To ask if I can really do this? TW abuse

Hello,

This is not my first thread about my abusive ex. I left him in August and there has been a catalogue of stalking and harassment, including smashing my car and threatening to kill me. I'm a teacher and today I checked my phone at the end of the day and I had messages from a drug dealer, telling me that my abusive ex has stole £2400 off him to fund his crack addiction, and gave the dealer my full address. Cue panic attack as the dealer tells me he's going to trash my entire home unless I pay the money. He then lets me know that my abusive ex has been with another girl the last two years (he also sent me her number, cheers for that).

Now, I rang the police 4 hours ago and they still haven't got back to me. My parents installed CCTV and I am safe at my dad's. But I am fucking broken. Suicidal. How do I process this? I'm no longer safe in the home that I worked so hard to buy (I'm only 25) but also how do I accept that he was with someone else the whole time? It breaks me. Of course I still have love for him.

I need to move on completely, from tomorrow. No contact. Block everyone. Change my number. Change my email.

Please tell me I can do this?

Hello OP, we are really sorry to hear this is happening to you and you are feeling this way.

We hope you don't mind, but when these threads are flagged up to us we usually add a link to our Mental Health resources.
You can also go to the Samaritans website, or email them on [email protected]. Support from other Mumsnetters is great and we really hope you will be able to take some comfort from your fellow posters, but as other MNers will tell you, it's really a good idea to seek RL help and support as well.

We also like to remind everyone that, although we're awed daily by the astonishing support our members give each other through life's trickier twists and turns, we'd always caution anyone never to give more of themselves to another poster, emotionally or financially, than they can afford to spare.
