Bipolar ex-wife
My ex-wife is bipolar with schizophrenic tendencies. It's hard to tell when she's telling the truth. I think she's had three or four psychotic breaks in her life. She's only had one of those since I've known her. It happened while she was pregnant and lasted for a year-and-a-half after.
During that time, she filed for divorce and won custody of our daughter. It was actually because I refused to remove our daughter from her life that she won. She refused to let me see our daughter for the first year. She did really strange and terrible things to our daughter to protect her from imaginary creatures and illnesses. She would over feed our daughter until she threw up and then give her medicine because she threw up and repeat this process over and over.
After my ex-wife became medicated, I caught her going from Doctor to doctor to try and get our daughter on medication. I found out because I report I received from my health insurance company.
Since then, I'm not sure if she's gotten better at lying or if she has stopped doing the strange things. I know she does other things like refuse to let my daughter read books that I provide. Consistently tries to give our daughter allergy medication. Sometimes she won't let me talk to our daughter for a week.
My daughter is now 7 years old. I'm consistently worried about her. Are my concerns well grounded or am I overreacting to normal behavior?

Hi, thanks for sharing about the issues and worries you have related to your ex-wife and your daughter. I guess your worries and doubts you could say are normal as a father you want the best for your daughter also, kind of understand what your ex-wife is going through.
Perhaps you could share with us about the emotions and thoughts you get. I guess perhaps it could be hard for your daughter too as she would feel in the middle. Anyways sounds like you might want to talk more about things so feel free to message me.
Bye!
