I want a trial separation

[Radley]

I've decided i want to have a months separation from dh, though I have no idea how i will do it, when, or even where I will go, I have no family and no money of my own, i'm also worried that I won't be able to manage financially on my own with two young children.

Has anyone any advice?

no advice just hugs and wanna starta commumne?? good luck hun..

Talk to CAB about benefits/money/housing etc. You might also need to talk to Tax Credits people, in case you are entitled to more Tax Credits.

anyone else got any words of wisdom?

sorry to hear this Radley
You need legal advice, either from the citizens advice or solicitor - some offer 1 free hour that type of thing - I have no experience of this, wish I could help more

I just want to thank the few that replied.

Yesterday i totally lost it with him and after alot of crying from the both of us, alot of talking etc, we have decided that we are going to try again and he has promised that he will change.

I am still v drained, not eating much etc, but not cried today so that has to be a good thing, we have had a lovely day out with the kids and are going to curl up tonight with a dvd and a bottle of wine.

Glad that u are trying to work things out,not as easy as all that though is it....
I know how u feel but have no advice for u,as am in the same boat....Imnot scared of being on my own with the kids,just have no where to go for a trial speration,he wont go...

We have done alot of crying alot of talking and we are still talking, though not crying as much, it sometimes gets too much for me and I break down, but he is there for me. I really don't want to lose him and he doesn't me, so we are going to try, not just for the kids, but for us too.

It's not easy, but we both know it is our last try, we are both making changes, i am going to find my main change particularly hard, but, i am determined to do it, i have become mild agrophobic and don't like going out of the house, but I have promised I am going to go out at least once a day as sometimes I can go over a week without going out of the door.

If you want to talk ebbie, just cat me.

Radley, have you spoken to you GP about the agoraphobia? If you don't feel able to go to the surgery for an appointment then request a telephone appointment.
