I left my abusive advisor in 2018. I completed my PhD in 2020. I won’t finish paying my attorneys for the legal fees related to the harassment, stalking, and retaliation for 6 more months. This is why people don’t report. Even heavily discounted, this is cost prohibitive.
It’s so so horrible.

My case lasted 4 years and has had a terrible knock effect on my career.

( Most the case isn’t in public record as not to ‘tarnish’ anyone’s reputation. We had to reframe the whole thing to avoid retaliation — but well ...

I’m so sorry. I also get, now that I’ve been through it, how retaliation is pretty much unavoidable and shrinking ourselves to try to avoid it doesn’t work. It’s haunting to always wonder what changes in your career may be due to retaliation and never really knowing.
Reading about the disability discrimination you experience and being characterised as crazy, getting mocking statements made, having your social media conversations reported back. God that literally all happened to me as well. It’s insane how ableism is so common place.
Oh wow.
I’m surprised at how many likes this got and how many people.
I’ve been so scared about being too public, as I’ve been afraid of repercussions. I’ve never fully written out all the stuff that happened or even some of the worst things.
It’s nice feeling supported.
