’They said I was crazy and put me on antipsychotics - then police found a man living in my loft’ | LBC

A young mum from Kent says she was was put on anti-psychotic medication and dismissed as “crazy” after insisting someone was living above her flat - only for police to discover she was right.

What terrible friends this woman has. According to the article, none of them bothered to go and look with her or stay over there for a few nights? The article makes clear she was experiencing hallucinations, but still, I feel like a persistent thing as described warrants some kind of follow up, at least for peace of mind. Maybe help her set up a nanny cam at the very least. And then none of them even apologized?

I’m also surprised there were no charges brought against her neighbor for aiding, but I have no idea how that works in the uk.

Yeah honestly even if I thought my friend was completely batshit I’d still probably have taken a peak. Outcomes are confirmation they need more help or confirmation they were right, plus getting to spend a few minutes exploring somewhere you shouldn’t be which is fun. Just hang out with your friend for an evening playing games or whatever and take a moment to wander up there
