Are you Battling Mental health issues?

Jude Kennelly: no, I gave up figting and just do what the voices say

Davina David: What exactly do you want us to answer? You have answered yourself.Yes, many of us have mental health problems. Mine are my eating disorder and resultant depression. I will never give up fighting until I take my dying breath. I don´t want my identity to revolve around my illness any more.

Otto Lingafelt: Ok this is a tough sell to any judge because A. they tend to side with the mother and B. There are allegations of abuse. I am not sure in NC but in TX in such a custody battle children 12 and older are allowed to take the stand and answer questions that relate to their parental preference as well as actions that they have observed. These testimonies are VERY tricky because the judge usually keeps counsel on a very tight leash. They will not be permitted to answer opinionated questions in relation to mental instability, but instead you should work with your attorney to come up with some specific instances in which both boys were present, in which she displayed irrational behavior. The next question that I would have to ask is where there any grounds for the abuse allegations? If this is the case then you are in for a long uphill battle. If not then you will have to prove to the court that the allegations were a product of the mental in! stability. As a counter you could ask to have the children rem! oved from their mother’s custody on your allegations of mental instability. This would force her to get medical proof that she is stable and fit to parent, which means seeing a doctor. Hopefully her hearing that she does have problems from a professional would help her accept the fact, and it would force her to get medication. She would take the meds because she wants to keep her children and prove to the court that with the meds that she is mentally stable. This will in turn, help her stabilize and then give the two of you the chance to work things out. This situation is going to take a lot of patience; throughout the process your priority should be the children, to make sure that they know that they are loved and that in no way is this their fault. (Children tend to blame themselves very quickly)...Show more
