Going to the school to see my girls

662 replies

Pisssssedofff · 07/12/2016 13:50

DD2 and DD3 ... The school have told me that they will have to inform ex I am going because they are aware the girls have been staying with him. Despite me having the court order to say they live with me. He's not even on their bloody birth certificates !
That can't be right surely ?
If he's there I'm just going to say hi and walk off ...

Have you read the side affects for paracetamol and ibruprofen?

They are scary as hell too.

I swear by Citalopram. It really helped me personally.

I got shaky and lightheaded for about 3 days, then only good effects. Really changed my mood. I only took it for 7-10 days a month, not the whole time, and a low-ish dose.

Effects*

bobbinpop · 08/12/2016 19:35

I didn't want to medicate either, but I was being awful with my DC; aggressive or desperately unhappy, so I decided I had to give it a go. Not saying you should, but worth considering or discussing with gp

That's handy that the op lost her job, it gives her so much more time to complain about her kids.

Goingtobeawesome · 08/12/2016 19:40

No, no NorthernLurker. You must have misunderstood.

Iamdobby63 · 08/12/2016 19:42

There are other meds as well if one doesn't suit you. I have to admit I have never heard of people taking them for only part of the month I thought they needed taking regularly.

I mean this in the kindest possible way but life doesn't have to be this difficult/fraught, even with the obstacles you have to deal with. Your GP can only work with what you choose to tell them.

HoopsandEverything · 08/12/2016 19:44

Northernlurker She complains about them? She'd never do that. I think it's praise in disguise. It must be.

She is being indulged to a quite extraordinary degree Hugh isn't she. The whole thing is completely exhausting. Having her as a mother must be, well, let's say challenging.

ladylambkin · 08/12/2016 21:34

Op you do not have the children in your care so child maintenance should not be paid to you, your CSA/CMS should be closed

You should also call child benefit and tax credits if you claim them and let them know too so you aren't overpaid

HughLauriesStubble - you're bowing out? I don't see where you bowed in ... and I'm an attention seeker, you make me laugh with these comments. Who can be the nastiest on threads where people are already upset. I might award a prize !!!

You're showing yourself up for the idiots you are, crack on

Goingtobeawesome · 09/12/2016 12:20

People have given time and advice to you. You are very rude.

Newbrummie · 09/12/2016 12:25

Goingtobeawesome - oh I see. I obviously missed the advice from those two.

Newbrummie · 09/12/2016 12:26

If they are posting their vitoral at me they are leaving somebody else alone so as I said crack on.

HoopsandEverything · 09/12/2016 12:32

Newbrummie You are playing the victim so well that I'm quite surprised you haven't whipped out the body chalk yet?

Lots of people have given you advice on this thread. Your GP has given you tablets, which you won't take. No one can be helped who doesn't want to be helped.

BringMeTea · 09/12/2016 12:42

OP has given valid reasins for not wanting to take sleeping pills. Rather a lot of posters just on this thread to attack. If you think she's such a lost cause why bother posting? Some nasty stuff here and not from the OP.

BringMeTea · 09/12/2016 12:42

reasons

HoopsandEverything · 09/12/2016 12:44

I came in because i was hoping she would have sorted herself out, or taken some proper responsibility for her actions.

No point going to a GP, being prescribed tablets, if you are not going to take them. Those concerns should have been aired with the GP. This does not help her children at all.

HoopsandEverything · 09/12/2016 12:45

BringMeTea I went through all the old threads - apart from the GP appointment there has been very little advice the OP has taken.

Posters are asking questions so they can help her, but as soon as sound advice is given, the situation is deflected onto another drama.

There are four children here who desperately need help and stability. The OP comes across as not realising that, not looking at how her own behaviour is contributing and continuing to display that behaviour in these threads. I am actually really worried for those children.
