This is exactly why I testified at the Old Bailey in London England for 3 days to put a serial rapist away for 9 years after he broke into the house whilst I was sleeping. So he could never hurt another woman! Im one of only 7 percent who won and got a guilty verdict, 26 years ago. My anger at...
Hello Kellie Rose.
It wasn't your fault.
You trusted someone who you thought you could.
Can I suggest a book I found helpful at the time?
That was 25 /26 years ago, so it's old but still available.
It's called: Who's Afraid of the Dark? A forum of truth, support, and assurance for those...
Thank you for your post, however, it made me sad, and so depressed.
I've kept fighting and yesterday finally managed for my statement to the police to be taken.
They then asked my witness questions about what she had seen but she was only there at the end to call an ambulance.
Now the case...
So my anger has lessened to sadness.
I've been referred back to physios.
My parents are ill one has COPD. I was praying that physios could do a Zoom/ teams video call, or it would take me 2hours there and 2 hours back. Fingers crossed hope to do online treatment
I'm really embarrassed...
Thank you Joao for your words of wisdom, I'm so sorry you had to go through DV. My heart goes out to you.
Yes, one person's word against another is almost impossible to prove without cctv proof.
But I will still seek justice, for someone to be held accountable for their actions, even if it...
Yes, i pressed charges for GBH.
I was told that there was no CCTV evidence of the incident, and no witness at the time.
The downstairs neighbor lied to the police.
It was my word against hers so not enough evidence to take to court.
I am currently in the process of making a formal complaint to...
"Don't give up fighting on your behalf" Thank you sideways.
I seek justice. For a full statement to be taken by police, as no cctv.
Myself and my therapist have put in a complaint yesterday at how the case was handled.
Art is an excellent idea sideways. I can be in my garden on my crutches...
Thank you. but I refuse to be in a wheelchair.
I want to walk again without crutches, I want to ride a push bike again, and I'm gonna fight this one way or another.
Just back from the hospital where I saw a blind man with a white stick being helped, and I felt humbled.
I looked at the colors...
I was very good at channeling my anger. I used to go outside and cut the 30-foot hedge with a hedge trimmer. I used to take a wooden pallet apart with a crowbar and hammer. I harnessed my anger positivity. It hurt no one, just knacked me out.
Now my legs don't work, and I'm left fuming with...
I'm so sorry.
How do you cope?
I am back at the hospital today to have stitches out.
I have been trying to say each day gratitude for what I do have.
My arms are getting stronger when I have to pull myself up the stairs and drag my legs behind me to open the front door for food.
Housing still...
But my anger is my strength. It's my fighting spirit to keep going. For good to triumph over evil, karma. I just went in the garden on my crutches to look at the newborn tadpoles in my pond and I couldn't get up off the low seat. My right leg won't bend more than 20 percent yet. I cried with...
My downstairs neighbor ( B) broke both my legs. How do I get justice when she lied to the police and I am told you have no CCTV evidence so you have no case as no witness? I had the ambulance that my kind next door got me when I was on the floor screaming for help. The x-rays from the hospital...
I'm absolutely agreeing now.
Before I was like I've lived here for over 20 years, why should i move.?
Why should I lose my beautiful garden where I have planted cherry trees, and where my neighbours are kind.
I don't think I have any other choice now.
I'm devasted, he wins
Please bear with my spelling as I am dyslexic.
I'm trying to find advice from people who have been through this.
I already have CPTSD from another trauma 25 years ago where I put a rapist who broke into the house for 9 years at the old bailey.
24 years later I'm back with an alarm around my...
Hello
I believe it is totally related to your trauma.
I too wake up screaming in bed, then I try to go back to sleep and it happens again. ( but have no partner just a cat)
I've also woken up crawling across the floor trying to escape and screaming.
It's hardcore and very frightening.
Are you...
Hi J
I so hate the word damaged, it hurts.
I prefer to use the word broken.
But if you are broken then it can be mended
Reminds me of the song Bargain Store by Dolly Parton. Always did like her when I was a kid.
Go listen to the song - it may help.
Some lyrics Bargain Store by Dolly Parton...
How are you getting on now?
I too have just left an abusive relationship, all be it emotional and mental
Look up Narcissist abuse on U-tube. This helped me a great deal with learning the cycle of abuse.
It gave me clairty when i was blinded by love.
The similarities about them giving gifts...
Thank you.
I think I mean in an online dating sense.
I don't really want to go on a first date then have to tell them.
I would rather be rejected before like this is me if you don't like it that's ok, NEXT!
Also in REAL life when a male friend is becoming a little bit more special.
I don't...
