Thanks for joining us on the forum – glad to have you here. You are welcome to post 24/7 but please note that whilst we have forum moderators we will only be moderating the forum during office hours. If though you need urgent crisis help, please contact Samaritans on 116 123.

Spurgeons and Dad.Info doesn’t investigate reports of abuse or neglect. But below, you can find advice on who to contact if you have concerns about a child or young person.

 

Reporting a concern

It can be difficult to know what to do if you think a child is at risk. It’s important to remember that if you’ve spotted things that don’t seem right, others will have too. Speaking up can make sure that child gets help as soon as possible.

 

The sooner you contact your local children’s social care duty team, the quicker they can act. They’re available 24 hours a day, and can make an anonymous report if that feels safer. If a child is in immediate danger, please call the police straight away by dialling 999.

 

Report child abuse or neglect to your local council

Maybe the citalopram will help?

Hi Mack

So sorry to hear about the predicament you are in at the moment.

Emotions are raw for both of you at this time, she is scared, you are scared.

You do need to focus on You at this moment , as you have had MH for a period of time, you would be aware that in order to get better you need to focus on yourself, it will make you s stronger and a better person, to be able to support your girlfriend and child in the long run.

The NHS is rather slow but there are other support groups that may be able to assist you.

I am not a counsellor in any shape or form, but I have experienced depression , and now dealing with something that has broken my heart. With the support from peer group it has helped me talk thru my feelings, emotions.

Hi all

Sorry for the slow response. The relationship unfortunately i snot a normal one, there is no reasoning. I have suggested mediation, calm discussion, reasonable planning etc but my OH is only interested in laying blame. Its an absolute dead end.

The drugs can only help in the right environment sadly, and i could not be in a worse environment.

That's not necessarily unusual at the early stage - there will be a lot of resentment on one or both sides, and sometimes this needs to be got into the open before you can hopefully both move past that, or at least come to some understanding.
