Today on #WorldHijabDay, its important we raise awareness about all the women who are forced to wear it. The ones who have their choice taken away. If you have been or are being forced to wear the hijab you might find my blog useful to read - https://t.co/kj8f2IczrA #NoHijabDay
How many of you have been told by a family member that they wish you had never been born or that they had aborted you? Sadly, I see so many clients who have had this said to them. Read the blog to know you're not alone. #exmuslim#exmuslimtherapist

CBT is one of the therapies that is used the most here in the UK. If you aren't sure what it is or if it's right for you, here is a really basic explanation with an example. https://t.co/Hf8rhL8gmG
@longsighcarryon Yup. When someone non-practising raises it, its seen as an attack. We need people from the "inside" to change things, which sadly doesn't happen.
I wish more religious people spoke about parts of their chosen religion that they don't agree with. Instead, they silently choose to ignore or not practise certain parts. Any form of criticism is seen as not acceptable and met with hostility. This is problematic. #exmuslim
If you're an ex-Muslim in the UK or Europe and are looking for support and to meet other ex-Muslims, I am running a support group starting in November. More info here:

I've been a qualified therapist for over 10 years. I've been running After Faith for 3 years, helping other ex-Muslims. I've decided to use my experience of providing group therapy to provide a supportive space for ex-Muslims. If you want to know more, get in touch ❤️
A lot of these are UK based and there seems to be very few services available for ex-Muslims. If anyone is aware of other useful services for ex-Muslims (any country) please share with me 🙏🏽 #exmuslim

Wow. Apparently this teacher is in hiding TWO years after showing the children a CARTOON of the prophet. What the hell is wrong with some people?? Grow up. Just because YOU care about something doesn't mean everyone else has to.
Sadly, no legal action has been taken to protect the teacher who is forced to live in hiding with his family. These fanatics have created an environment of fear for everyone who disagrees with their extremist beliefs and they're emboldened by the incompetence of the authorities.
I provide talking therapy to people experiencing depression/anxiety. For the past 3 years I've been offering support to ex-Muslims and people who have left other religions. You can find out more about my services at https://t.co/Hl6s61CriY #exmuslim
