    Ok so I’m here and basically I can’t see through the window I was hoping to see through as it’s easier to see at dark as my mum left a light on (surprising how it’s still on after all these years.

    I’ve looks through the post box but don’t see any change

    But this is what it looks like. Delete if not allowed (There was a window and door) I feel if it was a squatter they wouldn’t of boarded up the door aswell. I don’t know it’s just odd. Maybe it was the police or council considering they did alert my sister about the safety of the house

    When I was in car and going a bit fast I didn’t see it fully and thought it was just the window so now I’ve seen it. It kinda looks more like something the counsel or police would do??

    I have knocked on it round the front and no one’s answered
    I’m way to scared to ask the neighbours as I don’t want to be associated with that house
    But when I was there they didn’t speak English anyways

    Ah yeah I would agree @Siena - it looks like quite a big job for someone to do so I'd also say it looks like it might have been the council or the police. Maybe one of the neighbours reported that the house looked quite unsafe and could be broken in to, so someone came round to board up the front. Maybe you could try giving the council a ring about it? :)

    Struggling now dad's left. Got to keep myself safe from the thoughts tho

    You're doing so well Chloe, we are so proud of you for fighting those thoughts <3

    Is there anything you can do to distract yourself today, like call a friend, watch your favourite shows, or go out to a public place for a wander? You can do this <3

    Back at home and causing big arguments. Mostly sisters and me saying about the money side of it and literally so much wasted money going down the drain. But yeah I can’t be bothered to argue anymore so I’m going back out

    Hi @Siena It sounds like theirs a lot going on at home with the arguments at the minute with your sisters.They can be really draining so you have done the right thing but taking urself away from everything.<3 Thinking of you and hope you get todo something nice for yourself today. Take care of yourself <3

    @joshy123 hey, i've just seen ur post n i can only imagine the emotional toll that must of took on u bringing back those memories. Don't feel bad about spending ur day in bed because its equally important to have days where we do nothing as well as days where we do lots. If there's any particular music u like to listen to it can rrly help when ur emotional, i also find drawing can help me when im sad (even tho im terrible at drawing haha). Sending love <3

    @joshy123 does she do it because she wants you to get sleep or is it because of neglect?

    “And when they look at you, they won't see everything you've been through. They won't see the **** that turned to scars that began to fade with time. They won't see the heartbreaking things that shook up and changed your entire world. They won't know how many tears you cried or even what it was you were crying about. They won't see how strong you had to be because you had no other choice. What they will see though is how compassionate you are because you experienced pain. What they will see is how kind you are because you experienced how cruel the world is. What they will see is how good you are because you've seen how bad things or people can be. The difference between you and your experiences are who you choose to be, despite everything that could have turned you cold and unkind.You are the good the world needs and the best of us.” ~ Kirsten Corley
