    That must have been awful @Ragesht! I'm so sorry, you certainly do not deserve that.

    Were you in public at the time?

    You can call 101 (non-emergency police) if you want to report the incident.

    No, I am shielding, hence at home.

    Sorry @Ragesht, I think I misread part of your comment. Is this abuse ongoing? I imagine shielding has made things even more stressful. 

    Here is a link to mankind which offers support and guidance. However, please do let us know how you get on and if there is anything else we can do to help.

    Thank you Chloe, I am a MS sufferer and she has divorced me and I accepted, all before lockdown, I then took her to court for a fair distribution of finance and that’s not taking place till September.

    Hi, so sorry to hear of your trouble.

    I am pleased to read that things are calmer.

    I have MS too...had it 22 years. How long have you had MS?

    Oh I’m glad things have calmed down for you, also glad you filled a police report at least they have a note of what has been going on, take care and stay in touch ☺️
