    Big Aunty, I have started some counselling, run by MIND, but saw her on Monday. Had no idea that on Tuesday I'd throw a fit like this. Its a six session thing, I had already said to her that next time I need to discuss with her what we do once the six sessions are up. No way six sessions is going to be enough.

    Dandy-candy.., I called on my ex because there is no one else. Not because there is any hope for the relationship to be worked out. I knew even as I did that this was the wrong direction to take, which is part of the reason I flipped.

    Keep Positive., thank you for your offer, I do have an outreach worker. She''s the one saying I do have options as described, (but when I saw one of their solicitors, there aren't any legal options for reasons stated), they agree nothing to help with housing etc etc. It may well be me, but they don't seem to have any support or help for this situation. I've been to a one stop in the next town and to my local outreach worker. They both say the same. And I somehow doubt the police will help now if my ex starts calling again.

    Was unwell again this morning So have arranged for my GP to call on the telephone.

    I'd also call Shelter, they may be able to help with getting the landlord to sort repairs.

    Someone sent my ex a link to this page, (that person made a bad situation much much worse, probably the same person who wrote those oh so kind facebook words so I'd advise you to take a long hard look at how help of this sort doesn't?????)

    He came round, let himself in with keys I left when I abandoned everything a couple of days ago. Asked him to leave many times. My older son said something he shouldn't because he was scared, my ex threw his phone to the floor so it broke and left. I've called the police again. Two kids in bits.., again.

    So I won't be posting again. I don't care how revealing I was, what I shouldn't have said according to other people, it was my only way of talking things over and I should have been allowed that. Not a word on here is a lie. Not one.

    DT. I've been lurking and reading with increasing horror at your situation but unable to offer any advice.

    There are some awful people in the world and they seem compelled to stick their oars in when they have nothing useful to add - the one who sent the link to this thread to your ex is onesuch.

    They've simply made a bad situation worse - I feel bad for you DT but sympathy is no help to you, I know that.

    I wish you well.

    There has been some good advice on here - heed that and keep going.

    To the one who 'helped' her ex, shame on you. :mad:
    :huh: Don't know what I'm doing, but doing it anyway... :huh:

    Sad to read that Deanna - there are far too many people who wish to interfere!

    Stay strong, talk to your doctor, get your medication under control, talk to your eldest son - he sounds like a sensible lad who is a good support to you. Don't make any decisions in a rush, but think, think again, and make plans. Good luckx

    I've been following your thread but not posted as I don't have any advice I'm afraid.

    However, I'm horrified that someone reading your thread can be so absolutely dispicable. You're in a world of pain and that person has stuck a knife in and twisted it. Do you have any idea who it was?

    I'm so sorry for what you're going through. I wish there was some way we could help you.

    (((hugs)))
