I can definitely say that today has been an emotional rollercoaster of emotions.

In my previous blog I had explained my whole life story, telling you everything down to the point. So you’d want to read that before reading this otherwise it wouldn’t make sense.

I woke up this morning, in such a good mood, I had decided to be productive thanks to my cousin, you know who you are babes xoxo, anyways, we sorted things out to get a PIP application form, we phoned the Drasacts head office (a service that helps with sexual abuse), I had previously been referred to them months ago. However, today I had found out that this whole 4 months of waiting to be seen to be able to have counselling (it’s a 6 month waiting list, stupid I know) but this whole time I had NOT been on the counselling list, like what? This is just getting pathetic now. So we had to argue with them, to see if I could be seen any sooner because of my mental state at the moment, can I? No, of course I can’t, typical, I don’t know when I’m going to be seen but we move.

After this, I contacted the woman I had been talking to that works with DRASACS, she isn’t a councillor but she offered any type of support, so I told her how my therapist discharged me after my first session as I cannot be on two services at once even though I haven’t been seen by DRASACS yet, and I told her how I feel like the police are pushing me aside and doing nothing about my case. She then, phoned the police, complained a little, after this, the police woman phoned me, and told me that there were still NO updates, really? After 4 months? No at all updates, pathetic. Asked me for said person’s address after telling them their address multiple times, I managed to get a contact number for him, and passed it over to the police. He is going to the station to be arrested, interviewed and be put on bail.

So after 4 months of waiting, they basically left it to me to get all his details and all that had to do is arrest him, I thought they were the police? I might as well become a police woman now at this point, me and my detective work 💪🏽.

On a higher note, none of this wouldn’t have happened if it wasn’t for my cousin, Thankyou so much for being you and helping me with everything I am going through. ❤

Thankyou for reading,

  2. It’s good to have supportive people in your life. We all have those times when we “just don’t have it” to advocate for ourselves any more, so that’s why people like your cousin are heroes, in my opinion.

    You’re doing hard work. Give yourself a lot of care and compassion!
