From people who came through it
“Hi, you. I was in the same place nearly four years ago. Back then it was mugged walking home. These days I mostly feel like me. Hang on.”
Diego Oi · been through victims of crime“It happened. It wasn't your fault. It's going to be hard for a while. You'll jump at noises and check the locks obsessively. That's normal. But it won't always be this loud in your head. Find one person who will listen without trying to fix it. And take the bus with a friend if you can. You will feel safe again. It just takes time.”
Trang from Da Nang F · been through victims of crime“Hi, you. In 2022 I was exactly where you are. The trial, every single day. This year I did a 5k, slowly.”
Gary from Derby F · been through victims of crime“If you're just starting this, the first thing I'd say is tell someone. I kept quiet for weeks and it made everything worse in my head. The trial is scary but you don't have to sit there alone. Get the police report early, ask about victim services even if it feels like a hassle. Some days you'll feel fine and then a door slams and you're back. That's not you failing. I still have bad nights but they're less. Start with small things, like a housing application or one yoga video. It's okay if that's all you can do that day.”
