During a wide ranging conversation about my mental health, I was asked a fateful question by somebody who was carrying out a disability assessment.
I didn't know what to do with that, so the other person who was in the room at the time of the assessment said that they considered me to have been a victim of a crime. And then she connected me with R, who works for a victim support service.
Coming up on a year working together, and I am grateful, even as I am scared.
