I have and as a poc it's usually other security poc who are doing the following. I find it disheartening, I have never nicked anything from a shop in my life and don't need to, I have the funds to afford to buy food and toiletries and trust me being followed was happening way before the cost of living crisis began. I don't act any different to the average joe or Jane shopping in day for example Tesco/Sainsbury's - I don't usually have an issue in say M&S and anyways they sell better quality stuff.
Has this happened to anyone else? Btw I'm usually shopping with my baby in pram and my other daughters - so I'm usually distracted in the shop but it's becoming a common theme.
I have had mental health issues in the past and just had a baby so my hormones are all over the place but stuff like this can tend to play on my mind.
