Thank you so much for your reply. It’s mad me emotional to read because it all hits home so much and I really appreciate your support so thank you! I haven’t gone to my local domestic abuse team because I’m too scared to rock the boat and for some reason feel guilty knowing that his life will be tainted. I feel guilty on my children for doing that to their dad. I don’t know why I know he deserves it and I would say the same to anyone else but I just feel sick scared at that step! I do know I need to at least get myself the right support so I will give them a call on Monday. I’m just praying he stays away for a few days to give me the chance to make those steps. When he is around I can’t breathe without him noticing x
