I can't take this feeling in my head anymore. I have Zoloft in front of me. I think I have no choice left but to take it. I am hoping someone can help me. I used to not be like this, but to explain briefly. I had an abusive first marriage and have been remarried to a man for over 10 years, in which I had to raise his children from very young ages. The last couple years, my step-son, who is now 17, started acting out in a sexual manner.
It started with him exposing himself to me (he would act like he was asleep and have the covers pulled down with the pillow over his face exposing himself. My husband worked out of town and I told him about it and after a few talks with him it stopped, but it esculated in other areas, trying to be brief and to the point, I woke up one morning he was crawling in my bedroom floor and I ran him out. Later on I found holes that had been drilled in my bathroom and bedroom door with cotton stuffed in the holes not to bring attention.
One morning I noticed a small hole in my shower stall and looked behind there, this is a very tight space, he was behind there waiting on me to take a shower, he had been behind there almost 2 hours waiting. My husband at first thought it was normal, finally after a while he realized it wasn't I guess because the way it was affecting me.
I am in therapy and so is my step-son. Yesterday, I got my dish network bill and found that he had watched 14 xxx rated movies in the last month, which brought back all the old feelings, (this sick addiction of him stalking me had supposedly stopped about 8 months ago, or he just got better at it). There were numerous other events that happened such as messing with the blinds in my bedroom, looking in the bathroom when I would be taking a shower, etc.,
I am now experiencing extreme stress which is causing my anxiety to be sky high, I feel depressed, I don't feel comfortable in my own home. I am so beat down by this, I don't know what to do.
I have posted here several times and everyone is so great and supportive, I just felt by sharing what I am going you guys may have some thoughts. It is HORRIBLE living like this. Like I said I am in therapy, which seems to be going really slow. I just really need some support and thoughts from anyone who has time to
