When I was going to college my mother talked to my room mate behind my back & convinced him that I was schizophrenic. I was not diagnosed with anything. He was volunteering for the fire department & brought in officers to take me to the mental hospital. I was placed on Zyprexa & totally lost my grasp on reality & was forced to quit college & move back in with my parents. I would not find out about my mother talking behind my back until my wedding day where she confessed to speaking with my room mate to bring me back home. Now my parents have custody of my kids & I'm merely trying to get visitation. My mother was sexually abusive. My father was physically abusive & of course they deny these things as well have made up lies about me making threats to them taking some weird advantage off the school shootings & mall shooting by making it seem like I am some kind of headline threat to them. My question is does anybody out there have some kind of similar story where their parents have maniacally taken control & attempted to keep control well into your adult life?
