    I’m not sure if you’re already doing this (apologies if you are) but you can get a certain number of counseling sessions and a security camera funded through Victims of Crime. Wish I’d remembered to tell you that earlier

    I really hope it provides some help

      Good idea, but I believe that they only provide support in cases of violent crime. A burglary while not home probably doesn’t classify.

      I’m still a minor, so for the next 6 or so months, I’ll be able to have my sessions paid for by the department. I think the place I’ve chosen is $100 out of pocket after the MHCP Medicare rebate, but I don’t really know how that works, so that’s a them problem for now.

      I’m not too sure what the plan is once I turn 18. At the moment $100 out of pocket is pushing it, but still affordable once a month, but I’m unsure how my circumstances will change. Plus the MHCP is only like 5 sessions a year or some stupidly low number. It’s one of those things I don’t think I’m going to spend much time thinking about since I have zero clue what’s going to happen

        No, they provide it for stalking as well

        Do what you’ve gotta do Baku, these idiots have created problems for you
