I hope to live longer, but when I do leave this world, I don’t want to be remembered as a scientist or healthcare worker or fighter. I hope to be remembered as a beggar. It’s the most honorable thing a person can be during genocides.

Are there any #pwme #mecfs on PrEP out there willing to tell me what their experience has been like on it? I should probs be on it for other reasons so just wondering how it's likely to effect everything else

Afaik, the support services don't exist & if i report the copper assaulting me this is likely to happen; getting my house raided multiple times, being choked & pulling sheets off & being *forceably sectioned* why r no #pwME #pwLC talking about this??🧵 instagram.com/reel/DTLfMp-DD…
or anyone able to point me in the direction of a group/org that *ensures ur access needs are met when dealing with the police?* bc they're not even trying to meet mine & i need help asap

like even if ur mild or think there's no way the police will ever be at ur door, consider that this has happened to two #pwME reporting crimes *they are the victim of* So unless ur 100% no one is ever gonna assault or harass u, u should care about this!!!

🔗 to the gfm for ppl to share, pls reshare this!!! getting legal support she doesn't have money for is the only way to ensure this doesn't become the standard of how the police treat #pwME & my best shot of not getting further abused is by her winning! gofundme.com/f/fight-against…

ok is this just another service that doesn't exist for disabled ppl? Just like housing & dv support is? Bc neither my therapist or the one good org ik of has been able to find anything & im fucking scared at this point

& whilst I've written out a thing 4 if they do come, explaining that i have seizures & need to go lie down but it shouldn't be taken as refusal to engage, Im happy to have an interview with the appropriate support, i rlly don't trust theyll actually listen to it tbh

& when other disabled ppl who've reported police abuse have then had their house raided & multiple fake arrests, pulled out of bed when in a severe ME crash & has still got zero help despite being v public it's not making me feel v hopeful about reporting it

anyone able to advise whether a police officer pushing my wheelchair without my consent into the middle of the road whilst supposedly investigating hate crimes *im the victim of* is assault?? cause it sure as shit feels like assault

but in the 6 months of trying to contact them they've never gotten in contact. Last time i managed to speak to a person I was promised it'd only be a week, only to hear nothing. The police keep telling me it's my legal right to have support but they're not actually doing anything

To put that support in place, & are instead just pushing me to keep going ahead with things when we're all in agreement i don't have the support I'm entitled to, legally & I'm not ready & haven't been given the time to prepare that I'm entitled to.
