i dont want to go into details but im thinking of leaving dh. Its been on my mind the last 6mths but for the sake of our child and finacial reasons ive stayed. Plus im shit scared of being on my own. We live in tied accommodation and im a sahm so i really dont know the first thing about standing on my own two feet. Ive been completely dependent on dh since ds arrived. What should be my first move? I havent told him yet although ive said it a few times just havent had the courage to go through with it.

Do you have any supportive friends/family around?

My world changed upside down overnight and although i was working it isnt enough to support me at all. I would get a job, call gingerbread and discuss the situation i found them better than cab in all areas.

if you are serious and dont have any relative you can stay with contact your local authority for emergency housing or if you can tholl it for longer wait to be housed. they should then help you with benefits etc

yes although they wouldnt be as supportive if i left dh they probably feel it would be in my interest to stay and work at it. And so i feel i need to have my own place i couldnt move back in with my parents. Im in a safe bubble at the moment but im not happy.
