Network

At the Network for Surviving Stalking we hear from women and men from all walks of life and all ages who’ve been affected by stalking.  And although what happens in every case is different;  many of the problems faced by stalking victims are the same.  

Victims tell us that stalking  affects your confidence; that it makes you feel isolated; that you can feel paranoid about people.  Being stalked can cause anxiety, panic attacks, depression and post-traumatic stress disorder.  Many victims say they feel people don’t believe them – that they’re making it all up.  

Surviving Stalking

Stalking affects more than a million women and over 900,000 men every year in UK. We hope that our web-site can help unite people affected by this crime.  Victims tell us that it gives them comfort and strength to know they’re not alone and there are others out there who understand what they’re going through.  Jemma’s Story and the other stories on the right of the screen are real-life accounts of how stalking can affect lives.  

If you’d like to express your views about your experience  of stalking so others can read about it (anonymously if you prefer) email  campaign@nss.org.uk 

Stalking can have a profound affect on victims.  But it’s worth remembering this. A 2006 survey by NSS and the University of Leicester found that half of all the respondents said they ‘were stronger people as a result of the stalking’.
