Was it worth it?
My blog is a form of creative self expression. I set it up around 20 months ago. Up until recently I’d often blog about workplace bullying and it was all based on my own life experience. Because of what happened during my employment tribunal claim (Home Group claiming my autism diagnosis was private and they…

Waiting to get deported (my aripiprazole adventures)
Still not sure if I spell aripiprazole correctly. What if Google won’t pick it up an no one will ever find my blog, except of those 5 people who read it regularly? I was put on aripiprazole in the hospital and felt fantastic on it for a week; what I mean by that is increased…

Collective illusion
So, I was meant to make some changes to my blogging patterns: reduce the frequency of posting and stop commenting on my thoughts, as I had the idea that I already came up with all the thoughts that I could possibly have, but then it somehow turns out new things are still appearing on my…

How bully could get others to laugh at you while still keeping their image of a professional and kind person
As you might have already noticed, I post about bulling quite regularly. You can find all the posts about it under ‘workplace bullying’ tag, although obviously it doesn’t just apply to work. My experience of a workplace bullying comes from working for a large housing association called Home Group where I really observed how the…

I’ve lost my water bill
I had a bad cold recently. Yesterday I felt like I’m getting better but today I feel worse again. I was going to find my water bill today to finally pay it, which would still be 6 days after the deadline, but with this cold it may not be possible. I wonder where it is…

Why Home Group hired an expensive lawyer to deal with my employment tribunal claim?
As you may be aware, I realised I am autistic just before starting a new job for Home Group, a large housing association with head office in Newcastle. Yes, that is all a true story, unfortunately. I initially thought I didn’t need a diagnosis because I was ok for years, but as I got bullied…

Why I contacted CEO of Home Group (again)
Ok, so I’m not very proud of it. Those are things that I do sometimes – I lash out. But only towards people that I don’t respect. A while ago I promised myself I will not be contacting him again, I know it’s not very elegant and also, what I am doing that for? To…

Home Group post me a letter
Seriously, where I take all this content from? I thought that blogging will be difficult but after getting used to the fact that I’m putting myself out there, I have so much to say! Every part of my life wants to be on the blog. When I was in Weymouth I had this idea that…

Weymouth (dieting is my new hobby, and a Good Lawyer story)
I’m in Weymouth and the day is really nice today, sunny and warm. It makes me feel like I’m a really lucky person, I mean because of the fact that the weather got better as I came here. Hopefully it will stay like this tomorrow as well. I’m in a pub now where I’m one…
