Talk me down please 2

Melly, I've talked to a friend who is still involved in WA and she tells me that her experience is that any general rescue may be able to help via their network of volunteers and fosterers. She works with housing and homelessness,and knows that’s the route that she and her and colleagues have gone in the past when there was an urgent need to get someone with pets to safety.
However, local authorities may work with landlords who can provide a house/flat on a temporary basis for people threatened with homelessness. Some will accept pets. Organisations like WA can then provide outreach support (often called ‘Floating Support’).    You are going to have to be prepared to sit on the phone for some time, Melly, so make sure your phone is fully charged. xx

Following more abusive messages I spent the week speaking to womens aid via the chat function. 
Today I called the HA who have completed a safeguarding report on me I then broke my own heart by collecting some stuff and leaving. 

The animals are still there I had to leave them. 

Been crying on and off but I am out

Melly I am so sorry you had to leave the animals, I know it's not what you wanted.
From that I know you must have been desperate so please don't be too hard on yourself about it. 
Well done for leaving, it must have been so difficult but you broke free and did it.

Hi Melly

+1 to what KxMx says.

You can't help your pets until you are safe and settled yourself.

I know Pol still feeling like a bad cat and dog mum though x

You can't keep them safe until you're safe yourself, melly. However much you love them, people (including you) come first.
Is there anyone who can keep an eye on them for you, in the meantime?

I wish you well melly you deserve it. I hope your okay and you've done the right thing, your animal babies will be with you soon Xx

I'm at a mates house so I am safe. 
One of the things WA have said is I need to learn to let this go. 
Focus on where I am going and what I'm going to do.
Use mental floss to get the other stuff out of my head
