Phoned police on ex for threats

[inthedarkx]

Phones police on my ex for making threats to kick my door in. Now I'm very stressed and feel suicidal 😢

Hey you did the right thing. Are you safe?

It's so scary, and I know how you feel. Has the police been round?

Do you have kids togethe r? Can you block him? Hope th e police are taking it seriously

Are you safe OP? Do you have kids in the house?

I hope the police are taking you seriously. If you've any worries at all call them back instantly, don't hesitate. 999.

Has he threatened violence too? Keep all the messages you've received and sent. Don't reply to him at all anymore.
If I remember rightly (when I helped a friend in a similar situation) she was advised by the police to send a message to say 'The police have been informed of your harassment and abuse towards me. Don't contact me anymore' then don't reply to any further texts/phone calls.
As soon as he makes further contact it's an arrest.

Please keep talking. We're here. We're listening.

Hello OP, we are really sorry to hear you are feeling this way.

We hope you don't mind, but when these threads are flagged up to us we usually add a link to our Mental Health resources.
You can also go to the Samaritans website, or email them on [email protected]. Support from other Mumsnetters is great and we really hope you will be able to take some comfort from your fellow posters, but as other MNers will tell you, it's really a good idea to seek RL help and support as well.

We also like to remind everyone that, although we're awed daily by the astonishing support our members give each other through life's trickier twists and turns, we'd always caution anyone never to give more of themselves to another poster, emotionally or financially, than they can afford to spare.

Apologies for barging in, we hope things look a little more positive this morning and that the police have been round to help.
