Congratulations, luvdrunk, on taking the first step toward reclaiming your life. Give time time now, and get comfortable in your own skin. You have work to do, and I promise you it will be worthwhile.
I had to obtain restraining orders/orders of protection in THREE states. It was not impossible but it was challenging and I had to be very strong and state the facts (no drama, no story), along with all the supporting evidence, three times, to three separate legal systems, and I had to answer many questions which kept the situation "alive", but I accomplished the legal goal. There is much more to the story but I do not discuss it because it is in the past and that is where it will stay. I cannot say for certain that it is over, I will never let my guard down; but I can say that it seems to have stopped.
Please read deBecker's book. He has a website also, but the book is invaluable, not just for your situation, but for life. There are many professionals and experts who will assist you on your journey. Again, the mindset you are dealing with is not one that is understandable or reasonable.
As for your possessions, I'm going to say something that you might not want to hear: They are just things and can be replaced. Your life cannot.
