I'm so angry I know I shouldn't be, I know this is an illness but I am

He's cut off all forms of contact
Threatening suicide (don't think he actually will attempt but am worried)
Ended our marriage (he'd already moved out but was in the process of moving back in)
Ended our marriage counselling
Threatening to quit his job

Accused me of EA to our DS because I don't want DS sleeping in my bed and keep putting him back in his own bed (he's 3)

And plenty more. And it's all sudden and hurts like hell. I can't go through this again.

I have my own MH battle (OCD, anxiety and depression) and im always left to pick up the pieces for DS and I feel like I fail miserably at it. Seriously wondering if we were kidding ourselves and perhaps DS should go into foster care. I wanted another baby ffs. My time for having one is running out so fast. I need to come to terms that it won't/can't happen and we are screwing up DS

hants portsmouth area..is it free?

It depends, the helpline is free. They may ask for a contribution for someone to go with you to appeal. Give them a ring, because tbh you would be better not going to a tribunal at all than going alone if it's for mental health grounds. Otherwise they will say you can engage with others etc , plan and flow journeys etc etc.

Follow not flow
