Picking up the phone is hard
it's bloody hard. I eventually picked up the phone to WA I wish I had done it years ago. I appologise, I rambled, I did nothing afterwards, then I started taking those first steps and phoned again and doind something to help me. One of the hardest things I've done and I go to see a WA councillor and I still feel as though I don't have the right to be there and sometimes I don't want too, because I want it all just to go away, but it doesn't. Take deep breath and phone then see what happens.
I'm really please to hear that you have been seeking support from Women's Aid and have been told about the forum. Unfortunately, Women's Aid isn’t able to respond in a lot of detail with their email service. The survivor’s forum is regularly checked by the moderator who is here to offer professional support. Combined with the wealth of knowledge and experience of all the other forum members I hope that you will be able to get some good advice and make a few new friends.
It can be very difficult when trying to vocalise the problems that you are experiencing but with time and support from the women on the forum you will be able to make that step. I hope you are able to share your experiences with the forum and see that you are not alone with your fears and anxieties.
