Default Leaving Part 2

First let me put things into perspective. I have job, I'm pretty level
headed at the moment.

However, me and the wife had an in depth discussion last night. It
wasn't ugly it was quite calm and collected. She is scared that I will
flip out again due to my schizoaffective dis-order. Although at the
moment I'm quite fine. Well the long and short of it is she pretty
much wants me to leave. She is unable to support me if and when and
thats IF, I flip out again.

She scared of this happening. I supposed I don't blame her. I'm scared
of it happening as well. This is why I have not been fucking around
with my meds anymore. I'm doing want my psychiatrist is saying. I have
completely stopped smoking cannabis. I have the odd few beers at the
weekend.

I have an up and coming holiday to the UK this Christmas going on my
own. Maybe this will clear my head a bit. Seeing my family and
everything.

My feeling is, although I don't like it here I would not want to stop
my kids having a father. My previous wobble on this topic can be
thrown in the dustbin. I'm thinking a little clearer now. Although I'm
just sad about the whole situation.

Would it be to much trouble to ask peoples views please.

It is scary for the patient and the spouse. Is there a support group for
your wife?

It is sad but not irrevocable.

I believe your wife wants you to convince her that you love her and want to
be with her and the children.

Feel free to email me. I have experienced some of this.

Maybe you could tell your wife if you get sick again she can take up an
apartment until your doing better. To just separate with kids is hard and
maybe the two of you are in more love than you think. Don't give up on this
God wouldn't think this to be good and your kids will have problems believe
me. God's idea of a man and woman with kids is for our own sake and he knows
that by staying together things are always turning out better for all
concerned.

Chris,

It sounds like your wife is scared of you.

Social mores and relationships are difficult for many szers to handle.
It CAN be done.

And changes don't have to be "door slammers" either.
Just open one window and let in a little breathin space.
Life is often not an all or nothing situation.

Its possible for a series of small steps to create an emotional
accomadation.

Maybe you should take a series of small vacations apart from each other.
Take turns.
Especially through the shorter days and closeness of the winter months.

Maybe you should play boardgames with her, like maybe scrabble or
monopoly, once a week so so.....
That might help.

See a theripist.
Spelling.
Is it therapissed?
theryptist........
Thorough pist....
Know what,Chris?
I need more coffee.....
And to take my fish oil cap.

Hi Chris,

South Africa is a touch place to be if you are in a relationship
and also suffering from mental illness.
Been there, dun that.

The UK is a far better place to be for you.
At the moment you are able to hold a job, but thing can change
in the future, your illness may become worse, some say it is
degenerative. And what are your possibilities when your seriously
ill to take care of your family? I don't know if your wife has a job?
Maybe than helps when you are in delusion-ville.

Sometimes splitting and going your own way is better than
continuing your relationship. For instance here in the Netherlands
almost 50% of all mariages end up in a divorse. So it is no shame
really to end your relationship. Your wife may find a partner she
can rely on, to bring up the kids and you can go your own way.

Whatever you decide, there is no shame in leaving, maybe
it is for the better.

I keep all options open for him. There are enough post that say
he has to stay. He must decide for himself though.

Nope; but the problem is this :
Disorder or not : a relationship between 2 people whom also have
children is hard for an outsider to discuss .

Your wife and children are part of this and we cannot hear their voices
and opinion

My feeling on this is that maybe the whole disorder thing is just an
extra problem and not * the * problem. Having several disorders of my
own I know that they can be hard in a relationship but in the end it are
the day to day events that make a relation worthwhile or not

IMHO you are seeking our consent for a decision you have to make
I can understand that of course This is a difficult time for you
I can only support you in this way : Stand behind the decision you make
for the full 100 %

flip out how? whadda ya do? twist'n shout, scream and rant?" i

Chris? i ain't you, but if sumbody wanted ME to leave, they'd be
lookin' at my back in about 8.2 seconds and i'd get my shit when i got
damn good'n ready ta bring tha cops wimme ta get it. that's NOT
advice, i just don't like bein' where i ain't wanted....BUT....

....ya said earlier you had kids. you gonna leave because SHE said
so? you have kids to deal with. i dunno where you life, but do you
have social services and legal counsel?

(oh yeah, and glocks?)

> She is unable to support me if and when and
> thats IF, I flip out again.


you have a job. is your employer threatening you to kick yer ass to
the curb should you "flip out?" or is "flippin out" HER term that
she uses to convince you that you''ll be fired, should you "flip out"
again?

does yer wife work? if not, maybe she's providing "insurance" for
herself so you do things "HER" way, and if she DOES work, maybe it may
be YOU supporting HER when SHE "flips out."

you are convinced, possibily medically and psychologically that yer
schizoid, or possibly by HER, ever think of that? maybe you are
convinced yer crazy because she doesn't wanna have the "LABEL ON HER
BACK ! "

WHY? oooooooooh, i could give ya lots'ah reasons, but not on this
forum. i'm gonna catch hell here for this particular conversation
with you, but a private conversation, i'd prefer. i get real
sensitive when people cuss me out ::smile::

(S u b n b e l l l e @ a o l . com is my email if you wanna talk
privately.)

it would kinda make stuff more clear to me to know if she's employed.
but yer not here to please me.

