The police have since pressed charges against him and they issued an AVO for my safety even after they had asked me if I wanted no contact and I specifically said I still wanted to talk to him.</P><P>We didn't follow this no contact for the first 2 weeks then he got scared and finally stopped talking to me.&nbsp;</P><P>a couple of days ago, I stupidly called him numerous times and went to his place and he called the police on me and had me charged with harassment and I now have an AVO on me. I feel stupid cos I didn't do any of the things I should have done after the initial assault to protect him as we were planning to still be together. But now I can't believe how stupid I was and the fact that he could press charges on me after I protected him I am a mess. I have no family support as I don't want to get them involved and I also have no friends where I am. He was all I had I am so lost and alone and miserable.</P><P>&nbsp;</P> Fri, 20 Sep 2024 00:38:03 GMT https://forums.beyondblue.org.au/t5/ptsd-and-trauma/feeling-lost/m-p/600041#M23677 MelDee 2024-09-20T00:38:03Z https://forums.beyondblue.org.au/t5/ptsd-and-trauma/feeling-lost/m-p/600044#M23678 <P>Very very important is to now dont contact him at all. &nbsp; You dont want to make this situation worse. &nbsp;Let everything settle down until your court date. &nbsp; If he is willing to do something about the abuse then great &nbsp; &nbsp;Therapy or at least no drugs or intoxication you may still have a future together. &nbsp;I know its hard but you two need distance from one another. &nbsp; Everything works out just be patient. &nbsp;</P> Fri, 20 Sep 2024 05:06:20 GMT https://forums.beyondblue.org.au/t5/ptsd-and-trauma/feeling-lost/m-p/600044#M23678 Scared 2024-09-20T05:06:20Z
