What do you do when your ex is obsessed with ruining your life. Follows you. Takes pictures of you. Calls DSS on you with lies until they eventually believe him. He has my kids now and still he continues to try and control my every aspect of life and continues to have DSS after me and continues to take me to court about custody arrangements and child support. He makes up lies about me and tries to ruin any relationship I might try to have. I cannot leave my house without him knowing I have left or if I do not even spend the night at my house. I don't know what to do. We have been divorced for 3 years and I still am dealing with this at 40 years old.

Hi, sorry to hear your sad tale. One step would be is to get a restaraining order, that way he can not be near you to follow your actions. 2) I would keep a journal of what transpires daily with this person and get as many witnesses as you can to prove your point. Other then that don't let this person ruin your life
