Im not in a good place lately
I've been struggling with a problem in my life for awhile. I find that it consumes me more and more as the days go on the past 6 months. I was accused of a crime I did not commit and found to be telling the truth in a court of law. For some reason, in criminal law, unless you sue the bill falls to the innocent. The bill is large, large enough that I will be 109 before I can pay it off whilst paying off a mortgage as well. The weight of the times I went through and the debt makes it worse. I don't sleep very well and Im a lot more unhappy than I have ever been. I'm resentful of the person who made the accusation walked away free of scrutiny. I feel so angry towards the justice system and no respect for the police. Every night I pray I do not wake up and sad as it makes my wife, it feels a better option. I see little joy anymore.

Re: Im not in a good place lately
Hey @Hateful_Job
Welcome to the forums. I am glad you have come here to share some of what you have been carrying and will hopefully find some great support here.
It sounds like you have been through a tremendus amount this past few months and I can only imagine how it has taken its toll.
It sounds like you're sitting with some really heavy feelings so I really encourage you to keep connecting and finding support - here, or elsewhere (like a theraist, family, friends).
You can also reach out to the SANE Help Centre (1800 18 7263, Mon-Fri, 10am-10pm) to speak to a counsellor, or Lifeline (13 11 14, 24/7) for crisis support.
Take care,
Basil (Moderator)
