I think my spouse has a mental illness?
I think my boyfriend may have a mental illness. He has confided in me experiences he has had since childhood which could be real but very likely delusions, such as getting vaccinations in the second grade to make him less intelligent because his high IQ is a threat to the government, he says his phone is tapped, he thinks he has seen people in our neighborhood spying and collecting intelligence on our 93 year neighbor and says a person marked his house with some sort of chalk that no one can see, it goes on and on.
On top of this, he has extreme anger problems. He basically blames everyone else for his problems and cannot take personal responsibility for anything that he does, he is always the victim and has a heightened sense of entitlement.
I have asked him to see a councelor but he refuses. he says there is nothing wrong with him and that I am unsupportive and he doesn't care if I believe his stories or not.
I am 5 months pregnant and don't want to leave, I want him to get help. how can I get him the help he needs when he doesn't think he has a problem?
5 AnswersMental Health6 years agoI feel like I am being taken advantage of by my boyfriend?
My boyfriend has a 6 year old daughter that he gets once a month. He constantly complains about not getting to see her that often, however, when we do have her, I practically have to force him to pay attention to her. I am her caregiver. Most of the time he sleeps through the weekend we have her and he does nothing. I am becoming very resentful and feel like an unpaid babysitter. How can I get him to take care of his own kid without sounding like I am attacking his parenting skills. He is not an active father.
5 AnswersParenting6 years agoHow can I make the situation of living with an angry spouse better?
My boyfriend is a very angry person. He is one of those people that blames the entire world for his problems and its everyones fault but his own when something goes wrong-which is nearly everyday. I have asked him to see a councelor and/or couples counceling and he refuses. We have a baby due in 4 months and I don t want to leave but I am afraid it will come to that if I can find a way to deal with his anger without compromising my own mental health an happiness. Any advise?
2 AnswersSingles & Dating6 years agoFLMA leave to take my sick father to an out of state hospital?
My father has been diagnosed with an abdominal aneurism and has to see a specialist in an out of state hospital. He is 73 years and not able to travel alone and may need continual care. I have requested FMLA leave to take him to see this specialist and for any surgeries and care taking he my require from it. My employer denied my request stating I am not eligible because I have to live with my father and already be his caregiver and show proof of this. Can my employer do that? Do I not have a valid case for FMLA?
3 AnswersLaw & Ethics6 years agoHow can I encourage my VERY SELFISH lover in bed without bruising his ego?
I am used to a very involved very giving sexual partner. My boyfriend of 6 months is anything but that. He is very endowed and thinks that just because he has a large penis, no other work is needed. we only have sex in position which is me on top, he expects oral sex several times a week but has NEVER returned the favor. He does not put in any effort to make sure I am satisfied, he doesn't kiss me, fondle me, touch me nothing, just pulls downs his pants and says suck it and ride (*maybe not that vulgar) but that's pretty much it exactly. I am getting to the point where I am about to cut off all sex, if he wants it, he will do the work to get it
he is very giving and generous in all aspects of our relationship except sex. how can I talk to him without insulting him?

2 AnswersSkin Conditions8 years agoMy BF wants me to help raise is children but not marry me?
I'm not sure what to think here. We have been together about a year. We want to live together but legally we cant because he has a child and in our state you cant live together unless married. It specifically states in his divorce decree that he cannot have overnight guest when he has his visitation with his son. Recently we found out his cousin is going to prison and we want to have his son come live with us. so basically by BF wants me to move in illegally and help raise two boys but he doesn't want to get married because he isn't ready, also, if I move in I have to be out of the house by 9pm on visitation weekends, but he expect me to love, care for and raise his family, be a mother to the kids, but not a legal wife to him. I have no idea what to think, any advise?
10 AnswersWeddings8 years agoImplantation bleeding, cyst or early period?
What is going on with my body? 2 dpo i ended up in the emergency room because i had extreme uterian pain after sex to the point i was on the floor crying. The dr said i probably had a cyst burst. The next day i started bleeding very heavy like it was my period and i bled for a week but i had no cramps or back ache, no acne no pms symptoms at all, and if it was my period it was 2 weeks early as i had just ovulated. My initial thought is i was bleeding because it was a cyst. If it wasnt my true period than i am now 3 days. Today i have a sore throat and i threw up in my kitchen sink with no warning.but other than that i feel fine. Any theories?
1 AnswerWomen's Health8 years agoDisturbing dream about rape and abuse?
Last night i dreamt i was kidnapped with 2 other women who were strangers to me. The man kept us all together in some type of underground house and repeatedly beat and raped us. In the dream i ended up pregnant and when i didnt dress pretty enough one day he beat me within an inch of my life and kicked me in my pregnant belly and when i could ni longer move he raped me again. It was terrifying and cried all through the dream. What the heck is that supposed to mean?
