He stormed out after a while.

I'm really shaken and I don't know what to do.

He was made redudant and is really stressed. I'm working as many hours as I can to make everything okay but he won't apply for jobs. I was looking online for him but and trying to get him interested and he just flipped.

I'm too ashamed to call up a friend and my parent's phone is engaged.

Please talk to me.

I have one child, he's still at school.

I have nowhere to go. Parents are miles away. Can't leave.

Don't think I'm hurt. Feel panicy and sick.

I'm too ashamed to tell a friend.

I agree with the previous posters, you need to leave.
Go to your parents and think things through there.
That kind of behavior is never acceptable, there are no excused.

I hope you are okay.

I have to agree. You need to leave. Are you ok? Keep with us. If you can take passports etc with you.

There's nothing to be ashamed about. He did this, not you.

If you won't / can't leave, call the police

walk out the door one leg after the other.

Phone police when you are out, pick child up after police.

Call the police. NOTHING of which to be ashamed. If she is a real friend, she will help.

I'd call the police so they are there when he returns. Don't feel ashamed.

Why should you be ashamed? You've just been attacked. This is NOT your fault.

Pick up your bag with your purse and your phone, go to the school, get your child and then go to a friend or to your parents. You need to do this now.

Everything else can be sorted out. For now you just need to be safe.

Open the door and go. For today that will be enough.

why can u not leave ????
you can't sit there waiting for him to come back and pick up where he left off or pretend nothing happened.
You can't challenge him, he's flipped.
Go to th eschool, tell them something very unexpected as come up, family emergency, and keep driving til you get to parents ......

ChasedByBees · 09/05/2012 13:25

Please call the police - he should leave. You can't stay in an environment where he might do this again. So sorry this happened but you don't have to feel any shame, you've done nothing wrong.

Just leave. You can go and pick up your child later, but leave the house now.