> She scared of this happening. I supposed I don't blame her.


again, what tha HELL do you do? GET NEKKID AND STOP TRAFFIC AND
SCREAM "I'M GOD, YER ALL GOIN' TA HELL?" i mean what do you DO when
you "flip out?"

smokin' pot makes me panic, but i swear ta GOD if i could, i'd smoke
as much as i did when i was'ah kid, and i've never had an "odd beer"
so maybe we can't relate on that level.

i dunno you or her, but i'm thinkin' she has a hidden agenda. i just
get that feelin'.

my feelings are rarely taken into account cuz i'm a nutjob, but
still.... i think this chick is whack.

i'm thinkin' she's playin' you like'ah stradivarious violin at'ah
backyard hoe down cuz she has sumbody on tha side and you're REAL easy
to convince that you're a schitz case cuz you're pro-active in your
own psych arena. i will bet she even translates their diagnoses.

i bet ya a dollar to a donut that if she sat up in an ivory tower for
about 2 hours, we'd be havin' a throw down from tha floor down, if
she'd even go there.

my view is that you need to talk to social services, stop buyin' inta
"MISS THANG'S" bullshit, and possibly have a DNA test done to see if
those kids are even yours.

yeah, NOTHING she says and NOTHIN' i say may be what you wanna hear,
but guessie whattie.

you AIN'T gotten to tha bottom of this and won't be til you stand up
for yourself.

a chick can make a guy crazy, and convince him of most anything.

if i were you i'd pull myself apart from her, involve your OWN support
system, and have HER shakin' in her boots, cuz my first thought
is..... and y'all folks on this forum tell me to kiss yer asses, i
don't care...

is there's a CHANCE these kids ain't your biological children.

she's workin' WAY too hard, in my book, ta get you outta tha picture
and when she DOES, you're gonna be responsible for some stuff you MAY
not need to be responsible for.

she's CONVINCING you not to get into a legal battle with her, because
you're psycho.

so BAM, she automatically wins and gets all yer money, cuz yer too
scared to fight tha good fight.

another reason i say have a DNA test? (you ain't emotionally
connected to those kids.)

i could sit here and ask you about 50 questions that i already know
the answer to that would only lend credence to my suspicions, but then
agin, it's your life.

i gotta disagree that he's seeking consent, i think maybe he's
confused, perhaps a little bit manipulated, frightened, and convinced
that he's "the problem" and possibly he senses that even though he has
"convincing evidence" on his table, that there maybe be something
missing in this enigma.

i think he may feel "outnumbered" and have a fear factor of these
people that's about a level 8.

i agree with standing behind his decision, i'd not sure he's where to
find the means to find what his decision is, as i get the feeling that
he's been "mothered" or "parented" so much in his lifetime that the
decision isn't something he can, with all due respect, find a path to,
solo.

me'n you? we'd be up in SUMbody's grill and makin' waves and creatin'
slaves ta get us tha info we needed and hirin' PI's ta see what's
what, but Anna? not everyone can dig deep for the motivation or even
the resouces that gettin' there requires.

Yes this is true ! OTOH life is an enigma and I am pretty sure one piece
will always be missing That is at its best In my life the whole puzzle
seems to be missing sometimes ;-)

I strongly feel it is hard to support one person in a relation
At best the person believes and feels what he/she says But the other
part of the relation has her - his own story
In the end it takes two to tango If one person does something - the
other person can fight or enable

9 would be okayish too And I believe this fear to be very strong !
I am not even saying he shouldn't leave. I only think it would be fair
to make a rational choise instead of one out of fear
The middle ground could be to go away but stay nearby So he can make up
his mind out of the hurting circumstances

Yup I see this point Maybe that's why it is better to move out for a
while and get calm yes ?

Ahhhhhhhhhh so true And knowing our own motivation and look it deep in
the eyes is what gets us through the day. We are all so different in
coping with ourselves and the world around us

AGREED ! if everything was "together" in my life, i'd FIND something
that didn't fit, trust me.

exactly, someone said that to me in another post. ALL we have to deal
with is Chris's point of view, and i kinda think Chris is looking for
"permission" on this forum, and i could be VERY wrong, to go where he
needs to be to figger out what is to him, at this point, the "un-
figger-out-able."

> 9 would be okayish too And I believe this fear to be very strong !

yes. fear can be extremely motivating when making choices, examples
are obvious.

