Too close to the crime
Notifications OFF
Hello,
I've been reading your posts for about 7 months now which have really helped me through a very grim time and have decided to post myself.
It is my OH who has been arrested. Totally devastated and could not believe it was true. I've seen the doctor and she said I have PTSD so I'm on anti depressants for the first time in my life. I don't think my OH is telling me or his solicitor the truth really. He's told me some things but I think he's waiting to see what he is actually charged with. No point being honest and telling me something that may never come to light!
The arrest happened in March of this year and I told my adult daughter who is 25 in June. At first she was very supportive and told me we're a team, we'll get through this together. But she secretly got married in August so she could change her name. She told me she still wanted me in her life but I am too close to the crime. She is now moving away from the area.
My brother and SIL were supporting me too but they too have distanced from me because they cant accept what my OH has done and associate me with the crime.
im so lonely and depressed. I work because it gives me routine but I'm worried that if anything is in the media the news will spread fast and I will loose my job.
I have been married for 33 years and I'm frightened to go on live my own, will I survive?
We currently are not living in the same house but the thought of a divorce on top of all the other family drama seems so overwhelming.
my brother and a friend who was also supporting me want action, they have had enough talking about it.
id like to hear from other older women in this horrible situation and what they decided to do.
