Opening up my instagram reels to decompress and... my algorithm likes it's dark humour apparently.

Passed out due to my POTS but this time I hit the back of my head on a radiator and I think I may have a bit of a concussion 😃

Processing the whole kidnapping situation and the fact neither the BTP or the Met have any record of the incident has been hard. I don't feel safe travelling in London now because of them. But I'll manage. With time I'll deal with the trauma of it all & find ways to live with it.

I've been thinking a lot about how to navigate my distrust in the police. How do I channel it into something positive? How do I learn from the trauma and feel safer when I interact with the police in the future? I'll work it out.

Trying to teach myself bodily autonomy at the age of 26 because it's become apparent that I have no idea what normal boundaries are for my own body 🫤

"A drag path etched in the surface as evidence I left there on purpose" and it's all the evidence of the crime that happened to me 3 months ago because although I don't currently want the police involved I won't be silent.

it's unfair how people who traumatize you get to move on and progress with their life so casually and carefree while you're healing and relearning all the basics just to feel human again..

I have no idea what i'm doing tbh every couple weeks I just try something new and hope it helps deal with all the feelings and memories. It would also help if I could ever get through to the victim services phone line.

I hate the UK medical system because it’s not funded on prevention, they always wait for things to get worse, a few avoidable deaths, outrage form the public and demand to action, slow response and then add a bandaid. I’m fed up of it

After 5 months they're actually going to investigate my complaint!!!!! I'd love to take this moment to thank DBT for teaching me how to pause and think before taking action, how to stick to my values and be assertive! Lets fucking goooo!!

We need fully funded hospice care before anyone talks about assisted dying.

So they've been able to identify one of the two officers who picked me up the night in question. Back in December it was like they had vanished from existence but they hadn't. The evidence was just waiting to be found.

Another day of trying to come to terms with my trauma, another day thinking I really ought to be friends with someone who writes soaps because I have storylines for days and they all stem from my actual life experiences.

Step 1 of healing was accepting that the trauma existed. Step 2 has been realising all the actions I've taken that were subconsciously because of the trauma. Step 3 will hopefully be building my trust and sense of safety back up ❤️‍🩹

Today I have launched the 2026 Victims' Survey. Every victim’s experience matters and I want to hear from you. Whether you reported the crime or not, this is your chance to help drive change by sharing your insight. Read more and take the survey here:🔗victimscommissioner.org.uk/news/victims-c…

I'm really out here asking myself "have I been through a lot more violence than most people or am I just worse at dealing with it than everybody else?" and then I have to check myself because there probably isn't a "normal amount" of violence I'm just deluded.
