Note sull'episodio

In the final episode of Season 1 of The Me I’m Becoming, we tackle the painful reality of what happens when you finally build the courage to ask for help - only to be met with judgment, scrutiny, or hostility. Reflecting on a two-year social media hiatus, I open up about the devastating backlash I faced after escaping abuse and sharing my GoFundMe, including the trauma of online hate groups and stalking. We also break down the hypocrisy of "R U OK? Day" culture, sharing a deeply personal story of being interrogated and shamed by a university support service while on the brink of homelessness. This episode unpacks the psychological toll of being rejected by support systems and offers a powerful message of validation for victim-survivors.
