Am I right for feeling anxious?

[MummyAndSon17]

So basically I told my ex I don't want him to see my son and I blocked all ways of him contacting me.
I felt like I had no choice as he was drinking around my son, he had previously threatened me on more then 1 occasion, he always wanted control over me and always expected me to travel to him when he wanted to see my son (we don't live in the same area)

Mentally I was just getting worse and he was constantly bringing me down despite my best efforts to keep the relationship civil, but it is just too much of a toxic situation.
I just felt like I would be doing better for my son (and myself) to stop contact before my son got to an age where he was old enough to know that daddy doesn't treat mummy very nice or daddy drinks around me.

But now I'm just starting to feel anxious that he will take me to court and a complete stranger will tell me I'm wrong for making the difficult decision that I did and tell him he can see my son. He's not on the birth certificate btw.

Can someone please help, I don't know what to do in this situation, I feel as though I'm constantly looking over my shoulder.
Thanks, sorry for the long message, I've been holding this in for so long I just needed to get it all out

Aww sending love you sound like you're having a really difficult time. Try and relax and be confident about your decision, you're doing the best for you and your son. Very brave ! Hope you can find some peace of mind. My friend is kind of in the same situation her ex isn't on their sons birth certificate and she constantly has thoughts about him taking her to court but actually it would be so apparent in court that her ex has no leg to stand on and I feel your situation would be extremly similar.

Sending lots of hugs ❤️ I’m a similar situation so wanting to watch this post , hope you don’t mind. I know the feeling, looking over your shoulder waiting for strangers to make decisions because you are being a mother and protecting your son. Xx
