Hi not been on in a while OH has sentencing mid May his social says the courts have asked weather I'd allow him to be tagged at our address

As we are separated but still living in same house its Al getting to much fir me now I'm in Scotland



I think he will be tagged rather than custodial as prison here are bursting at the seams

Every day is a struggle

I'm in the process of looking fir somewhere to stay its in the hands of the council now

I have never felt so alone I have no one

Well Monday is looming

Scared for him ..

I know we aren't together but we still share a house





I feel so much guilt I wish he could've just spoken to me

It's a year today he went into hospital fir major brain surgery it was 50 /50 he'd make it just getting over all that and he's home resting and recovering when we gey the knock a week to the day he was operated ..

It's been nearly a year since the knock been in limbo and a blurr ever since second time around

I can't do it again

My mental health won't allow it .

He's sentence on Mon 16th May .

I can't eat or sleep .

I work fir myself It's a demanding physical job .

Bit it's the only thing that's a constant in my life .

Sorry wrote a book x

Just wanted to let you know I read your post Suzie and I'm thinking of you. I can't imagine the pain of having had to go through all this twice - and with his surgery etc on top.

If you think back to how many times in the past you thought 'i can't do this' but actually you could and you did. This is another huge step and challenge. You will get through. You can do this xx focus on things you can do, however small, and try to put the things you can't do anything about to one side for now xx

What resilience you must have had through so much. As Cloud says consider times when you felt you cannot do it -yet you've got through. My thoughts are with you over the coming days and on Monday. Much love to you. Xx

Well not good news if you can any of this good



He received 30 months (this is 2nd time around last time he received 12 months .)



So I'm in shock to say the least I didn't go to.the court but I drove him in

We are Scotland..

It didn't make the papers today .. but someone told me it could at a later date ? It's a long time I can't remember from the last time.?

I'm gutted even though I know it was over with us has been since the knock year ago .

I.dong know it just makes it all reall now..

I'm just in a mess

Gutted angry hurt guilt repeat .

Thanks fir all you kind words

Susie

I have no family none and now I've lost his so it's just me ..

So so.so alone

Feeling sorry for yourself seems like a totally reasonable response to such a traumatic time. Feel however you need to.

I hope you are able to be kind to yourself and when you are ready that you can work out a way to move forwards xx

I read something somewhere about literally hugging yourself if there is no one to hug you. Treat yourself as you would a friend in the same situation. Tell yourself the things you would want to say.

The darkest times do pass xx

Well it hit the papers today ...so now I know exactly what he's done and when he started again .. longer and more horrific than I could imagine .



He wouldn't tell me the police wouldn't tell me

The press have made up a load of s#£#

They put his name street name and area .. so I'm just waiting fir the repercussions .

I'm so alone im hurt angry guilt alone no matter what People say ididnt know anything till.the knock...

We live in a small village

I am so angry ...

He is totally messed up .

I have so much to deal with

I came home last night his work boots were in the hall I could smell his cologne it makes me sick ...

I'm feeling so so alone

So sorry to hear this. I know exactly what you are going through, ours hit the media yesterday.

I took the advice of the lovely ladies on here. I have chosen to carry on as normal, the best I can. Stay off social media and see how things go. I will deal with any repercussions if it happens. Its been difficult not to let my mind wander but I kept telling myself yesterdays paper is now in the bin and each day any online article (I have no idea if its online I presume it is) will be further down the search engine.

You will get through this. Put his boots away and his clothes if it helps do whatever you need, put yourself first x x

Morning Suzie,

I hope you managed to get some sleep. Do whatever you need to today to distract yourself. Go for a long walk, if you can, be at one with nature (I really find this relaxing, calming). Read a book, clean you house or sit and watch one of your favourite films. You deserve it.

Have a good day x we are here if you need us x

Susie, I am so so sorry for what you are going through. I remember so well all my husbands things being around and 'normal' when he left, never to come back. His smell on his pillow. I left it all for a while and then moved it all to one room, until I was able to pack it all up. Heartbreaking. I too lived alone, but I leant on friends very heavily, and they supported me. Try and find someone you trust, they will want to help.

In the meantime, imagine us all here from this forum, remember all our words, and when you try to eat or sleep, imagine us there with you, encouraging you. You are important, you are needed, love yourself and let others love you. Take good care of yourself. Xxx

Hi all I'm OK went back to work yesterday I really didn't feel like it but as he has left me without anything I really need to work..



All my clients know they've known from the start of this nightmare all 19 of them and their families have been very supportive which makes me cry too ????

They all know what's happened now and again they have all been supportive as have my neighbours apart from one !

So far there's been no repercussions fingers crossed it stays that way .

It's coming home to an empty house I struggle with .. I have my floof he's a grey cat called Graydy ..he's noticed somthing is up he's been really clingy which isn't him atal



I gutted the house on Wed luckily the weather was nice (Scotland, )

Did loads of washing cleaned



Thankyou all for you kind words and advice all of it good ..

I know I keep saying it but there is only ME now

I'm feeling very very sorry fir myself

Just crying crying crying

It's been a long year

Thankyou ALL AGAIN X

LOVE YOU ALL

Hi Susie65. Hope you are doing good and adjusting to this new normal.

We are also in Scotland and I read your post saying your husband had just been sentenced. Can I ask how long you were waiting for sentencing since the arrest?

We got the knock at Christmas so we're 6 months waiting now and have heard nothing yet.
