This is the place to talk about your experience with bipolar disorder, learn from others' experiences, and find support.
My 15yo son just got done telling me some not so good things that a very abusive ex-live in boyfriend of mine did to him and I am about to freaking lose it here. I don't know what to say to him, I don't know what to do....it's triggering me and making me very upset. It broke my heart as I didn't know he did these things or I would have kicked him out alot sooner than I did. My son started to cry and so did I....shit this sucks.
I am glad that he came to me but now I want to find this man and maime him!!!! I want to find this man and really "F" his world up! My son said that he doesn't even like living in the same house because of the bad memories!
It was hell for all of us for about 4 years but I finally was able to stand my ground and kick the man out.....but I didn't know the total mind games he played on him, and he even smacked him a few times and he was only in the 1st grade!!!!! Shit what do I do now??!!

Once again I've had a fever today. I'm not going to the hospital because that's a huge waste of time but I did schedule a dr appointment for Wednesday afternoon.
I always had a suspicion that my youngest had been sexually abused but even tho there are pedophiles on both sides of her genetic tree I couldnt prove who had done what (God what a fucked up family)
When she was 15 she cut and landed her ass on the behavorial floor. I am a cutter so it was a little easier for her to start to come clean (tho to this day she wont say much) Anyways yeah she had been abused doesnt remember who did what but the cutting was a big sign in her case. She wouldnt go to therapy tho (she lives in land of denial about miost things) - to this day I wish I had made her go
It explains some of his current issues too, I feel it does anyway....he tends to get depressed, has esteem issues and still wets the bed on occasion. sigh
Man, this is tough, he said he doesn't blame for anything but he hated feeling so helpless when he saw me getting hit and then he got up and walked away with tears in his eyes.......oh boy I am glad that he said SOMEthing to me though better now than never huh??
I tell him every single day many times that I love him and give him hugs.....he's such a good kid and it just breaks my freaking heart that he's hurting like this.
I'm so glad he wants to go to therapy...
Try and keep it together for him tats as hard as it is... I think he probably needs you to be strong in order for him to keep talking to you openly and be able to vent when he needs to...
God bless you both...;massive hug of comfort for you..xo
Just seeing you abused is reason enough for him to find a place to let him feelings out.
Therapy that I had when I was in my 20's helped me heal from a childhood filled with all the usual, horrible stuff.
I think it saved my life. (So far.)
I can't even imagine how sickened and angry you must feel. I'd be livid with rage. I'd like to see him get what he's got coming to him!!
I'm so sorry, tats. For your boy. For you. For all of you.
(((((Hugs)))))
