    Does anyone know if there is anyway I can check if anything is in my name without alerting Mum. I can't do BR until I know. Surely I would have tax forms, statements if there were, I just don't know?

    Can you ask the person who dealt with your late fathers estate?

    Alternatively if probate was granted you should be able to obtain a copy.
  • Thanks South Coast.

    Not really, he died in 2000 and the solicitor is a close friend of Mums.

    I just cant get this out of my head, I don't know why its there, its never been intimated to me that there is anything in my name, I just feel so sick with worry.

    Thanks for the advice
  • I think I need to go see my Doctor, I can't carry on like this :(

    make an appointment next week hun...it's a very stressful time, and on top there's your bipolar...just make sure you are looking after yourself - eating sleeping etc very basic but crucial...
    i don't think you need to explore the 'what ifs' of your mothers finances, unless she has specifically said in the past she is thinking about doing it..what has given you this impression?x
  • Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhh! :rolleyes:

    Nothing is in my name :rotfl:

    Rang mum up and asked, didn't mention bankruptcy, told her I had a benefit review form come this morning asking if I had any assets, savings. Nothing in my name.

    The relief is huge, I didn't like to lie, but I felt I had no other choice.

    One step closer, one step closer

    Thankyou dears X
