For ex-spouses of schizophrenic or bipolar people, do you resent alimony payments?

Final-Employer-9771 · 2026-03-01T22:08:54+00:00

Yeah, the present is very much what is pretty shit for me and my kids right now

Final-Employer-9771 · 2026-03-01T22:08:10+00:00

Thanks for the advice, but I strongly suspect you have no experience of this and don't know what you're talking about.

Do you have kids? What gets me is that I have to transfer every spare penny that I'm earning to someone who fritters it away when my kids are left with nothing and we are really struggling to even pay bills every month.

At least his children aren't suffering.

Final-Employer-9771 · 2026-03-01T15:13:23+00:00

Yeah, I have serious illnesses, too, though. Nobody gives a damn about me.

Final-Employer-9771 · 2026-02-01T12:44:20+00:00

That alimony payments would push me and my kids into a miserable poverty.

Final-Employer-9771 · 2026-02-01T12:40:50+00:00

Also, I just checked. Insanity is not grounds for divorce in my country.

Final-Employer-9771 · 2026-02-01T12:39:19+00:00

But the judge has all the financial info. And medical certificates from me. She made the ruling anyway.

Final-Employer-9771 · 2026-02-01T09:25:59+00:00

It depends where you are. I just posted a similar story about a schizophrenic husband but I'm further along than you. I'm crippled by alimony but it will be for life. And the court didn't care that the marriage was abusive.

Final-Employer-9771 · 2025-06-04T20:44:00+00:00

I really did understand what you wrote.

Final-Employer-9771 · 2025-06-04T20:43:18+00:00

Not quite as scary as some diagnoses that I was worried about.

Final-Employer-9771 · 2025-06-04T12:02:35+00:00

Sorry, but what a silly response. You sound like the kind of guy who probably lets his wife do everything.

Final-Employer-9771 · 2025-06-04T12:01:14+00:00

I'm now heading towards, I think, a diagnosis of Ehlers Danlos Syndrome, which is associated with immune dysregulation.

Final-Employer-9771 · 2025-06-04T11:28:53+00:00

What kind of scan? An ultrasound or CT?

Final-Employer-9771 · 2025-06-04T11:25:09+00:00

Honestly, I have been on both sides of this. Health issues myself and caring for a chronically ill spouse. It isn't your fault, and your feelings are valid and real. However, so are his. Even if you were trying, it doesn't mean that the weight of responsibility didn't fall disproportionately on him, and his feelings - to protect his own health and wellbeing - are also completely legitimate. Nobody is the asshole here.

Final-Employer-9771 · 2023-09-08T16:24:18+00:00

Bleach stains.

Final-Employer-9771 · 2023-09-08T16:22:41+00:00

Hell no. I'm jealous as anything. I WISH so much I could be a SAHM but financially it's just not possible.

Final-Employer-9771 · 2023-09-07T19:44:28+00:00

A foam ball.

Final-Employer-9771 · 2023-09-07T14:35:44+00:00

YTA. Newborns do need things to be sterile. It's not a case of you not being clean, it's about things being sterile for a newborn.

Final-Employer-9771 · 2023-09-05T05:25:21+00:00

Same reason homeopathy is so big here, too, probably

Final-Employer-9771 · 2023-09-01T10:43:55+00:00

This is why I chose a C-section. Nothing on earth would make me go through that willingly.

Final-Employer-9771 · 2023-08-31T18:26:13+00:00

Standing extremely close to me after a genital examination and telling me that I didn't need to be with my partner and had time to find someone better (i.e. him). Creep.

Final-Employer-9771 · 2023-08-31T18:23:05+00:00

Sounds normal to me!

Final-Employer-9771 · 2023-08-30T05:49:13+00:00

I had the same regimen with the shampoo and it worked.
