Thank you everybody it's good to hear I'm not alone with this decision :hug:

Yes I believe he had a personal bias. The case has been closed now they dropped all charges

I don't have much to do with my family, some of them I don't at all but the ones I do occasional see I've decided I'm cutting them off now. They're unhealthy, they gossip and tell lies about me and criticise me and I'm sick of it. I also feel like they play a game where they can behave in a bad...

Thank you everybody. Just an update all charges against him were dropped by the police

I've left an abusive on/off relationship a few months ago. Cut the story short it's all ended up in him being arrested for harassment and assault against me. What makes me angry about everything is I was diagnosed with ptsd approx a year ago and over a year ago I finally got into employment...

Trauma - that's true, I didn't think of it like that

Trauma - I'm not sure why memories and opening up about these things triggers panic attacks (then continuous panic attacks afterwards). A similar thing happened to me when I told my therapist

Namenotdiagnosis - is there anybody in work you can tell briefly about this? (Without explaining what happened)

Starlite - you're better off without your mother and thankfully your aunt has been there for you. Just remember that even though your mum turned her back on you and put him 1st, its her who's going to miss out more than you. She's lost an important person in her life - for an abuser. Will you...

WillyKat - I'm really glad to hear you found telling other liberating. How has therapy worked for you since? I do need to buy more self help books relating to all of this, the only type of books I've read are child abuse biopgraphies and one self help book about having a narcisstic mother, which...

Starlite - sorry to hear that you went through that its terrible. Does your aunt support you with it?

This hasn't taken away the thoughts and feelings towards it like self blame and guilt but I feel more liberated and that I can talk about being a rape victim in person (althought I can't talk about the event still). I've told my best friend I was raped - they said it explains so much and I'm...

Namenotdiagnosis - there's also that thing where they might be good at their job but for them deep down its just a profession. I witnessed many support workers and people who ran or was part of the management in charities who didn't give a crap about their clients and was open in the offices how...

Lucycat - of course privaledged people still get abused but I'm talking about privaledged people with no experiences of abuse. They maybe good at their job and be able to help, but as I said you know deep down they've never been through it and been in your shoes

Namenotdiagnosis - let me know how it goes, I could imagine its going to be very hard

bell - you're right in one sense, but in another one job was overworking and constantly criticising my hardwork and another had a psycho bully in it. I think mental health over money and with a legit reason to leave constructively does give a person rights to claim benefits and get some kind of...

Namenotdiagnosis - do you think you're ready to do that?

Thanks for your replies everybody :) I believe I've got dissociative traits but not DID. I do have memory blocks, believe my dreams actually happened at times, I can have a slightly different opinion about the same thing depending who I'm around and I have been told twice my personality changes...

The test scored high, even though I thought my answers were going to score low. I thought DID was somebody who had different personalities and couldn't remember doing certain things when another personality was active? I only took this test because I read a few times people with Complex Post...

Brokensoul88 - thank you, its not easy though I'm terrified of going back but I have to do this if I want to improve my life

I feel lucky to have the life I've got now. I also feel angry because I feel stuck in rubbish jobs and I want a degree. I feel distrustful towards people and I feel like I'm safer if I avoid them but I also feel isolated because I avoid them. I feel anxious and on edge about responsibilities...

I avoid smoking cannabis now because it has triggered psychosis in the past

This problem needs to be addressed as soon as before they lose their purpose and original mission. How to go about this I'm not sure how to advise you yet, I believe you need more information and to speak to the Human Resources about your concerns 1st of all

There seems to be a pattern here with these supermarkets then. I told my therapist about my jobs and she said they're the kind of jobs that attract incompetent people with no qualifications (she wasn't meaning all in those jobs, but I get what she was saying). I think supermarket jobs are a...

Namenotdiagnosis - when you were growing up was being hard or tough looked up to?
