Hey CB 

The healing is happening I am so glad for you and your son .You are such a kind caring parent.
I know how very difficult this must be and at the same time be so happy for his recovery.
Why would your son need his  thyroid checked?

Bipolar in the manic phase can be misdignosed as n spots but bipolar has more to do with moods
and when the "manic "is under control
living with bipolar is much easier for all.

You sure do have a lot going on I am so glad things are easing up for you.
I never was in a hospital for bipolar.I am sure he has had much to deal with so young.
Is it possible his behaviors are learned then from his N dad??????

Write has bipolar and does not take meds.
medication has helped me.

thanks for letting me know
my prayers are with you

He is a hero....... mine too.

so much love to you CB

Dear CB

You are some Mom.  I am so glad that your son is doing so well.  It is so difficult walking this journey with hiim but he is blessed to have such a loving an supportive Mom to hold his hand along the way.  Poor kid has so much to deal with besides having to engage with a dammed N.

I know of people who have had psychotic episodes along with depression, dont know much about it but hopefully with love, therapy and support he will grow towards health.

I so admire you,

axa

CB,
Thanks for sharing this. What a mother you are.
I am sending almighty vibes to you and to your unscary, benevolent, onyourside, notyourhusband lawyer!

Your son's story gives me hope for my D.

I wonder if it would be offensive to give her the book?

I'll read it myself first...I think I read it a long time ago.

Thanks again, and my thoughts stay with you.

love,
Hops

Hi CB & Hops,

Reading through my recently acquired copy of "Trapped in the Mirror"

and it is truly amazing, an awareness raising self-heal book.

CB,
Why exactly did they diagnose your som with psychosis? I don't know anything about it and must have missed where you talked about it.
I had Grave's disease as well. I also had my thyroid ablated. It has taken me a few years to get back to feeling normal. I was suffering from deep anxiety from the disease and depression and I know I had post partum depression (although I didn't know it at the time). And that depression was fairly extreme. I was also absolutely unaware of how strangely I was behaving. I was a mess, yet I didn't know it. It is hard to tell you what it was like, because I don't really know what I was like.
With Grave's I think you relly do need to have your thyroid out. Then you need to keep getting checked to keep your thyroid in balance as so many things can affect it.
Hugs to you and to your son.
Love, Beth

Hi CB:

Reading this thread I was cheering that the jerk wants to go and I was wanting to add nasty names to the list and was relieved/glad that you have what sure seems like a good lawyer and worried that your ex is just trying to skip off and abandon everyone, without paying, and hopeful that there are legal steps that can be taken to help you sell your farm and do what has to be done to secure your financial well-being.   Then I felt so happy to hear that your son is doing better and is back home and sad that your daughter is hurt because of being replaced and one thought kept popping into my head.......

these seem like blessings.

If he wants to go away on an adventure.....yipee....because maybe he'll stay away long enough for you to get moved and for everyone to adjust a little.  What a blessing!!

Your lawyer knowing the judge so well and being so fatherly toward you....yay!  Maybe he can find a way to nail this bum's bum down financially and MAYBE EVEN  do something to cut into his visitation of the children, since he seems to think he can just up and leave, at his convenience, and thus is truly....abandoning them!
What a blessing!!

And your son is doing better and is home and oh....what a blessing!!

And your daughter?  Maybe it's better she sees the light now, even though it is painful? Maybe it will prevent her from having to feel it in pieces, year after year, time after time.....like a slow, agonizing toothache?  Maybe, yanking that tooth out and getting the pain overwith is a blessing in disguise??

You may not be feeling like celebrating but I hope these are indeed blessings that will help you along through this time of change and struggling.  You are my heroine CB!!  You seem so level headed and wise!  And what a wonderful mom too!!   What a blessing you are to your children!!

I hope the creep keeps taking rope and financially, legally, and parental-rightly hangs himself!!!

Sela,

...you had me rolling at "nail the bum's bum down!"  I will be giggling all day.  Hoping all the while that CB is finding relief with each new day and each new seemingly wrong thing he is pulling.

CB,
Have you read Vaknin's advice on how to Divorce the N?  I know he IS one---but he really pegs a lot of the behaviors.  Anything you can scare him with???  And watch him squirm like a child in the dark, afraid of his own demons?

http://samvak.tripod.com/divorcenarcissistpsychopath.html#Court

Above is the link I am referring to.  It is interesting.  I think there are few tips in there I can use now.  Hope you can.
