Feeling really crapy and alone

[Lostpumpkin]

To cut a long story short, (detail removed by moderator), sexually assaulted me, following day I told him to leave, which he got abusive and police was called, he’s got bail till (detail removed by moderator) daughter, he punched her the week before. I haven’t been able to talk about what happened, it really haunts me, (detail removed by moderator) Police (detail removed by moderator) applied for an adult thing as I have issues with communication (detail removed by moderator) I have been reading and he ticks all the boxes of a n********t,he also claimed to be mine and my daughters carer the whole time which he didn’t do, I also believe he’s been drugging me, helped contribute getting me into debt etc. I’ve got a social worker involved, she put in referrals for someone to contact me for counselling, police have also done same yet , no one has contacted me, I feel like I’m having a breakdown atm, locked myself in my bedroom so my grown up sons and my daughter don’t see me crying. I’m trying to stay strong, I do feel like I need help

Hi Lostpumpkin,

Thank you for your post and welcome to the forum. I can understand this all feels overwhelming at the moment- its okay if you need to let those emotions out, you are only human and have been through a trauma. Its incredibly brave of you to be taking these steps.

I would encourage you to contact your local domestic abuse service for ongoing support. They should be able to allocate you a domestic abuse worker.

You can access free online courses created by or in partnership with therapists specialising in trauma at Bloom. These courses can be accessed in your own time and at your own pace and cover topics such as trauma, abuse and boundaries.

Take care and keep posting

Lisa
