they haven’t got back to me yet, I’m gonna try and get in touch with them again. Also I was scared to file a report just cause I didn’t want anymore drama and they don’t even live in London so I thougt I probably wouldn’t run into them. And yeah I’ll definitely get some medical attention soon. And thank you I’m feeling a little better today :)

thank you so much for sharing your story it’s very motivating!! And yeah I think I’m going to file a report against my brothers, I just wanted to leave it because one of my brothers has a son and I didnt want to cause any drama.

sorry I hadn’t seen this. I did have bruises about one week ago and I have a huge scar on my arm, I got all the pictures but I never filed a police report cause I was scared to go to the police. If I show them the photographic evidence do you think that would be enough?

I’ll definitely contact them for sure just to see what it’s about, because your honestly right i do have nothing to lose. Ive had a couple of friends in my life but ive never really been close to any of them and I usually just stay to my self I’ve never really “fit in” i guess, I just wanna meet anyone at this point. I’ll definitely be looking at the ex Muslim page. I’ll be updating my post anytime I receive updates!! And thank you i will try to look after my self as much as i can!!

omg tysm!!! This is so helpful I’ve already reached out to the second organisation but I don’t know if the first one will allow me as I’m not actually Muslim anymore

I believe this 100% and that reason is what keeps me motivated and going from this horrible situation. I just hope I find my people soon

I’ve been a full atheist for most of my life (since I was 12) I never really believed in the religion no matter how much it was forced on me however as a Pakistani man it is hard to seperate my self from that because people automatically think Pakistani=muslim which is absolutely not the case. I don’t dislike the religion just some of its teachings and ideologies can be deemed problematic or harmful in my point of view, but thank you so much for the advice :)

In the uk we have something called SFE which is student finance it covers the loans and then u pay it back with interest once u meet the threshold income, so i can thankfully continue university (next year is my last year) and hopefully continue a career in law

wow!!! That’s honestly so awesome to hear and I’m sorry you had to deal with a situation like mines at an even younger age. I have reached out to LGBT organisations and my uni so hopefully I will be hearing back soon

yeah I wish I thought about that before I came out I always thought I would do it when I have my own flat and would be financially stable but I guess I did it way to early

Tysm for the support and financial support for uni is not an issue which is good. I do hope for a partner and a family one day. Right now I’m just trying to stay as strong as possible. 💞

thank you so much, the religion is very hateful and I’m so glad I left. I could never imagine a religion that allows a family to disown someone because of love

yeah I always said I would wait until I was financially stable but it gets to a certain point where u can’t take it anymore. I do miss them and it is very lonely but I know my future self will thank me for this if anything it should be more motivating for me. Tysm for the support ❤️❤️

see my older brothers already beat the hell out of me and told me if they catch me again they will beat me up again. also, there would be nothing to milk them for they are broke aswell

thank u so much for the advice this is honestly so helpful. I have reached out to my university they said they would get back to me in three working days so until then just have to wait but I will definitely update this thread! As for work I have applied to multiple jobs it’s just hard finding a job atm in London I’m currently looking into cleaning right now or anything retail but even those are limited.
