โFalling for a scam wasn't something I ever expected. But it happens. The shame sits heavy, and it isn't yours to carry by yourself. Tell one person you trust, even just one. Reporting to the police is a start, but getting past it is slow. You'll come through. I'm still working on it.โ
โFor anyone new to this: Two years ago, that was me. It was crypto investment that vanished and I couldn't see past it. This morning I sang in the car. It comes back slowly, like feeling in your fingers after the cold.โ
โIf you've just found this place, eighteen months ago I was exactly where you are. A call from the bank that was not the bank. That was my life. Last month I had people round for dinner. Things come back, slower than you'd like but they do. One day at a time.โ
โTo whoever needs this: I was in the same place this time last year. It was a romance scam, 30k gone and I couldn't see past it. My kids say I'm back. Things come back, slower than you'd like but they do. Praying for you.โ
