#neglect — Public Fediverse posts

Ah, the Boy Scouts—a beacon of #neglect wrapped in a new brand name! 🔥🔥 Apparently, the organization thinks a bit of #rebranding magic will solve decades of negligence. 🤦‍♂️ But fear not, they've got a meeting in Dallas where they’ll surely fix everything with some #PowerPoint slides and corporate jargon. 🎩✨

A quotation from Eleanor Roosevelt

To me, the democratic system represents man’s best and brightest hope of self-fulfillment, of a life rich in promise and free from fear; the one hope, perhaps, for the complete development of the whole man. But I know, and learn more clearly every day, that we cannot keep our system strong and free by neglect, by taking it for granted, by giving it our second-best attention. We must be prepared, like the suitor in The Merchant of Venice — and, I might point out, the successful suitor — to give and hazard all we have.

Eleanor Roosevelt (1884–1962) First Lady of the US (1933–1945), politician, diplomat, activist
Essay (1961-04), “What Has Happened to the American Dream?” Atlantic Monthly

A quotation from Goethe

And I have again observed, my dear friend, in this trifling affair, that misunderstandings and neglect occasion more mischief in the world than even malice and wickedness. At all events, the two latter are of less frequent occurrence.
 
[Und ich habe, mein Lieber, wieder bei diesem kleinen Geschäft gefunden, dass Missverständnisse und Trägheit vielleicht mehr Irrungen in der Welt machen als List und Bosheit. Wenigstens sind die beiden letzteren gewiss seltener.]

Johann Wolfgang von Goethe (1749-1832) German poet, statesman, scientist

Does #Melbourne #Australia have no community?

Seriously, the biggest problem I have in escaping #abuse #neglect #CoerciveControl is finding a volunteer to help with admin and a safe, quiet place to live. Every time I ask, NOBODY knows ANYONE. I am too sick to live with randoms & need recommendations, but nobody knows anyone?

In a city of 6 million??

I’m really unwell. Please 🔄SHARE my pinned crowdfund &💸 GIVE if you can. Share on all social media platforms you’re on. I can’t get to many.l 😞

It’s not looking great. Doctor confirmed I’m slowly dying in this environment. I don’t even get regular food.
I need to escape ASAP. PLEASE HELP 🙏

https://www.chuffed.org/project/161937-help-anna-escape

From Crowdfund:

🚨EMERGENCY🚨

Anna, an #Australian woman battling severe #MyalgicEncephalomyelitis (#ME) for over 20 years, is trapped in a toxic home with #abusive family members. She has multiple chronic illnesses too

#Bedbound & forced to stay in a dark room, she is very vulnerable and that is taken advantage of. She is not allowed to access #disabilityaids or supportworkers & needs approval for all mailed items including food, which may be binned or sold regardless. She faces deliberate exposure to sensory overload, days without food, constant yelling, gaslighting, called every insult, stolen belongings - the list is endless.

She has been infected with #COVID 3 times in 15 months due to unmasked family members, who have ignored the pleas of her doctor to be Covid conscious. She now has #LongCovid as well.

This is compounded by #endometriosis, #hypothyroidism, #POTS, #chronicpain, & more. She was forced to decline surgery to remove endometriosis after her family denied her after care & would not allow support workers to assist. One of many examples where medical care was denied by #CoersiveControl

As a result of all this her health is deteriorating rapidly. She is living in "survival mode” but can’t for much longer.

There are no steady rules, just excuses for her #abuse.

** Her doctor fears staying in this environment will kill her.**

Australia's #healthcare, #disability, & #domesticviolence systems have failed her catastrophically, This systemic #neglect has created a #lifethreatening crisis – & for Anna, it's already too late to wait.

**Anna's Critical Needs***

- **Safe #Housing ASAP:** Anna desperately needs a quiet #room in a COVID-conscious (masking) home in #Melbourne. She can pay rent $250 per week,funded meals & limited care hours; long-term help may qualify for Carer's Allowance. You’re not required to be a carer but can choose to.

- **Secure Relocation:** Ambulance transport to reduce infection risks & reduce further stress & worsening of symptoms.

- **Expert Advocacy:** A #disabilityadvocate for complex cases to navigate the system with her. She can’t do this alone.

- **Communication Help (#Australia, preferably #Victoria):** Someone to handle phone tasks – all info provided. She can’t use the #phone due to the severity of her illness.

And they keep passing the buck"

### Urgent Appeal: Help Anna #Escape #Abuse – Time is Running Out!

🚨EMERGENCY: Anna's Life Hangs in the Balance – Act NOW to Rescue Her from #Abuse and #Neglect!

