Good Luck at court today, they're intimidating and scary places! i've been lucky and only had to attend in person once for a family court hearing, but have the trial coming up against my abuser, and im terrified but glad that its goign to be over and done with!

You are amazing! Good Luck!

Thinking of you.

I dont doubt problem solving and creativity are the way to go.

Most of the abusers in my life are dead now.

Its stigma about who are "problem people" that worries me about MI labels.

Hey anne, i am doing well. well, not so well.

I am glad you asked about my brother. i still feel like things are not resolved with him from this whole process. i think it might be my fault but i am pretty sure something is still wrong.

I will leave you a note over in my thread Being misstreated

Thanks.

Dear @Jacques

I am so tired. I got the reatraining order today. I havent answered messages on Sane forums........

The magistrate was so so thourough. She even got my mobile and read his texts to me.

I am so tired. Your messGe is read by me about 4 or 5 times.

We are not dole bludgers.

Dear @Appleblossom

I am so tired. I have some thoughts on your story so will find your story and write them down.

Im just bit tired......

😊☺😄

Hi @PeppiPatty

You deserve a very good and restful sleep.Glad that the magistrate was thorough for you and that its out there now. The police will be much more helpful now i think!

Take care of you 🙂

Take all the rest you need. I am not in a hurry. I am trying to slow the world down single-handed .. delusion .. joke .. whatever .. I am learning from teenage talk.

I think it is very important to make your point about dole bluders. I am "working hard" on this site at the moment trying to address that issue.

Dont worry. I am not in a crisis situation at the moment.

I am really enjoying the sharing I give and receive on this site. Is that my need or my delight? Oh shit there it goes again .. they used to say I "was a poet and didnt know it" at school. That was long before I found my "I".

I am sitting with my doona over my lap, on my cat scratched couch, in my room with lots of photos and my black baby grand piano. I'm such a snooty tooty re some things. Music has been the way my mum and I dealt with things creatively. Its not everybody's way. What's yours? I see you supporting a lot of people by careful listening. As a muso I know the value of that.

Hi @PeppiPatty,

that is fantastic news, i am so glad the judge took the time to make sure she was checking everything, at least now you can get soem peace and not have to be so stressed.

i understand how tired you must feel, i can bearly get up of a morning lately, let alone do anything.

you are such an inspiration to other women in your situation, so strong, so determined.

keep up the good work.

i know we are not, but if you are told enough times you start to believe it.

Take Care and have a good sleep tonight knowing you are free.

@PeppiPatty

I can see you are working at caring again. I think you have amazing stamina and commitment for the important things in life. Dont worry about me but dont stop being you. Tuning out for tonight. Sweet dreams.

@Appleblossom

Without judgement, i have been thinking of the feeling of being in control your daughter feels she has by having her Partner in her life.......

There seems to be a feeling that you have been a great Mum and she is being reminded by the "teacher," in her life.

I think what she cant cope with and doesnt know how to be....is loving to you in a maternal way about your story before she was born.....something about letting go of her own....story and seeing you as someone who had sadness .....

I dont know if im making sense....it feels like i or you should commenrt, if im on the right track?
