i am in a dire sutuation - no physical violence but dh is an alcoholic (in denial), depressive, totally unliveable with. dd is traumatised by him though wants to love him. ds is only little so a lot of stuff evades him. I have to act but I want to know what happens. Injunction over safe house? I cannot take any more. he is a controlling, self pitying bully who cares for no one though he offers lip service to this iyswim. He rants, throws stuff, makes the children cry. he is, in short, a total nightmare and my lo's and i are stuck in too. he will not accept help, not accept he has a problem. It is horrendous and I have had enough. Your advice, experience welcome please

I think the first thing to do is phone WA and talk things through with them. You've done great to recognise that things have gone this far - and you're right, of course, you're looking at potential lifelong damage to your kids, let alone the screaming stress levels you must be at.

Talk it through, find out what your options are. Post back. 0808 2000 247 or email [email protected]

Let us know!
