On May 13, 2023, I sent an email titled "Setting the whole story straight." It went to every institution involved in my family's case. Social services. Child protection. The therapist. Everyone.
It was long. Detailed. Documented. Timestamped. Every incident. Every conversation. Every promise made and broken. Every time I sought help and was turned away. Every time she was violent and it wasn't recorded. Every time my honesty was used as a weapon against me.
I thought: if I lay out everything — ALL of it, including my own mistakes — they'll have to acknowledge the full picture. They'll have to stop relying on a one-sided narrative built from a DV record that's a decade old and a therapist who violated his own diagnosis.
What happened: the social worker who received it wrote a request to child protection to investigate me. Based on the email I sent asking for fairness.
My honesty became their evidence.
That's when I understood. The system doesn't reward honesty. It punishes it. If I had stayed quiet, hired a lawyer, played the game — maybe. But I told the truth, all of it, my mistakes included, and they used my own words against me.
So now I'm telling the truth again. All of it. But this time I'm not sending it to institutions that file it in a drawer. I'm publishing it where everyone can read it.
They asked me to take the last posts down. I took the names out. The facts stay.
