Hey

I feel everything you've written and I didn't want to just read and not reply to you. I also have stepped away my little one goes to nursery and I hurry up pick up and go I've tried not making any friends because I'm too scared of anything coming out. My oh got sentenced a month ago and a week later was in media luckily so far nothing on fb or any other paper but I'm so scared of everyone finding out I feel like they can tell without being told

I really do sympathise with you. The hardest part of limbo for me was distancing myself from everyone and almost putting my life on hold (apart from Uni which is not in my city anyway). I began to hardly respond to people and become almost a hermit. I really do hope you get the result you're hoping for. Big hugs xx

Definitely know how you feel.

Just one month before the knock, I was finally brave enough to come out publicly about my own trauma as a survivor of childhood sexual abuse. I was planning to do something to help others and to put a light on this and, hopefully, even fight to reopen my case and make my abuser pay for what he did to 6 year old me for years.

I now feel like a total hypocrite. And I hate that another man took my voice yet again and now maybe forever.
