Will have to have a look for that Dan Brown book – I haven’t heard of it !
Love the tea cup, saucer and side plate – so delicate.
Thank goodness the rain has stopped – I have had washing out since Sunday but every time I remember it is out there, it has just rained / late in the afternoon and dew has fallen and I can’t bring it in !!
Have the best day !

Hey, Minsmash,

BTW, did you get the notification I sent you about nominating you for the Liebster award? Anyway, will be anxious to hear why you chose not to take anti-depressants. Don’t know which blog I’m posting from right now, but you might be interested in “depressionsgift” which is the blog devoted to the discussion of depression.

Being betrayed is an awful experience but I’m glad you’re blogging about it. It takes some of the sting out of it.

(Finally, for some strange reason I’m getting multiple notifications via my e-mail about the same posts. Just started happening last week. Anyone else have this problem?)

Hi Jess – yes the incident happened in May 2012. I started my blog in September 2012. So a lot was pre-blog but also some during blog! Blogging has been a great outlet, as well as learning photography! It hasn’t always been easy though – particularly during hard and/or dark times but I am so glad I started this blog as it has kind of been like self-therapy! xo

Thanks Em. It was a combination of work stress and injustice and mis-treatment that led to what happened to me. I’m nearly out the other side but I will be a different me on the other side. You’ll hear about that in Part 4 xo

Thanks Grace – I never planned to share this but there is something about the blogging world that makes you want to share this stuff!! Lol I also hope that anyone else out there that has been through something similar – who might happen to read this – not feel quite so alone and hopefully inspired and hopeful that there is a way to move forward through this stuff.

Thanks Kylie – it wasn’t a pleasant experience and it has changed me but as they say – every cloud has a silver lining

Oh wow Min, it sounds like you had some really dark times back then. I’ve been trying to work out the time line and now realised this was all pre-blog. I haven’t seen that side of you in your writing until now, so it’s obviously been a really great outlet for you. So glad that you can write the story down now though. That must be a huge sense of relief, and also bring a lot of closure.

It sounds like you found the perfect outlet Mins, glad to hear it. Work stress is so frustrating, I can’t imagine what you went through. Am very happy you are nearly out the other side though! Em x

Oh, Min…what tough, tough times! As they say, it’s always darkest before the light. It’s good to share this because as you say, others shouldn’t have to go through similar nasty circumstances.
Glad that you had the support to ease back into life again.
