Threw DS high chair at me then hit me with a remote. I have a job interview tomorrow I've already rearranged it so that's not an option and I need this job.

I have packed up all our things and hid them I can't have him know we are leaving.

Really worried about this cut being visible tomorrow! Sad

youjustdontunderstand I've reported your post to ask MNHQ for help and you should do the same.

MapMyMum · 25/01/2019 00:17

OP use the emergency sms service that a pp recommended

Maxrichterttt · 25/01/2019 00:18

is There a way of communicating to the police you’re in danger without speaking? Hopefully someone here will know

DustyMcDustbuster · 25/01/2019 00:19

Hope you’re ok OP!! Staying here til we know you’re safe.

spudlet7 · 25/01/2019 00:19

Or dial 999 and press 55. If he's coming after you, you need to do it now OP

youjustdontunderstand · 25/01/2019 00:19

ThanksThanks
And good luck for interview tomorrow. I hope you can get some sleep, and get away from this dangerous man tomorrow.

You deserve so much better.

PyongyangKipperbang · 25/01/2019 00:20

Whats your number? Address? I will call them for you.

PM me (you can do that by clicking "MEssage Poster" above this message)

Bluewidow · 25/01/2019 00:20

op We can’t call the police but if your using your phone then you can text a friend, or your mum and tell them too. Ask them not to reply to your text other than with a simple ok. And make sure you delete the message you have sent.
Stop being focused on the job interview... that may seem like your way out but tonight is not the time to be thinking about that you and your children need to get out safely and you need to get the help if the police to do that .

PurpleDaisies · 25/01/2019 00:20

op it might be better to stop posting here if your ex is trying to take your phone off you.

Don’t feel obliged to update the thread.

You need to contact someone who can call the police for you. If you can post here, you can text a family member or the police.

shuthefrontdoor · 25/01/2019 00:22

Why is he trying to get your phone off you? Can you go to the toilet with your phone? Can you dial 999 in your pocket?

YeahSorryBoutThat · 25/01/2019 00:24

How to make a silent 999 call
The Home Office has a system in place called Silent Solutions, which helps callers, such as domestic abuse victims, who cannot speak to an operator.
If you have not been able to signal that your call is an emergency by coughing after dialling 999, you will be put through to the operator.
If you are in danger, you will be asked to dial "55", otherwise the call will be terminated.

userschmoozer · 25/01/2019 00:27

Remember, that only works if they can trace your phone and location.

Mummybear80 · 25/01/2019 00:29

My brother is a Sergent up here in Glasgow and he has said to call 999 and leave the line open if you can't speak, really worried about you op

calpop · 25/01/2019 00:30

call 999

EnteratA · 25/01/2019 00:32

If you're for real you need to stop wasting time with MN posts and use your phone to msg a friend or call 999 as MNetters have been advising for the last 2 hours. Just do it.

MagicalTwinky · 25/01/2019 00:34

Hope you're ok OP

Ucangourownwoo · 25/01/2019 00:36

Phone the police or text your mum and get her to do it. Flowers

ImNotKitten · 25/01/2019 00:38

Please call 999 even if you can’t speak.

Charlie97 · 25/01/2019 00:38

OP you say you're going to go to your mums tomorrow? She clearly nearby calll her NOW! She'll get the police she'll know your address, no one here can call them.

Redglitter · 25/01/2019 00:40

Phoning 999 and holding the line open or pressing 55 doesnt mean Police will come to.you. They have no way of tracing your phone unless the number is already in their database.

OP genuinely if this is real spend your time texting a friend instead of posting on here. A friend WILL be able to contact Police for you

PyongyangKipperbang · 25/01/2019 00:44

999 and not speaking only works on landlines.

As my ex knew and tried to smash the shit out of our landline phone, but the recorded him and the police were already on their way.
