08.01.2022 I did a lot of behind-the-scenes thinking in my head. It was planning to manage the outcomes as best I could in order to stay as safe as possible.

05.01.2022 Dr Allan Wade on the problem with talking about people as not 'trusting' services. "The problem is not a lack of trust. It actually means that they havent had a lot of respect. We frame it as a lack of trust. Its actually a lack of reason to trust. Its about how people have been mistreated by those in the system, people like us. They are watchful and careful, so they should be congratulated for being smart and strategic. Their lack of trust should be commended."

04.01.2022 People who experience violence are not passive objects, they are active in their resistance and responses to violence. People resist and respond to violence in visible and invisible ways that might not seem obvious or directly related to what is going on, but this resistance and response to violence is important to them and is part of their efforts to uphold their dignity. They may not have been able to stop the violence but that doesnt mean they let it happen. http://www.insightexchange.net//resistance-response-evide/
