    Ah, @Past User , of course, so silly of me, it's understandable that the police would be asking those types of questions, and wondering how you're going to answer them is certainly nerve-wracking for you :( Even when you have a plan and know what you need right now, being able to talk bluntly and openly with random police officers about such an intimate aspect of your life is pretty terrifying, right?

    Regardless, you are free to take as much time as you need to talk to them and if you feel uncomfortable, 9 times out of 10, it's better to bluntly say this to them. You deserve to feel safe and comforted at a time like this, that should always be the priority!!

    Now, in terms of their questions, do you feel like you could answer them, or would you prefer not to?

    Huge big hugs for you of course <3

    To bring some softness, here is a picture of my favourite toy I have (don't have an actual picture of my one, but here is the generic shop photo instead!!)

    Oh no @Past User. How safe are you feeling today? You have been really brave in sharing that with us. Would you like to talk to us more about last night and any triggers? <3

    Glad to hear you are feeling safer and not suicidal today @Past User. It sounds really difficult that you are feeling very depressed though. We are here for you if you would like to talk to us about this or if there's anything else we can do that might be helpful <3

    Not a bother at all <3 Hearing from you is very important @Past User !

    It's no wonder this whole process and experience has triggered such a dip in your mental health, it's simply far too much for any one person to balance alone and it was always going to impact you. Of course, now you're left in this painful space that nothing seems to be healing. Either way, you have my hugs also xx
