Hi -- sorry to jump in here so late but a friend of mine went thru a similar hell.
I don't know if you have time to do this, or if you could ask for a postponement, but it seems like you need a better lawyer, and preferably one who has some understanding of mental health advocacy.
If you call your local chapter [state, city, etc.] of the American Bar Association, they will be able to give you a list of lawyers who are currently doing pro bono [free] work. All the heavy-weight law firms *have* do this from time to time, if only to maintain their image.
You might also find, on the web or in the phone book, the National Organization for the Mentally Ill, NAMI. They should be able to put you in touch with lawyers whose specialty is MH advocacy. Sounds like this is more of what you need.
And re: the psychological testing -- you wrote that XTB knew how to push your buttons. Might he be doing this now?
All you've heard is that his lawyer is requesting that you be tested. What his lawyer wants is meaningless. Unless a judge orders it, or you agree to it [I wouldn't, let your pdoc do your talking for you], it's not happening. Period. I can see you find this terribly upsetting -- XTB sure knows this too.

I'm sorry that this person you had a child with is sick enough to act like such a walking excretion.

Good luck and I'll be thinking of you.
S.
