Is there anything in your past haunting you?!


Question: Is there anything in your past haunting you!?
Is there something you constantly think of, are reminded of and wish you could go back and change!? Do you feel guilty for something in your past!?

Personally, I'm reminded every day of my stupid past!. I'm the single Dad of a three-year-old son, his mother left two weeks after birth and wants nothing to do with him!. My son is very clever and amazing, but suffers from bipolar psychosis!. This is a result of drugs in his system as a baby!. I was sixteen when my girlfriend got pregnant and I was an alcoholic and on acid, weed and ecstasy!. My girlfriend also smoked and did drugs, I see the effects of this every day on my son and I feel very guilty!. All I can do though it put it behind me and be the best Dad I can - doesn't mean I forget it though!.

Any of you have anything like this you regret!?Www@Answer-Health@Com

My regret would probably be that my best friend since grade one moved away and I didn't ask for her email!. Thankfully, our moms exchanged emails so that was okay!. But then I found another good friend who also left, and all I have is her phone number, except I regret that I do not have the bravery to call her up and ask her if she wants to hang out after school!. (she goes to a really strict catholic school anyways, though!.)Www@Answer-Health@Com

everything is karma!. it was your karma to have this child with this disorder, and it was his karma to have the disorder!. we are all here on "the earth school" to learn spiritual lessons, for our souls to evolve!. before your son was born, his soul CHOSE this lesson; he chose to be born as your son, with this disorder, because this experience is what would best benefit his spiritual growth at this point (in this lifetime, which is one of the thousands we each experience)!. before you were born, your soul chose to be the parent of this child, with this disorder, for the same exact reason!. before each of you was born, your souls chose each other, with great love and appreciation to each other for the lessons you would teach each other!.!.!. there is a book that i think would really help you; email me if you want!.!.!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

I thank the Lord that I have been spared so much sorrow that others have gone through!. The things I regret may seem trivial than your situation!. But what I regret are some of the things that have come out my mouth and the things I've put before my eyes: a sense of innocence has been lost, if you will!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Take it easy man!.!.!. we were all stupid when we were younger!. The worst that can happen is to see our mistakes reflected on the innocent ones!. I'm sorry that it has to happen to you!.

As for me, all my regrets are small compared to yours!. Just give him the love that he deserves!. I commend you for cleaning up your act to take care of your child!. His mother obviously didn't have the strength and courage that you have!. Are you still in school or have you dropped out!? My prayers are with you!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

First - please forgive yourself!. You are now standing in a better place and congratulations for that!. As for your son - it sounds like you love him and want the best for him - and that means loving yourself and showing him this about you!. My mom did not take folic acid and drank rum drinks during the first two months when she was pregnant and my youngest sister was born with a hairlip and my mom was so upset about this because she felt my sister's pain with surgeries and being teased about her appearance was her fault!. But my mom learned to support my sister and be there for her constantly and when my mom died three years ago - my sister said "I lost my best friend!." This is what you need to focus on!. As for myself - I have a bad temper, lost my marriage because of it!.!.!.but it took me finding Christ and praying and now we are friends and our daughters are very happy with us!. Do not worry about what your ex-wife does as you need to focus on you and your son!. You are stronger for helping him!. Please get involved in your local church and God will bring you peace and joy again!. And take your son with you too and ask for prayer from the church!. If it is a good God loving church they will not judge your past mistakes and you will see results in you and your son!. God bless and I will keep you in my prayers!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
