Yep absolutely feel the same way. I helped a few people make their submissions and it was a difficult but ultimately empowering process for them. I hope these stories help the wider community to understand how prevalent violence, abuse and neglect is in disabled people's lives and how we can all work towards preventing this.

Brutal. Thankyou for your time and energy and emotional labour. I hope whatever you drank to celebrate/commiserate tasted much better than my impulse-purchase premix. I understand why it was discounted now.
