Can ptsd be used against me in court?
My ex is trying to claim child abuse on my part in court. I have spent a lot of money taking a lie detector test and having the police come over to inspect my home and interview my children. However, even though they found that I am innocent... because she went to the courts saying I did I have to prove this to them as well. Her lawyer is now trying to pull my PTSD diagnosed by the VA most likely to say I am an unfit parent. I have mild PTSD and have never experienced a black out and went through all my counseling with the VA. He is requesting my medical history which I don't know if I have to give it to him... and me having PTSD has nothing to do with why we are in court in the first place to make sure my kids are safe and to figure out where my son received this rash on his back from. I personally didn't notice it until the first night I had him when I gave him a bath. I contacted the mother immediately asking her if she knew... and now she is using this as a chance to try and take the kids from me.
