Interesting article - didn't realise how many of the symptoms I've been experiencing and still continue to experience 8 months on from receiving an NFA after being falsely accused.

This sort of info is ALWAYS really helpful in a group such as this. Thank you so much for finding and posting it

I also wanted to share this as I found them less judgmental than the Samaritans that seemed to be fishing as to whether i thought OH was guilty. It's a christian helpline and they seem kind genuine and helpful.

I used to ring the Samaritans in the 1980's and they made me feel worse with the funereal tone they would answer in..... apart from one woman. She was fab......


Ere! Don't forget to post these links on PAFAA forums too

Will do they are really good. Also have an appointment with a free counselling service next week but won't mention them as I don't believe anybody is local to me on here.
Will suggest anybody whos worried about having false allegations on their medical records seeks counselling through local charities or their employers/union. Struggled for eight months and it really isn't worth it.

So Very Much On My Own

I've been reading your pages for a few weeks now and they have been helpful, I consider myself fairly strong but find the loneliness quite unbearable at times especially as I now have only a handful of friends and literly no family who are there to help me through this terrible time.....

It is a very isolating experience with a lot of stigma and shame. Even when you're innocent, the fact hat someone could accuse you and the paranoia of what are people thinking of you can be debilitating. That's just as the mother of someone falsely accused, so it's hard to fathom the pain of those who are falsely accused.

People here will understand what you are going through DantesG. Things can get better. However strong you are this sort of stuff brings you to your knees.

Dantes, maybe start a thread so that members can come in to support you from there? Also, if you support others you will find much needed support coming back for you tenfold.

Hold on in there.