> The middle ground could be to go away but stay nearby So he can make up
> his mind out of the hurting circumstances


i agree. Chris may be looking for balance and his mind could possibly
be on one end of the spectrum or the other when actually, balance IS a
choice. middle ground sometimes doesn't seem like a "secure" choice,
and maybe a choice not to be reckoned with by an "either/or"
participant which Chris could or could not be dealing with, that
information isn't available to us by Chris.

yes. i agree. when confusion seems to be prevelent, i would always
suggest a "time out" to possibly have a calmness inclusive of a
thought process exclusive of influence by anyone or anything.

i couldn't have said it better myself (of course.)

i DO think there are times to sans the labels, take deep breaths of
life, have alone time, and reach personal conclusions (or not) and
know that there's nothing is right or wrong, there's just "what
is." (aka acceptance.)

Chris could be overwhelmed by all the responses, i dunno... but he HAS
received many, and if were MY world, i'd sign off now and go spend
time with "me" and make a decision to not obligate myself to a
decision, and possibly meditate a little and spend some time in
jamaica (with tanya and Anna).... lalalala

sincerely, it's a good time to sign off and maybe have some "Chris"
time, and that's not unsolicited advice, just a thought inclusive of a
possible choice.

> Always here and watching you missy ! Never forget that hehe


oh keeeeeee-RISTE !

of course i forget people watch others, thank GOD i'm not important

"un-figger-out-able." Good expression That is it isn't it ?
The point of view of someone else is so hard to really see and feel
When reading Chis' posting it most likely give others including me
memories of things that happened to us and the decisions we made.

I think Balance is the word and key to to it all . When we are so

It is hard to find some balance but much needed

Yes the " what is" state of mind is the the best. We tend to live
forwards or backwards but here in the present life shapes itself.
We label so much -we don't have the time to invetigate where this labels
come from Ah well that is just IMHO

Yeah man great I think Jamaica is THE place to be right now

(hallerluyer) THANK YOU FOR SAYING THAT !

I WANTED to say somethin' like that, but i didn't wanna sound rude, so
the way you said it was MUCH better, even respectful.

thank you, ANNA !

(well, i really wanted to say that this "condition" is becoming a 3rd
party in the relationship, invited, and being possibly used as an
excuse for both of the focal parties involved when an excuse isn't
necessary. this tells me there's a HUGE communication problem when a
disorder has become the a party to action within a relationship...
and probably unwittingly, but nevertheless, it seems you're
communicating through a disorder which may or may not exist. i have
more to say about that, but i won't, cuz it wouldn't be appropriate.

so what you said, Anna, was about half of what wanted to say, so
again, thank you !

> they can be hard in a relationship but in the end it are
> the day to day events that make a relation worthwhile or not


i might add that defining your relationship may be an option, and who
is involved, what is involved and allowed in, and maybe setting some
guidelines for speaking with one another. it seems that there's a
peckin' order in this relationship that could be done away with unless
there are ulterior motives that are existing, unspoken, yet
unrelenting, and a blame game is in place to avoid responsibility for
actions within the relationship or externally.

> IMHO you are seeking our consent for a decision you have to make

i personally think the decision has been made where at least one party
involved.

why do i think that?

it ain't my first day at tha rodeo.

speak your piece, own it, you are the sum total of your equipment. be
strong, be self-reliant, otherwise you will be destroyed. (whadda pity
both parties aren't present.)

make your decision, make it loud, make it proud and when someone says
"is that your decision?" look them squarely in the eyes and say "YES,
yes it is."

Chris? i think i would, if i were in your loafers, i'd be seeing my
favorite color, which is "clear."

she is as transparent as my non-existent undies.

i have faith that i would be saying:

"your decision is evident, and STOP the "crazy agenda" with me, it
ain't MY first day at the rodeo."

i KNOW i would continue with "and i may NOT be the sharpest knife in
the gun rack in your eyes. i'm no longer in denial regarding your
decision. i don't CARE what motivates it. whether or not i'm
schizophrenic is NOT an issue. STOP making it one.

"... and if you think i'm crazy NOW, just watch my smoke."

and almost lastly:

"you are NO longer allowed to fuck wimme, or honeychile, yer stuck
wimme."

finally:

"GET on with your life, i have work to do, YOU ARE DISMISSED."

(...holy shit, i turned inta joan crawford.)

and carry on.

it's obvious what time it is, Chris, you know it, i know it, she knows
it, and it's time ta stop scratchin' yer watch and windin' yer ass.

so i said it. nobody else would, so i did. i'm always tha bad guy !

NOOOOOOOOOO WIREEEEEEEE HANGERSSSSSSSS !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

get on with your life, fight for your children (if that's your wish)
and STOP playing her game. YOU HAVE WORK TO DO !

and Merry Christmas.

good day.
