Ok, so basically my ex admitted to my face that he is still using drugs and showed me the injection marks on his arms. I kicked him out and since then haven't let him have our son for obvious reasons. I also fear for my safety because he has been physically abusive throughout our relationship and put my son in harm's way.
He has also threatened to take my son and not return him more than once. I have texts to prove this. He told me he had begun the mediation process which I was happy to do and have been waiting to be contacted. But now I have received a letter from his lawyer stating that if I do not allow my ex to have him every weekend ASAP they are taking me to family court and by passing mediation as this is an urgent matter. I ignored it and have found out they just paid to start family court proceedings and I can expect a summons.
I'm terrified that my ex will be given what he wants and then my son will be in danger. 2 days after he told me he was still using, he crashed into the back of someone so I am so scared about my son being in the car with him.
I'm scared of my ex being violent and also not returning my son to me. I was going to try and organise supervised visits, drug testing and consent orders during mediation but now I have no idea how the family court will handle this. I have some texts, a diary and witnesses as evidence but again I don't know how much they count.
Sorry for the long post.
