Feeling scared as f***

So, this will be a long one I’m afraid!

I’m on my own again after splitting with my partner of 4 and a half years. We moved 50 miles away from my children’s schools and were doing the commute 3 times a week. We moved for various reasons (Partly due to my ex living around the corner and making my life quite shit). The pressure became too much for me and my children and I’ve decided to move back to the area my kids go to school. My abusive exh will have a field day when he knows I’ve moved back, my relationship has broken down and I’m on my own.

Anyho, I’m struggling right now. I’m looking for a job, trying to find somewhere to live, broken apart because of the split and scared of what my ex will throw at me. I have no family, my friends all have their own busy lives to lead and I don’t know what to do. I’m also jumping ahead to Christmas. I have no family so it’ll just be me and my two boys and I don’t want them to miss out on having lots of people around as it was with my partner. I’m just feeling a bit sad right now.

So sorry you are going through this but stay strong and it will be ok at times it may not feel like it but it will I’ve been there. Your boys have you and Christmas will be ok as you can do what you like with your boys. I’ve had Christmas where we stayed in our pjs and had fish fingers as that is what they wanted and they still say it was one of their favourite Christmas’s ever.
