Wrongly accused.

Hi all.

For most of my life and since childhood, anything that was damaged or broken in my parent's house was always blamed on me. Into my teen years it was the same, but as I looked very alike another lad who lived nearby and was a bit of a tearaway, anything he did, was blamed on me and instead of my parents questioning my accusers and talking to me about it, they just accepted that I was guilty and I suffered at the hands of my father. This has basically carried on and even though I'm now in my 60's, it's never left me. Last Sunday, someone waited till dark and left a bunch of flowers and a card at an ex-girlfriends house, knocked on the door and ran off, my ex was looking out of an upstairs window, saw who it was assumed it was me then went to check at the door. Here was a card and flowers, but there was no writing or message on either.

This happened around 5.30 and within minutes she was on the phone to me and did she give me some grief. I told her that I was actually at home and some 30 miles away, plus, I'd not been out off the house all day. I told her I'd take some pictures of the current TV programmes and the clocks on the cooker/microwave, showing the time, I even showed her the footage from the CCTV that's linked to my TV. I did this and called her back, but she was still insistent that I'd done it, had driven home. She couldn't get it into her head that there was no way I could cover 30 miles in a matter of minutes, she knows the trip takes me 45-60 minutes, depending on the traffic.

Here I am, just turned 63 years old and still being blamed for things I haven't done, I cannot escape the false accusations and the last few days has really taken it's toll on me, I'm fed up and sickened off to the point where I don't want to be here anymore. Even with proof from the CCTV covering every part of my house, I'll always be the guilty party.

Hello OP, we are really sorry to hear 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 don't allow descriptions of method, so we've edited this out of your post and will move this over to the Mental Health section shortly.
