Her name is not Diane.

Stalking is prevalent in Australia. There are hundreds of cases reported every year. These people’s existence have been besieged by a stalker. Survivors often are voiceless and have no place to tell their stories. This podcast is giving a voice to these victims. A place to tell their stories. Hopefully we can help others who are in this terrible situation to fight back.  


Lyndall did not want her real name used, so we decided to call her Diane. After calling her Lyndall twice, in error, we laughed about it and she was fine then going by Lyndall. Lyndall was in an abusive relationship for 10 years. She talks us through her journey, including a broken arm by her stalker, avo breaches and eventually having to move from the small town, where everyone knows your name.

If you or someone you know is being stalked please reach out for help:

 

Literally millions are stalked every year, yet there is still so much stigma, silence, and shame around this subject. It’s time we speak up. Together, we can all break the silence on this unacceptable, illegal, and far-too-widespread behaviour.
