Bruises:
TW! DV ⚠️
Bruises:
I'm really sorry, but after a two-year battle with an ex and their obsession, I'm incredibly emotional right now because today I was successful in obtaining a six-month non-molestation order against the individual.
Not only does this help protect me, but it may also help anyone who needs to report him in the future. They'll be listened to. They'll be believed. 🙏🏻
Safeguarding always matters, and today I'm proud to be a woman who was brave enough to speak up. With the support of the courts, I have upheld my boundaries, and I sincerely hope the mental torture and constant poking at old bruises finally comes to an end.
Bad things happen. I've spent too long suffering.
Today, I'm proud of myself.
I completely broke down after the court hearing and had to ring legal back later because I was so overwhelmed by everything that had happened.
But today, the system worked.
Today, we succeeded.
Today, protections have been put in place that will lift an enormous emotional and mental weight from my shoulders.
For the next six months, if he does anything, the system has my back. And for that, I am incredibly grateful.
A huge thank you to the judge for recognising the necessity of this order and helping to put those protections in place.
Now I want to focus on getting my life back, finding my peace, and moving forward in a positive direction.
Sarah Wingfield 🙏🏻✨

Alt text: A nine-panel collage showing multiple photographs of bruising and discolouration across different areas of a person's body, including the upper arms, thighs, and torso. The bruises vary in size and healing stage, ranging from faint yellowing and blue marks to darker purple bruising. One image includes a visible tattoo featuring a rose design. Across the centre of the collage is the watermark "KAWAiiDOLLDECORA.UK" and the text: "Another life lesson I did not want..." The final panel shows several stacks of trading cards arranged on a table. The collage appears to document physical injuries and their progression over time.