4 AnswersDream Interpretation8 years agoCan a teacher lose their job if they have a Class A misdemeanor for harassment?
I filed harassment and stalking charges against a woman who happens to be a teacher (although the charges have nothing to do with a child or her postion as a teacher) and the court contacted me today and advised a judge looked over my case and thought it severe enough that she issued a warrant to arrest her and the court is charging her with civil harassment. I am wondering if she could lose her job over this. I think it is concidered a Class A misdemeanor here in the state of Arkansas. This woman has no right to be around children and I want her employer to know how crazy she is but I cant exactly send the school a copy of her mugshot because then I am afraid I may be doing something illegal. Any thoughts?
2 AnswersLaw Enforcement & Police8 years agoRestraing order against a teacher question?
Im filing a restraining order for harassment and stalking against a kindergarten teacher. It has nothing to do with a child just a mentally unstable woman who has an obsession for me. My question is would it affect her ability to work for a school district. I am hoping yes because the thought of her being around children scares me.

1 AnswerTrying to Conceive8 years agoTWW symptoms? Am I crazy, please answer.?
I almost hate myself and feel totally stupid for asking but i am doing it anyway. So here it is, my ex and i tried to get prego for a year with no luck, my military dr told me it would be very very hard for me to get prego with out hormone therapy due to a lutheal phase defect. I had an oops in the bedroom with my BF of 1 month and it just happened to be the O day, so i am going crazy in wondering if what i am feeling could be early signs
1-2 DPO nothing
3 DPO seriously craving junk food
4 DPO I suddenly get ill feeling around 4pm, within in hour i am totally drained of all energy and i am in bed by 5pm and sleep through til 9 am
5 DPO took three 2 hour naps, im having horrible hot flashes and sweats, took my temp during a hot flash and it is 99.4, then it goes back down to normal when hot flash is over. Im so so tired i cant stay awake for more than a few hours at a time. In bed for the night by 7pm until 10 am
6DPO. i feel pretty good. a little sleepy but not bad, took a nap for about an hour
7DPO feel good again, no need to nap, i have to pee every hour, i probably had to pee about 15 times so far, and started to track how many times i go, it has gotten that rediculous
Here is the kicker, due to my lutheal phase defect, during most cycles i bleed every single day from O day and always have breast pain, so far, no bleeding, no pain. I dont want to get my hopes up especially since i have only been dating this guy a month, but at the same time i want to have hope that my doctor was wrong about me not being able to concieve naturally. the only tests he did on me was blood work to show that i have low progesteron
1 AnswerPregnancy9 years agoAnyone had these symptons, im freaking out?
so my exhusband and i tried for over a year to get pregnant with no luck. turns out i have a luleal phase defect, basically i bleed from O day all the way through to my actual period and my doctor told me it would be next to impossible for me to get pregnant without hormon therapy. i dont want to take drugs but i started taking vitex (natural herbal supliment) to help regulate my cycle. As i am no longer married i am not trying to get pregnant anyway, i started to date again and we had an oops in the bedroom right on my O day and due to the vitex i have actually started to get EWCM which i havent had in two years. so here is the strange part, i am having these weird issues go on, like i said, i always bleed every single day from O day until my period, so far I haven't had the slightest bit of blood, my boobs always hurt during this time as well, my boobs don't hurt at all. on top of that at 3 DPO i started to have crazy cravings for junk food, 4 DPO i have a strange taste in my mouth, almost like metal. 5 DPO i have waves of nausea followed by hot flashes and sweats. I actually took my temp during one of these hot flashes and my temp is 99.4, and then it goes back down to normal. so i guess i am wondering if i stopped bleeding between periods because the vitex is actually starting to work and if anyone has had these symptoms this early in the TWW.
1 AnswerTrying to Conceive9 years agoWhy cant my boyfriend orgasm?
My boyfriend and I have been dating for about 3 months. In this time, he only orgasms about 50% of the time and it has become so much of a problem I actually caught him fake orgasming. We have really hot and heavy foreplay until he is ripping my clothes off, and he is very good at pleasuring me, but i feel like there is something wrong with ME although he continually tells me there isnt. I've have given him oral, hand stimulation, everything we can both think of. He has no problem getting an erection but most of the time he just cant "finish" and he also goes soft a lot durring the act. I am so frusterated and I feel like I just cant please him. We are both 29 yrs old so age and inexperience shouldnt be a factor. Only adult replies, please.
