I have been harassed by a peer that I went to high school with for the past three years. He has verbally abused me on multiple occasions extremely viciously. He has spread lies and humiliating rumours about me. He has used his Snapchat and his Facebook page to cyberbully and incite harassment towards me.
He manipulates other people to harass me in person due to the false rumours. We have now graduated, but he has followed me to the same university to do the same degree, which lasts six years. I want this all to stop and I don't know what I can legally do about it.
I have depression and anxiety and his harassment is beginning to put my life at risk.
My main issue here is that I have not kept a record of everything along the way because I thought this would all stop long ago. In a court of law, I would only have witnesses to be able to prove my case. I would only have a select few people around me that can testify for my emotional distress.
I am not interested in extorting this man for money or any form of compensation, I am interested in a restraining order. I have blocked him on every social media and repeatedly asked him to just leave me alone. I don't know what to do now to keep him away from me, and this is why I am turning to the courts.
The reason for his ongoing harassment has not been made apparent.
My main question is would testimonies from the people who witnessed his harassment towards me be enough evidence for a restraining order or some form of conviction? If not, what evidence do I not have?
Thank you for your help here
