Ok, bear with me on this. I decided not to write that much. So, I have to choose what I say carefully. You know how most people lie or exaggerate? I don't. In fact, I understate things. For example, I never introduce myself as "Dr." despite having a PhD. I don't even really consider myself a PhD. I don't have any publications and am a failed academic. But yeah I got one.
Anyways, my point is I am a low self esteem person. I managed to get a PhD, and the dream job for an autistic person (yes, diagnosed ASD and ADHD). I got a remote job that pays really well and moved to a low cost area.
And yet, my wife went nuts on me and put me in the asylum one week and then we were both arrested the next week. Our kids (two nonverbal autistic and 4 non - yes 6 kids) were taken into foster care. The state made up a CRAZY lie about what we were doing. But if you just read the accusations in isolation, it is only a tiny fraction of the story.
In reality, what happened was when we moved to where we are now, my wife said she would be able to make a lot of money with her business. Her business was a consulting business she started 10 years ago and it never went anywhere. She was sure if we moved here it would work out. I didn't expect or want it to work out and I got permanent remote at work for my reasons as well (I didn't want to go into the office).
Well, it didn't work out. Long story short, I told her she needed to get help after finding out she was lying about 25k in credit card debt. There was other crazy s**t I won't go into it. When she got help, the help goes "your wife is in a manic mode right now, she has pressured speech."
Honestly, I did not know what bipolar 1 was. I thought they were lying to me or something. To me, bipolar was depressive too. I never saw my wife depressive. But holy s**t, what followed over the nest 4 months was the craziest s**t and I don't want to talk about it.
But the end game was she decided to start calling the police on me - she started telling them I was having a mental breakdown and she told them I had a gun. I do not have a gun. They took me to the asylum the first time, and every bit of me said not to go back.
I went back because they made going back to her a condition of me getting out early. I was an idiot for going back
Well, two days later cops were at my door at 10PM at night and they had a SWAT team with them. They arrested both of us and took the kids into foster care. Currently I have a no contact order on the kids, and my wife.
The messed up part is their accusations are 100% BS but I feel like I got a "win" because they arrested both of us and not just me. They were believing her 100% until then. She was telling everyone I was unemployed and she made the money!!
