My question involves court procedures for the state of: Ohio
I've seen other topics on here like "Suing your parents won't make things better" which I understand. I'm in therapy long term which I can barely afford because I'm an adult. The result of their abuse cause severe psychological damage long term. PTSD (which yes I can prove) which also led to physical disorders due to the constant stress that I am under. There are also several medical problems that I cannot afford to take care of because of this that they could because they have a lot of money. Once again I get that suing people is not the right answer but you need to understand that I believe they willfully and intentionally did this to me, I have a lot of proof to that degree, and they also aren't my parents I'm adopted. I want to know if there is a statute of limitations on doing this. Mostly because it took them years to figure out I had PTSD due to the fact that at a young age my parents got me diagnosed with something I completely didn't have and I was led to believe that was my problem for years until I was able to find a psychiatrist of my own (not connected to them) to get another opinion and officially diagnose me with what I actually have. Their gross negligence in my childhood led to several physical complications (such as ignoring medical issues that had they been treated properly at the time wouldn't have grown exponentially into the problems they are creating for me now). Is there a possible chance at a civil suit against them because right now I'm really hurting for several reasons, I know I could build a very good case against them, my father is a big enough "pillar of the community" he might just settle out of court to avoid a huge trashing of his name in the papers and I'm not doing it to be petty. I'm doing it to pay off actual medical bills that I've paid out of pocket (and gone into debt for) because of their failure to do their job as actual parents when they should have been taking care of me.
