I don’t know what to do

We have separate leases as it’s a rooming agreement so it doesn’t fall under Rta rules. I have tried everything and there is no help @justanotherguy

@Sirine if it's just you on the lease can you get her evicted?

Fair enough @justanotherguy .

I wasn't aware that you wanted to go back, but you just didn't want the flatmate there.

Could police do anything?

No I cant

oh hun @Sirine . You deserve so much better.

@tyme is there any other support on offer from this service?

@Sirine if this person has assaulted you that should be something you can report to police. If you are paying rent and not causing problems you should be able to live freely in your own residence. Could you make a report with police anyway? You might be surprised and get a positive outcome. Nobody should expect you to confront her on your own.

Hey @justanotherguy @Sirine ,

In terms of working with the stress and emotions associated with what has happened, we do have our Guided Service which you can have a look at. You can find out if you are eligible here https://www.sane.org/referral

Monday - Friday, you are also welcome to utiilise our Drop-in service and speak to our counsellors to help you through this on 1800 187 273. Or, webchat is also available (M-F 10am-10pm) https://www.sane.org/get-support/drop-in-service#

So sorry hun @Sirine housing is so hard for vulnerable people I really feel you. There isn't much support unless the person is a romantic partner but housemates can be abusive .

Good that you have records.

I was in a similar situation and had to stay somewhere else and the person refused to move out so disrespectful.

I just hope you are safe and can get away from the abuser. Housing is not properly supported for ppl with cPTSD and it's not fair.

@Sirine I'm so sorry for your situation 😞 I really hope the tenant advocate can help. If not, have you tried a local lawyer for free service? Community laywer I mean?
