I'm a desperate dad that's been alienated from his children for over a year,my ex will not let me get in contact and my mental health is very low. Help!
hi,
sorry to hear this. do you know where the kids live?
has there been any domestic violence incidents? is there a non molestation order against you?
Well done for reaching out. You can make an application to the court for contact with the children. Its a form C100 and you can get detailed information from the advicenow.org.uk website. However, you need to address your mental state as soon as possible. The court process is long and emotionally draining so you need to be strong. Talk to your doctor who will be able to medicate or refer you for counselling. There will be counselling services near you, so search online for those. The NHS have Talking Therapies and other resources too. Good luck
