    • Open Codependency

      I walked out from an abusive relationship a year ago. My Mum died 2 weeks later and my ex has stalked me and made my life a loving hell ever since I left him. Police are now prosecuting him as he will not go away. Trying to stay strong. Trying not to be a victim.

    • Open War & Terrorism

      I have been harrassed by an ex partner for over a year now and it feels like my life is falling apart. Even though the Police have been involved and my ex has been on bail for a month since he was caught stalking my house on CCTV I feel scared every day beacause of how this is effecting me emotionally and mentally. Is anyone else on this site going through this kind of war. As I feellike I have been living in terror for over a year now. Nothing I try to do is easing my fear.

      Treatments

      Prozac Not Working
      Made me feel horrid so stopped taking it. I also have diverticulitis, so the stress is really effecting my condition badly.
