Courts

I just got my psych eval back and it made feel panicked because half of what was in it was untruthful. It was the second one I had done for the courts. I’m losing hope for this case. Does anyone know how to successfully beat the system to get your kid back, but to also heal yourself at your own journey and not feel so rushed?

I’ve done two evaluations on my mental health, and while I do have mental issues, the ones I’ve done haven’t been honest. I’m just trying to find one to actually be honest about my evaluation. But at the same time not feel so overwhelmed and stressed about healing myself at the same time.

I don’t know much about child custody cases. I do know it is risky to chat online with a stranger in private. Especially someone who regularly asks people who are in vulnerable places to chat…. With italics. Please be careful.

First of all know you are not alone in your struggle. Second, love yourself unconditionally. We have to love ourselves enough to pamper and heal ourselves. That might be as simple as 7-8 hours of sleep each night. And a 40 minute walk or jog each day, or aerobics on you tube if you don’t want to leave the house. I would say get some exercise daily to produce endorphins that battle anxiety and depression and calm us down. And especially before a mental evaluation etc. Try the Wim Hof guided breathing exercises free on you tube daily before breakfast. It’s done on a empty stomach. You can do it before a meal again if you need to. After your shower rinse in cool water for 5 minutes. Each week lowering the temperature just a bit. Until you are a full cold shower warrior. You tube and Google cold shower therapy for mental health. I have anxiety and health anxiety, and I do what I’m suggesting to you daily. I try to get my grown kids to do it it helps me so much. I have not missed a day of the cold water in 4 months. My swimming pool is 45 degrees now. And I sit in it for 2 songs on my phone. And then go fully underwater the last minute. It releases chemicals that make us feel good. And it releases chemicals we are storing and should not be. The internet will tell you more. Endorphins, dopamine, adrenaline, a few more I can’t remember. With your child and family ( unconditional love) always give it to them. People understand mental illness now as a real illness. And understand why we are why we are how we are. Just try your best and always be a loving person especially with your children. That will over rule any custody case etc . I find it helpful to read peoples profiles on here . Maybe for a mentor buddy if you see similar issues in a profile. I have anxiety and have always pushed myself too hard. So I would not be a good mentor for a person with depression or bi polar because I have never had it etc etc . And part of being a mentor is to help the other person when they need it to.
