2 years ago today, I received the subject data access request of over 110 pages of emails used to harass, attack me & bully me for my campaigning work, being feminist, being raped as a kid & growing up on council estate.

Just a reminder that I still have all that evidence.

I know you all still watch my social media. And I honestly hope it stings to watch.

Here’s some extracts from the emails:

‘She is clearly emotionally unstable’

‘She has 9000 followers so I don’t want her finding out it was me who did this because of the fall out’

‘She disclosed she was raped as a child’

‘She frankly brings psychologists into disrepute’

‘Her description of her own experiences as a child are clearly meant to shock people aren’t they?’

‘She has a licence to hold sensitive research data but I dont think this is appropriate given her mental health and her disclosures of her childhood’

‘The disclosure of her own childhood raises questions about whether she is stable enough to be in the field of forensic psychology’

‘I found on her Facebook that she was also the victim of a stranger sex attack last year and refused to report to police’

‘I am just letting you know that this self-appointed CSE victim and radical feminist is talking publicly about CSE films and you might want to take action against her’

‘Just an update, she is still talking about CSE films and you might want to do something about it’

Months of targeted harassment using my childhood against me as a psychologist - to argue that I shouldn’t be allowed to complete my PhD or register as a psychologist because of my background and because of my campaigning work.

Anyway, I passed my PhD, I did well, I worked hard.

I took action against the academics and psychologists who did this and at first, my complaint was written off as malicious and as ‘a conspiracy theory’ - that was, until I got the emails using SDAR. Then I was able to prove what I knew all along.

Then I appealed and won.

Since then, those psychologists and academics are super quiet. Not heard a peep from any of them. Some of which owe me an apology for not believing me and for not supporting me as a victim of harassment.

Some however, need to just fuck all the way off.

I worked so hard to get to do a PhD, from being a teen mum from rape, a high school drop out, a kid with a drink and drug problem.

At 25 I got offered a PhD place and I was blown away. I thought I could move on from my past, only to have it all thrown in my face by psychologists

This is why I’m so firmly strength based in my work. I was under the impression that I could use my talents and strengths to get out of poverty and exploitation - but once I got up there to do my PhD, my poverty and exploitation was used against me to claim I wasn’t good enough

The fact that I spoke openly about who I was and how far I felt I had come as a young woman, was not looked kindly upon at all. I was too open, too honest, too raw, too working class, too angry, too passionate, too feminist, too damaged, too sweary, too critical.

I still have masses of academics and psychologists who are extremely uncomfortable with my work, my life, my communication and my followers.

But I honestly couldn’t give a shit.

I know I have made a difference to tens of thousands of lives and that’s my purpose here.
