Where to go for a break

Where can I go for a break ? Who can I ask ? Who can I tell ?

I need help, I need support

I don't feel suicidal but I'm done, I've had enough, I just can't do anymore

I am pregnant, I have got a three other children one of which is seriously ill

My partner is not supportive, he's not very "nice" to me, I'm not scared of him but I am aware that I am covering for him, making excuses for his behaviour, doing things to try and avoid confrontation, subdue a situation

I carry the mental load of everything, I am trying to work, whilst being responsible for everything for everyone, I do everything around the house and everything related to kids.

I've just had enough now but don't know where to turn

I don't have any family as they all dislike him and how he is, I don't have any friends as I have lost them all

Hi OP

I'm so sorry you're struggling like this. I don't have much advice to offer but didn't want to read and run Thanks

Have you tried talking to your midwife?

You say you have a seriously ill child, could you speak to their doctor or care provider as they may have come across other parents who feel the same way?

Or your own GP? Any women's charities in the area?

Can you self refer online to your local healthy minds team ?
As you have young children can you get any help through health visitor ?
I’m sorry you’re struggling and you need support.

It sounds like you absolutely need support and someone to talk to. If there is nobody you can confide in it may be worth speaking to your GP/midwife to see if you can access counselling. If you’re feeling really bad there is support through 111 option 2

I'm so sorry OP. It sounds like you need help from a women's refuge or charity. Do you have any contact with your family? Would you like to? It doesn't sound ok the way you are living with your partner isolating you from friends and family etc, I hope you can find some support or advice to help you get out of this situation safely with your children.
