@amcampbell84 I’m sorry for your earthly loss. Happy they’re no longer in pain. Be gentle on yourself as you grieve. You’re not alone.
Great book, important topic regarding domestic abuse.
@lovewins11011 I’m beautiful (by societies standards). That elevated his standing at professional and personal events. I’m wise, personable, intelligent a great conversationalist. I’m an amazing mom.
The mother he thought he deserved as a child (ick).
I’m everything he isn’t.
@theBrianaMills 💝 Brian❣️ How many times have you heard, “NO ONE is coming to save you?”
“Figure it out!” “This is your responsibility to fix your life!” “Get over it and move on!”
That’s me♿️my minor🏳️⚧️teen. We’re both legally disabled. 300% below the poverty level/Homeless/Stalked/Isolated/0 family/supports/resources. It’s been a DECADE! We have zero disability protections. Presently their public school is harassing me/them because they keep getting Covid
Disabled/high risk people have been completely left for dead. We are abandoned, discarded, and pushed aside. Our mental health is almost nonexistent now. Please be easy on us. We’re doing our best in a society that doesn’t care about our wellbeing. It’s so exhausting. 😔
Such as the newest language regarding #coercivecontrol in CT and WA state. Not one lawyer is implementing the new DVPO’s. The legislation won’t return a call/email/in person visit sit down. Useless when not used. The bar association doesn’t sign registered letters as received
@DrEmmaKatz “Paying with their” {CPTSD brain}. I loathe grammatical errors and leaving the faucet on, misplacing over 20 things a day, losing my train of thought, being in a rush and getting nothing done. It’s not a life, it’s torture.
@DrEmmaKatz I have 2 adult/1 minor child, they have/are paging w/ “the entirety of their childhoods”. Foundational/developmental needs nit met that will absolutely change the trajectory of whom they are to become. I do not know why the courts are allowed to alter literal humans with apathy!

It’s been my experience family/friends/community/faith based organizations/advocates/nonprofits engage in avoidance/shaming. I’ve had to sit in front of 100’s of people asking for food/utilities/clothing. I’m told to explain how I will fix my situation/not need next month x’s 10y
@DrEmmaKatz It has been my experience that family and friends experience ‘compassion fatigue’ fairly early on, particularly after the abusive relationship has ended. They fail to understand that the end of the relationship is not the end of the abuse. #PostSeparationAbuse can be far worse.

@AndrewCicchett1 Does anyone in any country keep tabs on .gov .org? non-profits? I’ve had 3 of 200 give assistance. One bag of groceries/month water & electric & apologies. I filled out applications/interviews. I’ve been 300% below the poverty level x’s 4 years & 3 kids. Where does the $ go?
@amcampbell84 There are so many angles, incidences and exposures to cruelty and heinous acts that it’s often difficult to recount. Your post(s) help me reframe so as to sort it & create my armor to draw upon moving forward. Armor to keep me away from ‘familiar’ to seek new. Thank you
@DrDoyleSays I call that my quiet observer. The observer encompassing me in warmth that lacks judgement, opinion or emotion. The neutral space that allows me to be simply me. Kudos to you! I’m vigilantly making strides back to me irregardless of whom has control of the exterior of my person📍
@AndrewCicchett1 We’ve been held captive from all friends/family 2000 miles away. Insurmountable distance due to the decade long financial deprivation & family not knowing why we are gone. The most crushing aspect is no one has come looking for us. No one’s fundraising to bring us home. Why?
@AndrewCicchett1 Do they get looked up and down as though their mere existence is to be looked up and down. assessed, sexualized and commented on openly not matter where they are, whom they’re with and what they are wearing? I’m living to age out of this. It started at age 11.
