I will not alow my son to grow up thinking it's ok to beat on women. i will not allow my son to think it's ok to lie, cheat steal etc etc. Now what i mean by not allow. is teach him and what he does latter in life is up to him.

He should go to QUART first and have some Peach Moonshine to get his head straight...lol

I'm wondering if I need meds to truly understand what the hell he's trying to say.

Brothar I feel your Pain! I spent five years chashing a Bi Polar love of my life! Found out this, simpily point out that they are screwing up in a lucid moment and you won the game Brothar!
She will lose it, because of the deep denial that they are in, they are in such a deep state of denial, that they tend to drag you along with them, everybody is out for me or the last BF beat her, they will sucker you just because they can tell they you are in love with them, I found mine had had 6 abortions, that was driving her guilt in her lucid moments, then she found out I was shooting blanks, then I was her sex toy, any way you divide it up you were used maniuplated and mistreated by by a not right mind, I guarentee there was never a true commitment from her to you there, took me 5 years off my career to find that one out, not to mention all the money I lost!
Brothar take that child and get as far away from her as you can! They won't fight you when it comes to a true confrontation, I know!
Sorry to be so honest here man but I truly have been there!
John

sorry bro but by seeking treatment she is ok....,..if the doctors thought she was a threat to herself or anyone else...she would be committed!!!
therefore by brining any mental health issues into court it just makes you look petty!!!!

if you truely want custody.....do whats right and be there for him......be stable!!!
and have support in place.
its not a battle, its about doing whats best for the child.

yes I know what you've been through......
I have too!!!
\just say if ya need anyone to talk to I have been there too!!!

if you take his mother away from him, how are you giving him a chance to live his own life, and how are you not pushing your values on him?

sorry bro but by seeking treatment she is ok....,..if the doctors thought she was a threat to herself or anyone else...she would be committed!!!

It's knowing that she is not mentally stable in making the right choices in my sons life by sating with a mentally abusive and physical man is whats going to look bad on her side because this guy has been in and out of jail for at least 6 years and getting booted out of recovery homes etc etc. And No she is not seeking help. this is so she loks ok in cort and fater this in her head if this don';t work out for me. She will stop taking the meds. This is how this woman is.

if your not understanding then ask. It's really not hard to ask question, now is it?
