Woman's aid - need advice please

[ReallyNeedSomeHelpAsap]

Don't really want to go into detail as it will out me but has anyone ever rung woman's aid once you've walked out the house to leave that day, I need advice on what to expect when I do it myself. I have no family or friends to go to it will be me and my child with a tiny amount of stuff. I have no money or i.d (I wasn't allowed to get a passport ect) please any info on what expect would really help

Well done op, however if he was given a 3 month no contact order by police then please report all the contact to them.
He has to stop and it will give you some peace.

Ahh I think I've muddled my threads .., sorry if I'm wrong about the no contact order! But do tell the police if he is harassing you

How are things today OP

Well done OP.
I really hope you family are helpful and supportive????
Putting up with the kind of abuse you have is usually a cycle.
I hope not in your case.
As others have said. If someone supportive is there please give your phone to them.
Although I would say block and delete you may need the texts etc as proof to keep him away.
Go to the police about his harassment.
This will also help your case.
Women's aid will help as well.
Your new life awaits you.
Free of abuse.
Well done again!!!

I hope he's settled down a bit with the calls today really and I hope you have lots of rl support now.

You are an amazingly strong woman

He's been arrested I made my statement yesterday they took photos of my bruises and texts from him, the officers where lovely and couldn't believe how bad my bruises where after a week !! My caseworker is helping me with finding a refuge and will hell with clothes and food, so everything's falling into place. And my lil one has finally started talking again so she's getting over the move and changes so I'm over the moon

Wine and chocolate for all lol

Hello op I've just read your thread.

It sounds like you got out just in time as he was escalating. What you have done is amazing

I've left an physically abusive and know how bloody hard it is. BUT the hardest part was staying 'gone'? For me this is when my heart broke, I could feel the pain in my chest when he was ringing up crying and asking to see dd1. I ended up feeling sorry for him . Im ashamed to say I went back because my brain was so battered and confused and I didn't want to hurt him. After six months he started again and I left for good then and the process of texts and crying calls started but I managed to stick it out.

I got a new number. You need to get one too. Don't underestimate how you will feel when your adrenaline has gone how vunerable you will feel when the dust has settled, how much you may miss him and if he calls you just at the right time you could give in.

Looking back at that time of my life makes me so angry, I seen a picture of him on facebook a while ago and I felt physically sick. I'm so so lucky I have my lovely Dh now but I wouldn't have been in the right place to meet him if if I'd still be with my bastard ex.

He isn't a good dad. Good dads do not beat their children's mothers up. Please don't let this thoughts creep in.

Fingers and toes crossed for you op this is going to be a tough journey but if you see it through you will see a new stronger you and a new life

You are fabulous Really!!! So happy for you and you LOL Sorry that you had to go through more abuse before getting out but it's all out there now. Let the police do their bit & prosecute the bustard. I didn't and regret it to this day . As others have said, don't take his calls or reply to texts. Enjoy your freedom & more tops to come!! Much love and good wishes to you

Good news OP. And we'll done for making a statement to the police. You are doing so well.

Great advice from Nina. You will heal in time, but in the meantime, stay away from this awful man and avoid those texts.

Hope you get a refuge place soon.

Well done Really, really really well done!

Well done, that's really brave

So HAPPY to read your update, Really

How wonderful are you!

Well done really. This is the start of your new happier safer life.

Amazing! You have been so strong. I am so happy for you.

Wow well done!

Fantastic. Congratulations!

Been following your thread Really. You are amazing. for you and for your MN angels.
You're all

Thanks everyone sorry I haven't been on I've been keeping my head low trying to recover, I've decided to try get a place really far away I can't take being so close. I'm still waiting on a refuge but I'm safe and the wheels are in motion he's tried everything to get me back but I've stayed strong and he can't contact me anymore or he gets rearrested so that's a bonus! I found this and thought I'd share it, its made me feel so much better
I'm on pills for my anxiety now which help with going out and my little one is finally getting back to normal and settling down to our new life away from him, its funny I thought she would miss him but no signs of that at all !
I really can't thank you all enough for all the support I've received, you all say it was me but honestly hearing your stories of survival after escaping yourselves is what held me up and kept me strong. ((Hugs)) to you all x

Thanks for updating us and I'm glad to hear that you are doing ok

And especially that your LO is settling .

So glad for you! You are on your path now and I wish you strength and happiness. There may be moments of doubt and there will be challenges but you are clearly more than equal to them. Good luck really and keep us posted

Well done Real. You can start to breathe again.

Well done OP!

Hurrah! Well done :)

I think once you are far away your anxiety will lessen.
Hopefully any way.
You've done an amazing job. Reporting him was massive and you did it!
I hope you get a place soon.
KOKO!!!

You are your child's hero.
