The last time we spoke over the phone(almost 4 months ago), she said that she is going to fight for full custody.. stating the fact that she could win for a number of reasons... the fact that I am currently on a drug called Paxil... for anxiety. It's very important that it is listed in my records as anxiety... because it is not depression. He helps me keep my focus. Can she honestly use that again me?
Also, she brought up the fact that my brother, who lives 3000 miles away mind you, is a drug addict. She couldn't possibly use my family as a tool against me, could she?
One thing I learned was that bringing up issues like these may in fact backfire on her. The judge will not likely care what your brother who lives 3000 miles away does. But if she keeps protesting based on that argument, the judge may sense that she is not being rational and that she is just trying to keep you away from your child without any good reason. The judge may, in fact, give you more custody time rather than less if this happens.
The judge will probably also not care that you take Paxil for anxiety, and again it could backfire on her to bring it up if you can provide evidence that your anxiety is under control. If she could prove that you have a prescription for Paxil but don't take it when you are supposed to, then you might have a problem. Otherwise it will probably only make her look like she is trying to keep you away from the child with no solid basis for doing so.
