You never know though. It might happen.

One day, out of the blue, I'll suddenly realise that my arm is shaking, imperceptibly at first and then for longer. Or my food will take take longer to go down, that annoying cough will become an actual concern, or I'll find a spot of blood in my underwear. And then I'll think.. "Why did I ever spend a minute thinking about things that either I didn't enjoy, or that didn't have a positive effect on those that I love or the world around me". And then I'll be irreversibly sad.

Sorry for the downturn in vibe I'm actually feeling fairly chirpy and usually am, this was just a moment of insight that I had and wanted to get down

Wish I could cope with being around people, or with not being around people.
One leads to anxiety, the other to loneliness.

That's a normal amount of time because the person pled not guilty, so the crown prosecution service has to gather all the evidence it needs to take it to court as they have to prove beyond reasonable doubt that the guy was guilty. The defendant needs to time to build up their case and evidence as well. It takes a while to build up the case, get witnesses and evidence, get a trial date with a judge and jury etc.

They didn't charge anyone until around Feb/March 2022, so having a trail in January 2023 is fairly quick, really. They take written and videoed statements at the time to use as evidence in court. Any witnesses can look back at their statement as well.

^ yes, it takes a while for a court case to be prepared by the CPS because the burden is on them to prove guilt. They have to get a court date, gather and look through evidence, contact witnesses, plan questions to ask in court, the defendant/s have to prepare their case too. Sometimes the defendant/s are remanded in custody and the man who was found guilty was remanded in custody when he was charged. What more can the CPS do?

What really is the point of anxiety?
Has being anxious ever benefited anyone? Made their life better?

^ I suppose you could say it helps us be aware of possible danger. But anxiety disorders, no I don't think there's any point to them! They're just a pain in the bum.

How much I hate teeth. Not in general, just mine. Actually it'd be more accurate to say they hate me

I think my initial point is justified. if it takes 14 months for a celebs crime to get to court, than if you or I experienced (serious) crime, it would take upwards of 2 years

^ You'd hope that statements etc would have been taken at the beginning of the process when people could remember better and then just used as evidence when the case came to court. You'd hope anyway!

^ yep, that's true. A trial is always has the name of the defendant/s - never the name of the victims.

I think I want to get a pet bunny after we move. :3 I've been looking up different breeds and mini lops might be my choice of bun. Ugh we need to move out already! Just feels like our life is on hold until then.
