Posted before but NC although some details may be revealing.

This evening I just feel I can’t go on anymore.
Had a horrible break up from my DCs Dad. I was left destitute but managed to borrow some money from family to be able to rent a room but couldn’t afford a house for myself & the DCs so they live with their father.
He abused me sexually & physically but is a good father to DC.
In past 2 days he has sent me numerous messages about how I am vile & mad & never laid a finger on me. The abuse is documented with the police but I feel I’m going mad.
Tonight he has sent an email (as blocked him on text) to tell me I cannot see the DC on Christmas Day unless I retract my accusations. I am in pieces & feel a complete failure as a mother . Today I travelled over 5 hrs (its only a 30 min train journey but lots of delays) to see them for 30 minutes.
Presents I have bought them have been bought by the new GF - they were his family’s tradition so I have lost that right.
I am just beside myself

Hi WatchingMammaMiaAgain72,

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 - here. You can also go to the Samaritans' website here, 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.

Sorry for hijacking your thread WatchingMamma , and we really hope things start to look up for you soon. Christmas is a tough time when you are in a tough situation, that's for sure.
