Well tomorrow morning marks a year since the first knock (ended up getting two as OH wasn't at home on the first occasion), it feels like this has been dragging on forever whilst also feeling like it only happened yesterday. You would never think that something as simple as a knock on the door would turn your life upside down.

To be honest I felt I was coping ok with everything, and even felt that some good things had come from the events. But the last few days I feel back to square one with anxiety, overthinking and sleepless nights. I guess it's only natural with the 'anniversary '.

Not really sure why I've posted this, you've all got better things to do than listen to me moan.

I think the year anniversary is really difficult, I really struggled with bail dates too. You aren't alone with the feeling of anxiousness either.

Funnily enough I've felt the same after posting today that I shouldn't trouble others with my thoughts, but we have so few people to talk to and this forum is so supportive if nobody posted we'd all just think we were by ourselves with our overthinking, I'm really glad you posted. I hope tomorrow goes as well as it can x

26a20, I don't think you are moaning, but even if you were it would be justified. I think you are sharing your despair... and this is where most of us are, trapped in a desparate situation, which one day will end but will have altered our lives in so many ways we never would have dreamed of. If we can't share here then where can we? Share on, and catch each glimpse of light too. Go well...

Sorry you're dealing with this. I only hope you're not kept in the dark as long as we were. 5 years on and only just had the plea hearing :(
