I’m asking for help during one of the hardest times of my life ❤

After many years of psychosocial ill-health at my workplace, I eventually suffered from burnout. In the end, I was dismissed on personal grounds, but it was then that I spoke for the first time about how unwell I was and that I was struggling with serious suicidal thoughts. Despite this, I was made to leave immediately, without any support or help being put in place.

Since then, my situation has deteriorated significantly. I am on sick leave, struggle daily with anxiety and now lack the financial security I had built up over a long working life, as my dismissal meant I ended up on the basic level of sickness benefit (540 SEK/day). In the poor mental state I was in, I didn’t have the strength to fight to stay on, nor would I have been able to cope with it anyway. At the same time, I have no access to legal protection through any insurance.

With the help of a solicitor, I want to try to bring a civil lawsuit against my employer – both for my own sake and so that no one else has to end up in the same situation, where they might not survive. But I do not have the financial means to do this on my own.

That is why I am asking for your support. Every contribution, large or small, means the world to me.

Thank you for taking the time to read this and for all your support ❤️
