      Hi everyone

       

      (detail removed by moderator)

      I am still in the family home as cannot afford to move out (detail removed by moderator)… anyway since I have filed for divorce his verbal abuse has increased and now involving my children and saying all sorts of nasty things to them about me … I remain silent but I am at breaking point

      (detail removed by moderator), to be honest I am happy with that as want a fresh start, however I was wondering if anyone sorted out the house side of things, moved out (detail removed by moderator).

      any advice would be great, I cannot afford to rent anywhere on my own and do not want the kids to feel I have left them

      Hi Watershipdown,

      Thank you for your post. I’m sorry to hear about your situation. you mentioned that you are still living in the family home while separated. That must be really difficult for you to navigate and an oppressive atmosphere for you and your children.

      You may find it helpful to look at Surviving Economic abuse– they are an organisation that support survivors of financial abuse and have useful guides around if you have a mortgage together and finding somewhere safe to live.

      Best Wishes

      Lisa

      I am in the same situation. Emotional abuse. Filed for divorce months ago but he’s still living here. I don’t want to uproot the kids. Ive got a non-mol order that he is repeatedly breaching.

      If you turn up at court and request an ex parte occupation order / non-mol order hearing the judge will see you there and then and may be able to order him to leave the home.

      There is a website called court nav that will do an AI generated court application and statement then all you have to do is print it off and take it to the court. I did it myself and it was easy.

      (detail removed by moderator). Do you think something like this might help you?

      Hi @TotallyFedUp

      Thank you for this information I’ve only checked this now that’s great advice..

      I’m sorry you are going through this too it’s awful.. I sleep in the lounge whilst he’s in the bed ..he’s been slandering about me to the kids asking them to chose etc.. I’m worried as I just ignore him ..his moods and frustrations he’s having a go at the kids

      We are starting the mediation process as I want out ASAP and for finances yo be sorted so I can get the hell out of here with the kids but mediator contract states they cannot help if there domestic abuse involved… if I tell them the truth it will take longer and cost alot more to sort out…
