      Hi, tired mum of 2. Me and hubby have had issues for years. But an incident has left us with police interviews and social services. Myself and the kids have been interviewed and he has his soon. Hes dragging it out. He may be charged. I know I need to leave. But it’s so hard. Part of me knows I shouldn’t need the police to leave him. But I don’t have much support and still very much in the “It’s not so bad” mindset. My main problem is the kids. I have depression and little motivation so I’ll be struggling with then pretty much on my own. I guess I don’t really need advice, just wanted to say hi and I’ll be working my way through this forum.

      I just wanted to say hi, I’ve just joined and I’ve struggled for a long time to see it as abuse. I’ve gone no contact which is hard but my brain is making sense for the first time in ages. Keep a diary hidden on your phone. Take photos, secret recordings, anything you can
