What my care experience was primarily made up of...

The put downs, the comparisons, the slander, the keeping secrets, feeling alone, constantly criticised, the lack of guidance, celebration;  remembrance of important days (such as birthdays) and a safe space to grieve the loss of my mum. 10 years later, I still struggle to overcome the feelings from this experience and I’ve had to learn to begin to put in place boundaries to stop the manifestation of these experiences in my adult life.
