Morning everyone ,

Its been over a year i think since i posted anything.

I've come across something PDD and i think all the symptoms are literally me.

My daughters dad & I haven been separated since my daughter was around 9 months old maybe younger.

He suffers from Bi polar which if I honest i don't fully understand , its took him 4 years to be diagnosed and over 2 to get the correct medication.

As I am not fully mentally strong i really struggle with him and how he acts , hes very sly will throw digs and always have something to say.

I've raised our daughter from such a small age he was AWOL for some years , now hes met someone and seems to be much more balanced however with me its always the same.

I usually provide the dates weekends for him to have our daughter , i drop her off and collect her , which has been fine for over 8 months now.

Yesterday he told me the dates i sent 'didnt work for him' - and some dates i had arranged for a family member to have my daughter whilst school was closed cant be done - ( I had arranged these with his family member )

This was him being difficult ans it sent me in a frenzy i was crying sobbing and just in a panic over it ,i just feel all over the place at the minute and be glad of any advice.

Thanks
