:yeahthat:

So sorry that you're in this difficult situation atm. I agree with the others - contact centrelink direct to discuss your financial situation and what you'd be entitled to.

Another thought I had reading your post is - what if some of your IRL friends knew more? Would they be likely to provide you with some support? I know it feels horrible now (and it is) but it doesn't sound like you have a time limit to make this decision (only the emotional difficulty of the current living situation). I could be wrong there, clearly there was an incident 2 weeks ago. Take your time in making the decision. Are you able to access any counselling? Someone at your local community health centre would know of the local womens services/charities etc that could help you practically to set up a new home. Even if its a service like Lifeline when your DH is at work - just to talk it through with someone it might help you to organise your thoughts a little better (if you're not keen to tell your IRL friends or anyone here on BB just yet).

I'm wishing you all the very best and sending you a big You can get through this. xoxo
