I am feeling so crap about things

I also think he's done it before and will do it again. I just hope the next person also reports him.

It is stressful and horrible that the police won't take further action, yet I have to see him going about his usual life carefree. He still attends church.

Even if I accept and can't change their minds about NFA, I can't relax because I'll be always vaguely waiting for them to contact me again when he gets reported again.

I wish I could offer you more advice. Stay strong for yourself and your children. This man will get caught in the end, and yes, you'll probably get sucked into it. But for now focus on your children and yourself. You do not have a victim sign, a swine of a man took advantage of a vulnerable person.

He is the one who should feel guilty, swanning around at church, what a bastard. Not your fault. Small change I know, but please try and stay strong. Have you seen a GP about this, I'm not really into meds and stuff but they may be able to take the edge off for you...even just a sleeping aid to get a bit of respite from the bad thoughts?

Thank you. It is a comfort that you're listening even if you don't advise anything. Thank you so much.

I am already on sertraline and it is working nicely. Without it, I know I'd be way worse!!

Another scorcher today! Wish I could just stay in bed all day long! Or in a cool bath.

What are you up to? Life with toddlers is hard, I remember it!!! Full on! Teenagers are a different kind of hard.

I'm on annual leave. I'm retiring to bed and putting three fans on in my room. Damn this heat, 23 degrees is my limit. It's 30 in my bedroom now.

My SIL has the toddlers so I have some respite until 7pm Grin

I'm allergic to most psych meds which is a total bore. Sertaline/Lamatical combo gave me Stevens Johnson Syndrome. I was lucky it was caught early, I lost some sight in my left eye and a fingertip but nothing that I can't handle. Knacked my iPad fingerprint access though.

I need meds but they scare the life out of me. I rely on wine and valium which probably (definitely) does me no good. But hell whatever numbs the pain and knocks me out. I'm a bad ass girl Shock

I'm sure a sensible mumsnetter will be along with proper legal advice or something soon.

You could try posting in Legal with your NFA, they are pretty good over there. They might be able to help x
