Escaping From An Abusive Relationship
My guest shares her traumatic experience of escaping from an abusive relationship. With raw emotion and remarkable honesty, she dives into the dark corners of trauma bonding, gaslighting, and the relentless cycle of abuse that held her captive in a relationship that nearly cost her everything.
From the first alarming act of violence to the life-changing decision to reclaim her freedom and identity, her inspiring story can provide hope anyone caught in the grip of abuse.
Born into a loving family, she never imagined that her quest for love would lead her down a path of pain and terror. Yet, through her ordeal, she discovered her inner strength and the transformative power of self-love and healing.
Her story isn't just about the struggle; it's about the triumph of escaping the shadows of abuse and the journey toward healing and finding true love that respects and nurtures.
This video is a must-watch for anyone touched by the subject of domestic violence or seeking to understand the complexities of abusive relationships. It's a tribute to the human spirit's ability to overcome even the darkest trials.

    I am so sorry to hear your story. We share so many similarities unfortunately, I had a very similar childhood. To give you an idea my mom did meth with me at age 11 or 12. I also struggled with a 20 year opiate addiction. I 48 and got clean 6 years ago. I also do not have children for very similar reasons. So glad you survived. It’s your time to live for yourself ❤

    One common denominator I’ve noticed while going down the 9/11 rabbit hole, is that everyone helped one another. So many people stood together, did what they could. Heroes. I don’t think that would happen in 2024. People would be stampeding, looting the local pharmacy, RECORDING it all on their iPhones. It makes me sad. I’m so glad I grew up in a time when America was actually united in the early 2000s.

    I think it's far too simplistic- and perhaps a little arrogant - to put people in a category of 'having a pity party'. Everybody processes things differently, and there many stages of grief and trauma. To see it as 'you' got through it from 'being strong' while others didn't, implies they are 'weak' - where in fact, maybe a huge part of it is, they just weren't blessed like you were to have grown up with a great family and their support.

      I've lost a son so I'm not just BS'ing...I didn't take from her that attitude. I mean you can take that away if you're looking for that because she's not perfectly eloquent and scripted. But I think she's relating the same thing that grief counselors and curriculums do, that while slightly different for everyone, grief is a process you have to work thru and leave behind you in order to be productive. Eventually it comes down to decision making about the future and living with what happened instead of avoiding or re-living it. While it happens at a different pace for people depending on lots of things, I see nothing wrong with her trying to articulate her perspective of it. I don't think she's claiming to be an expert instructor, just a successful survivor.

    I get very concerned when people talk a lot about being “saved for a reason”. Have they not considered that many took a series of decision that day: not being late for work, getting a certain bus or train, taking their kids to school early or going up and extra flight of stairs that literally led them into the jaws of death. There is no such thing as being a chosen one for anything. Life is a combination of decision and luck but mainly luck. Joan Didion said “we tell ourselves stories in order to live” this is true of all of us and it gives us the strength to carry on living and make sense of disasters and traumas. She is speaking from a very simplistic standpoint where emotions and feelings don’t get in the way. Yes we can all have her philosophy but it’s only when deep tragedy happens that we know how we react. This is a combination of upbringing, previous life experience and genetic make up. We can’t really choose as much as she makes out how to deal with life even though we all wish we could and we are all told we can. At the end of the day we are all fleshy lumps of fragility and life IS deeply traumatic, especially for sensitive and creative people and it can be argued that we really are so out of control most of the time. This interview left me cold and concerned because she is not realising that just because she has dealt with it this way not everyone is the same and not everyone can. Also the positivity she speaks of in her childhood sounds like it could have not allowed her to feel true agony and pain growing up and this is equally as damaging. It’s good to hear other people’s responses but things really are not this black and white.

    • @kathyestes6577
      @kathyestes6577 Місяць тому

      ⁠@@phyllisfalcone9514I have experienced the hurt of survivors speaking about God answering their prayers in front of you while you didn’t get a similar good outcome. It seems so inconsiderate and illogical as well. Sometimes I respond by saying why do you think God didn’t answer my prayers. All they can say is whatever happens is God’s will and it’s not for us to understand. That leads me to think why do you pray if it’s just going to be whatever is God’s will. Anyway, I obviously grapple with all of it. I didn’t relate to this woman’s thinking, but I’m happy for her.

    Does this woman have a PhD in psychology and specializes in trauma? She talks about this amazing life that sounds perfect up until 9/11. Good for her. That is called being extremely lucky and I am happy for her. She is Lucky. Lucky. She is fortunate was one of the "lucky" people that survived. This woman is a narcissist. Tell the people who received calls from their loved ones minutes before they died in the towers or planes to "not hold onto the grief and have a positive attitude."

    The host thanks Jesus for a boyfriend finding his girlfriend at the same time others are jumping to their death, being burned, pulverized in the same area. Then says she doesn't believe in coincidence of some people avoiding the carnage because they were late for work. I disagree with this line of thought. Some were lucky that day while so many other lives were tragically cut short and many victims and family still suffer today.

Thank you for guiding me as well and I need to look at things more positively the way you do and put my baggage in a box and put it away. And your dad is right and so are you we only have one life to live and we need to live it positively and just live it to the fullest and enjoy our life as we have it.
