Hope you're ok. We're here if you feel up to talking x

Sorry I deleted what I wrote, I became a little paranoid as to who was reading.
I don't think I'm very well again. I'm under a lot of stress. The past nine months has been hell for me and I thought it would be finally over this week whilst in court, but now it's been postponed again till before Christmas. I'm tired of it. It's making me Ill. I've just had to stand up and give evidence and thought It'd be be all over and now I have to do it all over again.
My ex is making my life hell too, I can't be doing with it but I unfortunately work with him in the same place :(
I'm just not coping. I'm not at the stage of suicide or self harm. I just want to lock myself away and cry. I feel drained...

[Cacoethes]

Sorry to hear that lovely, that sounds really stressful. *hugs*

It seems very unfair that they are making you give evidence again, did you have anyone to support you when you gave evidence?

Could you talk to your boss about what's going on at work? Maybe he/she could make arrangements to make things a bit easier or talk to him.

It sounds like you've got a lot going on at the moment, but you don't have to deal with it alone x

Work don't care, I already tried to speak to them before. I asked tough home sick the other day and got screeched at.
No, I didn't. Nobody prepared me or anything. I'm so scared. I don't feel well. I'm sat atcwork now trying not to burst into tears.

Hey lovely,

It sounds like there's a lot going on for you right now, and it's understandable that you'd be struggling with it. As Beckie said though, you're not alone. We're here to support you.

Have you looked into seeing if there are any victim support organisations that support people through court cases? I know there are a couple here but I'm not sure about any nationwide, or where you're from. It might be worth looking at though.

I'm sorry to hear work aren't being supportive. If your ex is causing you a lot of problems at work and they're refusing to address it, it might be worth (if you're in the UK) calling ACAS to see if they could help at all. If you're not in the UK you could do a search for similar organisations in your country.

Take care,

We have victim support, they're supporting my family, just not me..
I'm so stressed out I'm ready to break. Been contemplating going to the doctors but she's probably stick of me. Everytime I come off meds, I need them again. She's tired of me, I think everyone is.

[Ahimsa]

Maybe that's because the meds have been helping? You should try stick with them.

How come victim support aren't supporting you? You're involved in this case too.

[Aztec]

Don't think she wants me to have them, she wants me to go to silly little groups and talk to counselors and it just doesn't work for me. It's not me.

I dunno. Got the new trial date today. 1st December, great.

[Aztec]

Is anyone around? I'm feeling really panicky

[Patent Pending]

Hey,

I'm around, what's going on?

Could you go to victim support separately and ask for support?

I'm sure your doctor isn't sick of you, it sounds like they want to help you - often people find medication with talk therapies helpful.

Thanks.

I booked a doctor's appointment today for next week.

[Cacoethes]

I'm glad you got a doctors appointment :)
Have you got any plans before then to help keep you busy and safe?
