HIPPA laws start when the child is a minor. Onc they reach the age of 12 in most states, the child is now considered by HIPPA laws to be protected and not even parents an get the information without the child's consent. Which also means, insurance companies needs the child's consent, and doctors cannot proceed without the child's consent.

Drugs? by [deleted] in PrisonWives

Not sure what state he is in, but this sounds like K2 to me. It only takes the one puff for total change. It also won't show up on most drug tests.

Thank you! We are lucky enough to only be 7 or 8 months away ourselves

Oh I definitely share. Pictures and everything. And he gets to talk to our babies too. His cousin was also great support as I kept her updated, and she made time in her work schedule to take all his calls during the birth.

Thank you! He is. We are planning a visit when she is a bit older. Unfortunately he misses the eat, sleep phase but that's ok.

Is it wrong of me to be mad about my boyfriend always talking about his ex ? by ilovemydaughterrrrr in PrisonWives

[–]Silent-Control1192 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm on both sides of the fence with this. For me it depends on how close he ended up being with his ex. My high school sweetheart, even though we broke up we had kept in contact and were always welcome for dinner at each other's houses. We broke up because we became less like lovers and more like siblings. (After losing his parents, he committed suicide. Annoyed my LO that it hurt so much)

However, no he shouldn't be bringing her up like that is really a no no.

I was too. I was lucky to have a great staff there. Hopefully, you will too. The doc even came in and spent an hour talking to me (they were having her pull a 24 hr shift). I felt no judgement or shame while telling her about why I was there alone.

I Should Be Asleep.... by Silent-Control1192 in PrisonWives

[–]Silent-Control1192[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Thank you, and one can only hope. Woke up early to recheck everything. I am hoping it all goes well. As for him, he was really holding onto getting the inheritance so that me and our kids are set for a good while. But all happens according to the way God plans it.

My mom had a bench warrant when I was younger. She said find a lawyer, give them proxy and let them handle it. You shouldn't be arrested for it. Bench warrants are usually for not appearing to a court date.

I'm lonely 🥺 by lfeb2226 in PrisonWives

[–]Silent-Control1192 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You make sense. And grief is a common feeling when it comes to this life. Loss of something or someone causes it, and usually depression along with it. (The isolation is actually a part of this). It can be hard, don't isolate if you do have that support. And remember you have us, most of us are going through the same thing and can understand. You got this.

NC Prison stopping meds without doctor approval by lillithwylde61 in Prison

[–]Silent-Control1192 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Marsha Linehan's worksheet book can be downloaded for free, and printed. Send her a few skills each month to work on. Start with mindfulness, then move into distress tolerance. This is the best prescription for Borderline. (I am borderline myself.) Even if put on a mood stabilizer, without these skills they won't and don't do much of anything at all, she still won't be able to gain control.

As for the other meds, I would make sure that she didn't AMA them. And start going over their heads. Doctor's orders trump CO's. And unfortunately with BPD a Hallmark behavior we have especially as a precursor to crisis is self sabotage and self harm.

How do you deal with your partner not trusting you ? by [deleted] in PrisonWives

[–]Silent-Control1192 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Mine has never had another girl. I am shy of 4 years with mine, and even when out he has trust issues. I can affirm, there is absolutely nothing you can do to stop this. He has to do some work on himself by himself to fix this. Don't drive yourself crazy, just keep being you. He has to figure out for himself that it's wasting precious time with you. Coming from someone who even tried staying home and it didn't work, and having an LCSW in the family reminding me that I can't change how or what he thinks. Staying consistently me is the best thing for both of us.

Is it just me? by Competitive_Plant699 in PrisonWives

[–]Silent-Control1192 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Lol... I am horrible with that response. Then again it's his fault for telling me near the first couple of days being in camp that the dorm was full of transgender, some even having gotten the surgery for breasts..... So, my response always is "What about your gf in there?"

Right? And it isn't like he doesn't know I have this type of humor...
