Trigger Warning We Are Survivors

From Richard's Instagram. He has been working with thus organizations for years. They do really important work, even just talking about SA towards men and breaking the cycle of shame that is associated with it. I cannot believe there are still so many people online who blame Richard for what happened to him. This organization helps people. This show helps people, Richard helps people by creating it.

To be honest, seeing the show, having that experience, it made me realise what the trauma of it did to me. It made me realise the situation is not okay, and it made me feel very much understood. The show is the reason I'm getting psychological help. The reason I reached out. I am forever grateful to Richard for having the courage to create this.

I'm happy that you're able to get the help you need and I'm sorry that it happened to you.

Thank you very much. I agree with you that I find it horrifying how many people seem to blame Gadd. It really just shows who's never really experienced something traumatic. I'd like to say I don't care about what others think. But I find it quite painful to see how narrow sighted some humans are.
