  • how do i make this stop?

    my son who is now 71/2 -started soiling his pants every day after his 7th birthday.He's been to the peditrician,psychiatrist and now sees a psychologist-he was potty trained at 2 1/2 and i had no issue with this until his 7th birthday.Two months later dad moved out-and the divorce occured-my son will keep himself clean during visitation with dad-he says because he is afraid dad will spank him again-in working with the psychologist he feels that is not the answer-time outs-washing his soiled items and having to sit in front of washer dryer until they are clean-but still he continues-yesterday it was three times each time more/worse than the prior-ive talked with him about the teasing that could take place-the possibilitys of loosing friends-yet he still responds with I just dont care-I dont want to use the bathroom and thats it.im feeling frustrated and beside myself with the behavior/attitude does anyone know why this is happening?

    SInce then i devolped three nore herniated disks,suffer with fibromyalgia,arthritis,rsd and constant muscle spasms.so at the time i was 24 and weighed 112 pounds-needless to say the lack of mobility has causes the weight gain.Now even though if Im standing still one may not know the imparments I see in peoples eyes the disgust of the wight gain.Yes it went up now in a 12/14,I do what Iam capable of and sometimes try to push harder but I really pay for it-I ask myself-how will I ever attract another person-I dont over eat-i tend to eat one meal a day-meat veg.and side.But When others come in my direction they seem to go far around me-Im not hideous-just a little rough around the edges.However I have the warmth and compassion in abudence-Im strong in my faith and live my life accordingly-but I never get a second look after awhile it does hurt.Im 36 doing thebest I can-are there really people out there who will see me for what is in my heart?or am i simply destined to be alone?

  • in two days my divorce will be finalized after three years of mental/psychological abuse and cheating help?

    In two daqys it will be finalized.Ive waited a long time-he stalled for a year on signing the papers-played games with the lawyer-found out he was cheating for over two years,the endless lies/fabricated stories-the failure of a tox screen-a hidden secret fpr nearly twenty years of involvment with a murder over drugs-he claimed states evidence-comes easy when mom and dad still bail you out at thirty.So,why do I feel sick,scared and alone.Even though he had lived here-the last year and a half he lived in the other side of the house-now it seems too quiet-I fear for my son whos 7-the influence he may have-Some days I fear for saftey itself-I met him at 19 and now 36 never having gone astray myself i feel a little lost and scared any suggestions on how to get threw this and be able able to stand up and no longer fear him or his words-or how to be brave to survive and make it for me and my son?

  • yesterday would have made eleven years anniversary-and it was a dead day in the water-yet he keeps hanging out

    He knows i have hired a lawyer who is drawing the papers-the first ones he did in july but didnt submit them-now iam tired of playing his waiting game and i want him out of where i live and my personal life.He has repeatedly told me that the reason he"FELL OUT OF LOVE WAS 1-i was not as meticulous cleaning the home after child was born-who has time-i did not put the towels away right-i did not load or empty the dishwasher correctly-or put the dishes away right.well i thought he married me 11 years ago to be his wife not his mom-but he still wont leave the house-he uses the third bedroom as his .Its been a year since we slept in the same bed 10 months since maritail relations-according to him adults in long tern marriages do not need to have physical response towards another.I m fairky sure he has been with someone on the side- The phone calls/numbers the calls at 12 at night-so what makes him stay-is it just to tick me off or make me jealous-wich wont happen after the last threeyears.

  • is it possible for a person to claim to har voices,see animals comming at him to bite,be dx as psychotic ?

    put on genodin a week later recant and said it was a lie to get sympathy,now claiming he thinks he is suffering from aspbergers syndrome 7 year old son recently dx-as i look back at the manipulation,the control issues-where to go not to go who to talk to or not-got really angry when i pushed further into my church and envilving my son in any activites for his age-yes my son is having some struggle with the social end of it but he is comfortable w/the church leaders him and i have been going over five years-and needless to say my son's father hates that i go to church and take our son he sayd im not comfortable there-i often ask myself how can you not be comfortable in the safest place in the world.The divorce papers should be given tomarrow-its been a steady down hill-quitting work/not even looking for emplyment for nine months i supported the family on s.s.d. and assistance from the state.The sad part hes a state correctional worker who had no problem leaving everyone to dry-divorce ?
