I am 29 and a paranoid schizophrenic. I am worried that my 5 year old son with Asperger's syndrome will be taken away from me, if the school district ever find out I am mentally ill.

Is this part of my abnormal paranoia or can this really happen? I live in the US, NY to be exact. I know kids get put into foster homes for all sorts of reasons, but I am really scared of losing him. I could not bear this if it happened and I know he would be devestated, He simply would not understand, and be so scared.

Hopefully someone can put my mind at ease. I have to hide my illness from everyone all the time. It's hard, I am so alone.
