I can't believe that I am in this situation. 2 days after the Christmas Holiday, my wife, err ex-wife???, informed me that she wanted a divorce. This afternoon I received the official paperwork. I never saw this coming. 2015 was such a great year for us. We built a house, our Son was born, and I was attempting to adopt my step daughter. But now, 2016, I'm crashing at my parents house as I try to pick up the pieces of a world that suddenly shattered.
And to make matters worse, she is keeping my son away from me. Due to my illness, she claims that I am a danger to my son. For those who don't know, I suffer from Bi-Polar Depression. But I am medicated and do just fine with battling the illness. Yes, some days I feel a bit down, but its nothing like it was years ago when I was not medicated or in therapy. So, an illness that I was upfront and honest about when we first met, and an illness that she said she would walk with me hand in hand to battle, is the sole reason why I'm getting divorced and being kept from my kid.
I am absolutely heartbroken. My whole world is gone. My family, my house, my everything. I know you guys probably don't care to hear all this, but I needed a place to vent. I needed a place to get things off my chest and into words on a page. I need someone to try an explain how after 3 years, someone could just throw someone away like a broken controller.
Now, instead of providing for my family, I'm hiring an attorney, I'm fighting for my son, and I'm trying to find my place in this world once again.
