As long as I have dealt with this in my life I'm still at a loss of what to do.

My son, now 31, was kidnapped at age 8 by my own mother, his grandmother, and my ex, his bio father. He was hidden from me and alienated severely. I fought for years until I couldn't fight it anymore in court.

Then I thought it would end when he turned 18

Nope

So I kept reaching out and would think we were making progress then it would slide back again. I tried like hell to stay unemotional understanding and neutral knowing he's been through so much.

Waiting for my mother to die.

Waiting

Waiting

Well she finally died on the 15th at *95* years old. Still full of hate, still full of lies, no remorse, no truths, she took everything with her to the grave. So he called to tell me she's dead. That he loved her and will miss her and I kept my tongue and offered understanding. Until.

His girlfriend started praising her on Facebook. Of the beautiful soul she had will be missed, blah blah THEN THEN. THEN. started referring to my son as HER SON.

Over and over.

So I messaged her privately and said um he's My son! She started arguing "he's adopted you're not his mother anymore". Now that's not right. Instead of calling it the BULLSHIT that is, I remained calm and said oh youre so misinformed. There was no adoption. Only a name change and lies.

So then my son calls to yell at me that I had no right talking to his wife that way, and hung up on me. Another lie. They aren't married.

Then I'm blocked on Facebook by him and his "wife"

Today is his birthday. I can't even say happy birthday. I have a present I can't send him.

So today I talked to my daughter for over two hours and learned that he really has no memories of me before he was kidnapped. I was totally erased.

So long story short of it, how how how do I handle this? I've been erased, remain erased. I can keep on in my own life as I face but even if I don't talk about it, it's in my head daily. Daily. I had hope before. Rapidly losing it now. My husband is keeping me grounded but the only thing I can think about is without him, I'll have no option but end my own life to quell the thoughts I can't shut down on my own.

How do I handle this!???

I'm losing it.

Thank you.

For a little context I have to haul water, I live in a remote valley in CA, the nearest town is 7 miles away with a water Dept that oversees 700 residents. I applied for bulk water self hauling, and waited weekl without water while the one lady who works there figured out her job. Finally she says come on in I'll show you where to get the water. I drove my truck with a homemade flatbed trailer that used to be a pop-up and have a 275 gallon Ibc tote on it. My husband has recently swapped out the totes since the spigot broke and the tote has an old plate on it. So she leaves the hydrant she showed me, I fill up and get hemmed up by the police who threw me in the cruiser while they investigated me for water theft. Finally she comes out and confirms I was allowed to get it but the cop took the plate off the cube and charged me w CA vc 4463 since the plate didn't match the VIN. It's a wobbler charge. I called to see if I can send in documents to supplement the report and he said no. He said the water issue isn't relevant since I had the wrong plate on the trailer but it wasn't on the trailer and that matters

He wouldn't even give me a readable ticket or copy of the report. The DA won't accept documents. I'm trying to keep is from being picked up since I'm a psychology student and don't want to fuck off my licencing. If I was trying to use fake plates for anything I wouldn't have been legally there after applying for permission and handing over my information to the water Dept. I think it's totally relevant. Don't i havea right to the information and to send in exculpatory documents?

Thank you

I have called customer service and they said it should work. It's not.

I'm so frustrated I could scream. Anyone else have this problem? How do I fix it

I am looking for help to pay the remaining balance for my dog's surgery on the 20th. She is only 8 months old and got pregnant during her first heat by a dog that jumped my fence. I still owe $70 for the surgery.

I am not asking for money directly. I am asking for donations or help by calling the animal shelter directly. The phone number is 760-499-5190 and my dog's name is Missy Hayes.

I've also asked that if there are any donations in excess of what I owe then please put it towards other animals in need.

I have a shelter who will spay my 8 month old pitbull puppy for $20. I got that no problem. But she's pregnant and that adds an extra$100 to the procedure. Does anyone know where I can get that$100? I need to get it done ASAP. I appreciate any help.

I am currently attending GCU but considering going to capella for psych program and was wondering if anyone could explain the key differences in flex vs guided and financial aid for both? I would like to get as much money back from FAFSA and my loans as possible to live on because I'm really struggling with my expenses at home. Thank you in advance.

I'm an online student at GCU and just finishing my second class of my second semester. My third class starts next week and is paid for but I still owe $1400 for my last class, that must be paid prior to it's start date BUT I have a scholarship where I'll get $1500 at the end of that class effectively reimbursing me for the $1400. I cannot conceivably afford $1400 without divine intervention. Lol I asked the school if they would defer the payment since i have the scholarship, and I'm a 3.85 gpa. If I don't get a scholarship, I'll have to drop the class, how will that affect my funding? Does anyone know of any scholarships that would help me out? Thank you in advance

Please take a moment to sign this petition for me. Thank you very much
