      Hi, so sorry to hear what you are going through, Phone women’s aid and the police on 101. I found both to be hugely supportive. Start to keep a diary of everything he does and keep it somewhere very safe – that way you will evidence should you need it. He sounds like a very dangerous man. If he threatens you through the door again secretly record his threats. I hope you manage to stay safe but this is too hard to do on your own.

      Thank you for your kind words x I have had police involved he’s been to court and I had an protection order in place to keep him away but once that ran out he wormed his way back x things are far worse now and I’m scared to get police involved again it was so embarrassing police cars on my front I felt I was to blame he made me feel I was blowing things out of proportion and was a drama queen 😓 I need the strength and courage to keep him out no matter what he says or dose im such a coward now he’s broke my spirit x

      Do not be embarrassed – he obviously needs a bit of a legal reminder. The police are fully aware now of coercive control and have a responsibility to help you. Just giving them a call will help you take some power back. They may well have unmarked cars if you are really concerned about that or you could go to the station instead. Of course he will make try to belittle your feelings – that is what abusers do. Stay strong and safe x

      Hi Dolly

      Welcome and hugs xx

      Have you contacted womans aid and the police. Both have been a great help to me.

      You may be able to get a non mol order on him if he’s assaulted you in the last 10 days. I hadn’t but I have been issued with alarms and door braise for my safety. But as he out of the house they can get extra locks for windows and doors.

      Your safety is the most important thing.

      The longer you are away from him the stronger you will be come. I couldn’t choose where to eat in a cafe at first let alone what I would eat.

      And no one deserves to be abused, don’t feel guilty about saying what he did its him in the wrong not you.

      FSx

      Hi dolly

      I’m really sorry to hear what you are going through, I just wanted to say that no body ever deserves to be abused. You must remember that chick. You are not a drama queen and you certainly aren’t blowing things like that out of proportion. That’s just his way of justifying his actions and taking the blame away from the only person that is to blame – himself!
      I think having a diary and logging everything is a good thing to do, I started doing that a few months back. Sending you a big hug x
