I reached out to his church to inform them of what he's done to me. All they know right now is my first name and story. Maybe they can interviene in his behavior. Through prayer, or something. But I cannot let this go.

IMHO, prayer does little more than appease the mind. If you were abused by a man, go to the police. They can help in most situations.

What happened. I wouldn't depend on a church to help; I h ad the experience of being by a (now ex) and I went to the church for help. They were clueless as most churches are.

Churches i find are full of people who are searching. Find a good person you can talk to like a counselor, social worker or therapist. They can give you acknowledgement of you as a person, what you have experienced and gone through. They can tell you how to handle the situation and what actions to take if any. Talking to a police offer if free advice and it might give you peace of mind as well if needed. Mostly, think about this situation as if it were someone else. What would you tell them to do? Hope that helps. Blessings.

Doing it all, his church gave him food and money. They need to know he's a con, criminal, thief, with a gambling addiction. Federal trade commission, social security, County, therapy, psychiatric clinic. I'm doing everything I can do. Today I received a letter front equifax. Someone tried to use my information, they are investigating. I still have more to do. In addition to work through my own personal demons. Anger, depression, sadness, hopelessness.

You need to go on meds right away. You sound psychotic.

Um....I believe that it's up to the OP whether or not she is up to taking meds. It's also a tad bit presumptuous to advise the need for medication when the whole situation isn't made clear and you don't have a PhD in psychology.

They are unmedicated with :Schizoaffective: Currently unmedicated

I wasn't giving you my opinion. Thanks for the comment.

Have you been to the bipolar forum lately? We all advise each other on whether we are acting in a way that seems off.

They asked a question and I answered.

Good for you. It sounds like you are a bit distressed.

I just know that sometimes it is easy to get overwhelmed when off meds.

The hard part is knowing that you can't change somebody's behavior. If you can't change them or get any results from other people remember the only person you can change is yourself. If you can't let go of things it only destroys you.
