I got called a troll today (refugees will get benefits)
I’m spending significant amount of time on Facebook groups dedicated to help refugees. I will continue my observation of British public and will keep posting what I’ve noticed. Today I saw a post from a lady who was upset because ‘her’ refugees changed their mind on the last minute and said they’re not coming. She…

I think the news are set up
Do you think I’m getting psychotic for thinking that? I especially mean here the trip of Polish Prime Minister Mateusz Morawiecki and some other people to Kiev. It didn’t make much sense to me that they went there, there was nothing that they could do by going and were only exposing themselves to danger. But…

Another thing I don’t understand (£350)
The British are currently arguing about the £350 that the government gives towards hosting Ukrainian refugees. Some of them are calling the government ‘shitty’ and claim it’s not enough. Obviously it’s not much, if they rent the room out privately they would get twice as much for two people (depending on the location) and some…

I had a bath
And I feel a bit better. I am hoping that I will be able to sleep tonight without olanzapine again. I do not feel too triggered, thank god, but I am not totally calm either. I finally realised I cannot go to Poland and also, that possibly I need my sick note extended. It’s a…

I want to be the breave one!
I still feel really panicky. It seems to me like two hostels bookings not working out is a sign that I should stay (notification) but at the same time I feel like I really want to go, to help my country and our neighbours who are stuck there. I know I won’t be able to…

Feeling panicky about my trip tomorrow
A few hours ago I received email through Booking.com that my hostel reservation has been cancelled. The property called me a few minutes later to confirm and stated that they had a large group of students coming and are overbooked. That never happened to me before. I started thinking, whether, possibly they were told by…

Weird…
Some British are really complaining on Facebook that they can’t find a refugee, their messages don’t get answered and stuff. ‘I contacted 40 people and nothing’ one said. Why don’t you just move on in hope that at least the refugees have enough choices? In another post Polish lady who is helping an Ukrainian mum…

Czego ja dożyłam?
The title of this post is in Polish. I don’t even know an expression that I could use to explain how I feel. I guess disbelief is probably the best word here. I read statement from NASA yesterday that they will still be working together with Russia and I think this is absolutely disgusting. Is…

British supremacy
https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/science-environment-60708712 I read the above article today and was absolutely shocked! It’s about black chemistry professor who had his every single application for funding or research turned down! I could not believe that. I guess, because I’ve never seen British person being rude to someone who is black, I assumed racism doesn’t really exist. I…
