Hi everyone, Just a quick note to saying I am going to take a break from the forum for a while as I'm worried about my mental health.

I have asked Lucy Faithfull to delete all my posts (so this one probably won't last long!) because as the court case date approaches I'm worried (probably unnecessarily) about being identified.

I will stay a member of the forum though, and I almost certainly will come back at some point.

Thank you to everyone who has replied to me, given support, provided information, listened and said "I hear you", or even disagreed or argued with me. It's all been incredibly useful and helpful in helping me get my head together and clarify my thoughts on what my person did, what has happened to me/us and where to go from here.

I'm sure we will speak again sooner or later!

Hugs from Bitterbean

You will be missed, and I hope the court hearing goes as smoothly as possible. We also have sentencing soon, it's truly nerve wracking and I imagine I will similarly stop reading posts for the week or so either side

Good luck!

Hello Bitterbean

I just want to say thank you so much for your input since I joined this forum just over 2 years ago now, your advice and support has been invaluable and I sincerely hope things turn out well for you and your family. I fully understand the need to stay away from the forum for a while, at the end of the day we are here to support each other but we have to do what is right for ourselves. I wish you all the very best for the future, life still has its ups and downs for our household but generally things have improved and I hope that happens with you.

Pkease take care, look after yourself and maybe we will see you back soon.
With love and a virtual hug.
