3rd time in about 6 months now. This time he really went for it.
First two times hes thrown things at me - albeit 2nd time a large battery.
This time he decided to dig me in the stomach because he didnt agree with me telling him off for something. We went outside and I did grab him and tell him to cut it out (probably not best idea thinking about). But then he started swinging, hit me a few times cut my lip etc.
One thing I didnt hit him back although I felt like it.
Really don't know what to do. I could have phoned the police I guess and got him taken to the cells (this is what CAMHS are telling us to do).
Dont know what to do. For now, we;ve removed his PC, his mobile, his bedroom door.
Hes all sorry but this is not the first time. With a wife whos smaller than him and a 4 year old sister (hes lost his temper with her in the past) I just dont know what to do.
Hiya... oh im so sorry its got worse. Things in my house are not great either the social worker hardly comes since it's not him that's at risk but me. I tried to end my life recently as I thought it's the only way out. My family said I should put him I care too but it's so heart breaking to even consider this but he'll end up seriously hurting me one day. Did u ring police? I did once but as soon as I said asd they said it's not us see camhs but they told me to avoid triggers which is impossible. I wonder if you'd like to swap numbers if u want to It'd be nice to speak to someone who knows how I feel... It's stupid to say but keep strong x
OMG thats so awful....
No not rung the police yet. CAMHS keep harping on about having to do that but I think its just so they're off the hook. I get the feeling that the police would then say ring CAMHS like you had.
Know EXACTLY what you mean. You don;'t want to put him in care but then there are other things to consider like the safety of the rest of the family too.
If you don;t mind me asking, how did you get social worker involved?
Hiya...they got involved coz my son was in the hospital after he was going to kill himself last year ...every time the police are called she gets a report but does nothing ...
Thats awful. I dont see how people can make a career in dealing with people be it nurse, counsellor, social worker or whatever and quite literally not give a toss.
See the same with the people at CAMHS. They seem quite happy to come into work 9-5 ignore whats going on, making sure they cant get blamed for something, whilst peoples lives fall apart.
How do these people live with themselves?
