Social Workers

I know there are social workers that do invaluable work for children, but they did me wrong. My former social worker treated me like I was incompetent, due to my disability.

I don’t trust anyone anymore, it’s funny how desperate I am that I turned to a TSR chat forum page.

Please help me.

Does he/she hurts u with words or physically?
I had a pretty shocking social worker too. It was at a time when I really needed someone to listen to me the most and she (the social worker) couldn’t care less. It can mess with your head because they’re meant to be there for you and when they’re not it’s hard.
The thing that’s got me through hard times was just being there for myself… the ‘if no one else gon be there for me then I’ll be my own ride or die’. It’s important to know your own worth and to know that a disability doesn’t define you- it can only make you a stronger person.
Trusting people will come slowly if they’re a good person and you have patience.
I wish you all the best :smile:

Thank you for your kind words.

My social worker was so self-righteous and believed he didn't do anything wrong. I was abused by the government and education system for years. My family are unsupportive. However, my friends are the most supportive and they would always have my back.

No, my social worker wouldn't beat me.

He mentally hurt me with his words.

Sorry, for not clarifying this, in my last post to you.

I'm very emotionally sensitive, also I'd probably get in trouble for defending myself. He's no longer my social worker, as I turned 18 a few weeks back, but he's the social worker for my siblings.

Make a formal complaint and submit any evidence. How can anyone on here help beyond saying that?
