Good luck Jelliot. Enjoy the rest of your life.

Well done Jelliot, for having the courage to see it through. Starting a new life will be exciting! Best of luck.

Well done jelliott you have bravely done the right thing, your daughter sounds amazing too.
Enjoy your new life and time with your family.

I thought you were off in July jelliot and am concerned you are still in this relationship. But this sounds positive and you now have somewhere to go, with dog I hope.

Go, go, go and good luck.

Please go to a solicitor when you get to Edinburgh. You have entitlements. Don't forego them as they may make your life much easier.

Well done, and good luck.

Jelliot Fantastic news, you are doing the right thing and WELCOME to Scotland. 2017 will be the best yet.

I hope you can take some advice and inspiration from this thread Cheerfullizzie and take steps to make a new life for yourself

jelliott I am certainly wishing you well and praying that all goes well and you leave in safety this Thursday.
I hope you have got legal help to claim whatever you can to ensure that your future is as financially secure as possible. You have legal rights whether the marital home has your name on the deeds or not so don't legitimise your OH's treatment of you by going without what is yours by right.
Do let us know how things go as I, at least, will be on tenterhooks until I know you are safe. ((hugs))

cheerfullizzy I hope you, too, have found a way forward for yourself. There is much good advice on this thread for your own situation. Do let us know how you are getting on.

I've just seen this thread and want to give you and your daughter congratulations on getting this far, and encouragement that things are about to get a lot better for you.
Definitely wishing you luck and strength!

Wishing you strength and a positive new life I will never forget the peace when I shut my own front door for the first time it was a grotty flat and the three kids were in one double bed with me at the other end but it was magnificent
