Well this is a tough situation to be in isn't it!? Social media really doesn't help in situations your family is involved in! How are you meant to cope with 'normal' day to day life when your address has been leaked to people who want things done to your family member without constantly worrying about what's gonna happen next?
I don't even know how I feel right now, I think he's an absolute idiot but he's also my brother!? Is this a pointless post? I don't even know!?

Sorry to see you here too!
He seems okay, hasn't said much to us though but that's his choice, we've said we're here if he wants to talk about anything. As for me an dad we're not the best right now but we're okay I guess..... it's not a fun ride at all is it!

This is part of how they ended up here by not talking but living in this secret
It is an enormous shock for both him and yourself and family
This is a long journey and so much uncertainty
Please reach out to the helpline
Has your brother reached out to a therapist? He can also call the helpline, they are really supportive and non judgemental
I made the first call and spent most of it in tears but they really did help
My son also phoned them and completed the online modules, they also recommended a therapist who specializes in this crime and I know this was so helpful for him
Please be kind to yourself and know that the support you are giving to him is so so important
My daughters relationship with her brother is so close since this, she knows he is a good person despite his offending he is more than this,

I called the helpline yesterday and they told me about this website, they helped massively just by sitting and listening and not judging!
he's started to reach out for help on his own accord without us mentioning anything but he deals with his emotions very well too!
I had a massive breakdown yesterday to the point I had to leave work early which is how I've ended up here but I feel stronger today. It's the uncertainty of everything and the shock of everything all at once and all the emotions I think just got the better of me! We're slowly figuring out and getting help but it's obviously gonna be a very long process for all of us! Xx

Hello lovely, sorry I've only just seen this! We're all doing better I think, with all the hate from locals online we agreed that he shouldn't go out alone for a bit, yesterday/ today has been the first time he's been out in a week and a half as we had a concert preplanned, now on our way back. He has slightly learning difficulties also (not sure if I mentioned before) but I'm now torn between him going back to his normal routine of walking the dog round the field or waiting a bit longer? Hope your doing okay! Xx
Hi MixedEmotions
Glad to hear your all doing ok, it must ha e been nice to get out for a bit x
It will always be a bit daunting on his first time out without you in regards to him walking the dog, how does he feel in himself? have you had any issues with people in person or has it just been the good old keyboard warriors that have nothing better to do ?
If no issues in person then if that is what he did before all this and he wants to go out then he should even if it is a small walk ot will let him build back some confidence

Yeah it was nice, minimal stresses for once!
He seems okay tbh almost as if nothings happened, I'll have a chat with him tomorrow when I'm back from work as we're all in bed now. Not had any problems other than the typical social media lot that have sod all else to do!

Glad you are all ok x
Social media is awful but remember they are words from keyboard warriors that do not have a clue what it is like to walk in our shoes
Unless you are here no one can understand