Anna, an Australian woman battling severe #MyalgicEncephalomyelitis (#ME) for over 20 years, is trapped in a toxic home with abusive family members. Bedbound and forced to stay in a dark room, she is vulnerable and that vulnerability is taken advantage of. She is not allowed access to #disability aids or workers and needs approval for all mailed items including food, which may be binned or sold regardless. There are no steady rules, just excuses for her abuse. She faces deliberate exposure to sensory overload, days without food, constant yelling, stolen belongings, and three #COVID infections in 15 months due to unmasked family members. She now has #LongCovid as well. Compounded by #endometriosis, #hypothyroidism, #POTS, #chronicpain, and more - her health is deteriorating rapidly.

** Her doctor fears that staying in this environment will kill her.**

#Australia's #healthcare, #disability, and #domesticviolence systems have failed her catastrophically,. This systemic neglect has created a life-threatening crisis – and for Anna, it's already too late to wait.

**Anna's Critical Needs – Your Support Can Save Her:**

- **Safe Housing ASAP:** Anna desperately needs a quiet room in a COVID-conscious (masking) home in #Melbourne. She can pay rent $250 per week, with funded meals and limited care hours; long-term help may qualify for Carer's Allowance. She has indicated she may need incidental help.

- **Secure Relocation:** Specialized transport to reduce infection risks and suit her ME. Funds needed for moving costs and aids until #NDIS access.

- **Expert Advocacy:** A #DisabilityAdvocate for complex cases to navigate the system with her. Even a friend just willing to help. She can’t do this alone.

- **Communication Aid (#Australia, preferably #Victoria):** Someone to handle phone tasks – all documents provided. Brain injury has made phone use impossible.

-**This is a Shameful Failure – But You Can Help** In a resource-rich nation, no one should rot in abuse while services ignore them. Don't let Anna become a statistic.

"Loneliness does not come from having no people about one, but from being unable to communicate the things that seem important to oneself, or from holding certain views which others find inadmissible." ~ Carl Gustav Jung #ClusterBfamily #NarcAbuse #loneliness #SiblingAbuse #TruthTeller #neglect #InvisibleChild #ScapegoatSurvivor

In a little less than a month I will have started #SabiLewSounds 10 yrs ago

I still have a tiny reach

A bulk of that is because of my #CPTSD from childhood emotional #neglect

I can't self advocate without severe #suicidality even for things that aren't life and death like needing #MutualAid and #DirectAid

I've said this again and again yet

I am ignored - only @Toadlyturtle makes spoons to advocate for me everyday without being asked

Something which everyone knows, intellectually, but which is frequently difficult to put into practice, because the expectations are reinforced multiple different ways for your entire path to adulthood:

You are allowed to dislike your relatives.

You don't have to be nice to someone who doesn't treat you well, no matter how much other family members push you to ignore their disrespect, neglect, or abuse. Tell them they're full of shit. Tell them you're not going to listen to their crap. Walk away.

You don't have to politely listen to someone saying things that denigrate you, or deny you agency, or "other" you, or gaslight you, no matter who tries to make you remain silent. Argue with them. Or tell them they're wrong, and why, and walk away. Loudly point out to everyone else just how offensive their stated beliefs are, even if others want you to just "let it go so as not to start an argument".

You don't have to provide favours to people who just want to use you. Feel free to say "no" to requests, without arguing or justifying your decision. You just say "No" or "That doesn't work for me", and change the subject or walk away.

This is really difficult to process and put into action. It may take decades to become fully comfortable with it. But it is incredibly freeing once you get there.

Did I attend a family dinner thing recently? Why do you ask?

PLEASE HELP ME ESCAPE!

Please #boost and share to other platforms.🙏I don’t have energy left (see below).

Seems desperate enough to go to the media for help. Yes, the trapped woman in the articles below is me.

👉2024
https://www.thecanary.co/global/world-analysis/2024/05/03/me-cfs-anna-australia/

Now things are worse, I’m much sicker, being neglected and will die without a safe stable #home. Doctor’s words.

If not mentioned in the article, my father is a diagnosed #narcissist with #psychopathic & #antisocial tendencies by a #psychiatrist. He urged me get away from my father asap because he is not a ‘safe person’ & neither are the other family members who lured me back through the promise of help.They didn’t help they made me progressively worse to the point of almost incapacitation at stage of #illness.

👉A year later:
https://www.thecanary.co/global/world-analysis/2025/04/01/anna-severe-me-cfs/

I’ve tried every level of government, every service and they simply won’t help.

- #Housing!
Ask people in real life if they have somewhere for me to go. Could they take me in (I can pay small board $250)? A lot people have ‘big house, not enough money’ problem. I can help!

- #advocacy. I desperately need help. Even basic daily admin.

I would be incredibly grateful for any help beyond words.🙏

Thank you for reading.

Children of parents who have a mood or personality disorder, marital discord, are addicted, or overwhelmed with stress can feel lonely, invisible, and unlovable. It happens even when a parent is involved but not emotionally attuned to their children.

We flatter those we scarcely know,
We please the fleeting guest,
And deal full many a thoughtless blow
