Harassing Phone Calls

Since I left I'm getting non-stop voicemails from drunk AH. When I turned my phone back on this morning I had ten. He's rambling and accusing me of sleeping with guys, telling me he will kill anyone who does, etc. Part of me is a little afraid to ignore him in the state of mind he's in. But I know it's pointless talking when he's like this. I'm also afraid he's going to get hurt. Is ignoring the best thing to do?

My mom always told me, "You can't reason with a drunk." So why try?

Ignore, don't listen, and block if you can. But, I wouldn't delete them just yet because it sounds as though some of them contain threats and might come in handy in case you decided to file for a restraining order.

Can you get an injunction over there? I'm in the UK and am currently saving all contact from my ex in case I need to file an injunction to stop him harassing me. I'd save them but not listen to them

Sending you support and hugs. I have been there with my alcoholic sister. I found that the best thing for me was to ignore her calls, and later on, block her number. It kept ME sane. It is so difficult, I know...sending you hugs.

Keep the messages, proof of his instability. I would not respond, just let him continue his tirade, he will eventually run out of steam. They have the mindset of a 3 year old, can't focus on anything for long.
