As it’s been 4 and a half years since I was on patrol or drove a police car, and 3 years since I retired. For 3 years I’ve struggled massively with “closure” in my therapy sessions due to how my career ended. Due to this and at the request of my therapist, I put myself in a

I don’t get involved with politics, or current affairs. But won’t hold my tongue when it comes to mental health or my views. I feel you’ve crossed the line of being biased and not neutral with your comments. Sorry @MindCharity bit I’ve lost faith in you.

A lot of you know I’m struggling with my battle with PTSD, as part of my therapy I’ve been asked to express myself openly. If you don’t like it I’m sorry but I’m not hiding away or being afraid. ✌️ peace.

So over the last month milly has noticed a large brown mark on the rear of my back changing size and colour. The GP wasn’t happy, neither was the specialist skin Doctor so it was removed asap to be sent off for a biopsy. Moral of the story is, don’t wait, get something checked

Due to the recent headline news, please try not to let your faith in the police be altered. Know your rights when stopped by a plain clothed officer! Stay strong and believe for a better tomorrow. The man was evil and doesn’t reflect the great work of so many! peace and love xx

Thought of the day, never seek approval or friendship of people who only want to drag you down. You’re the only one in charge or you’re destiny! It’s their loss if they don’t want you in their lives. People should love you for being you!. faults and all!.

Just because people don’t look poorly, it’s doesn’t mean their not. They shouldn’t have to hide away from society, and you should try to live a normal life. Ask yourself what you would do in that situation?and have you been understanding about it?. or have you just judged???.
