Hi all sorry for the rambling post I’ve been awake all night with worry.
I filed for divorced a few weeks ago and still waiting for my stbx to be notified.
Meanwhile he’s spoke to a solicitor and said that if I move out with my children (one is his who’s 2) from Southport to wigan (41 mins by car) he can stop me. I want to move out of the Southport area due to all his family and friends being here and feeling a little unsafe as well as very isolated and trapped. I have a few close friends in wigan and my youngest sons god mother lives close by the area all of which have offered me support.
I have always said I want my stbx to have 50/50 access with our son, he’s said it’s 60/40 when travelling is involved but I’ve offered to do one leg of the journey. He works full time and I’m a stay at home mum.
I have suffered depression in the past and currently suffering again but that’s due to living in the marital home together and the constant fights and the break down of the relationship. I have always seeked help from my gp and counselling to help and it doesn’t effect my abilities as a full time mum.
I’m making myself poorly with the constant worry that he is going to use my mental health against me to gain full custody of our son. All I want to do is move and settle my children in a new home a fresh start and make my children and myself feel secure and happy!
