      I have called many times.
      They could not do anything !!!!
      Grants are to create jobs - just another scam. Just check the audits for those non-profits- you will see where the money goes.
      Put those grants to protect victims and charge the predators
      But this will not happen - just look how many legislators are wife beaters, cheeters and so on
      Thats why law is not followed
      They will hire lawyers and victims are screwed
      Police can't do anything they will say domestic hire a lawyer
      Psychopaths abuse without leaving trace.
      To get any help you have to be dead to get any validation
      Victims dont get belived and monsters can just outright deny anything.
      JUGDES see this ......but not act on it
      Good luck America 🇺🇸 you are headding for a destruction

      It's so hard to find the words, especially if we grew up dealing with abuse and bullying. It doesn't have to be family. It can be dealing with too much control growing up, too. Yes, you blame yourself, especially if you graduated to worse and worse abuse and dealt with severe gas lighting and severe psychological; threats, especially towards children, character assassination threats and actions as I experienced, and all abuse because one sharks spots the wounded victim of another and takes a bigger bite. It helped so much to start voicing it after all the years, especially when I came up with my own terminology and descriptions and realized it mirrored or was the same as the terminology in the healing and supportive communities I then discovered.

    The most abusive person I have ever encountered is my mother. I married my "mother" and when I finally divorced him my parents both sided with him secretly so they looked supportive of me to others but with me let it be known I was the problem and even wrote letters on behalf of my ex (who tried to kill me before I filled for divorce) to the judge. My lawyer fought this and she won. For me growing up with sadistic abuse from my mother (enabled by my father) left me drawn to abusive people. I would like to see more on abusive mothers, in my experience they are given a free ride and cause far more harm than they are credited for.

    • @1966wilky
      @1966wilky 3 роки тому +13

      Me too. Our standard of acceptable behavior towards us by others are set by the example of our upbringing. When the very person who’s supposed to nurture you and show unconditional love and support is abusive we go on to set the bar so low for ourselves. We can go through our lives for decades upon decades without realizing that the way we were treated by our husbands, wives, partners etc was abusive too. You’re trained from childhood to obey and people please. That YOU don’t really matter as long as you are being a good person to others, right? When you eventually wake up and realise how you’ve lived your life for other people, in fear, being controlled, manipulated and abused without realizing it, and often still surrounded by abusive people that spot this vulnerability in us, it’s overwhelming.

    • @b.boston8529

      It is not only mothers, it is also fathers. Your lawyer was a gem. My sisters did this to me. My parents were good, my dad's father could be sadistic, it went right past my dad. His sister he was so good to was a character assassinating, greedy, lying, utterly selfish narcissist, in my life since the start, sweet and sad appearing, she was on my mind all the time when I met my second sociopath partner, my lovebombing husband who love bombed my whole family and triangulates everyone against me. I had no one like that in court, but my kids had someone half decent, she had integrity in the end and my son's therapist and mine had it and understood, too. The narcs won materially because courts are tilted in favour of predators and their predator attorneys and against survivors.

    I'm stuck. An invalid, I can't escape right now. Every romantic relationship has been like this. Now I'm back w/ my abusive parents with my child. Sometimes I dream about just getting in a van and driving off but I'm on so much medication for all the illnesses that have been caused by the C-PTSD, I have SO MANY specialists, I don't think I can get out of this at the moment. It's at the point where my cat's are only allowed in my bedroom, no where else! I tried to escape last yr but the police believed the mask my mother wore and that I was crazy so I didn't get any help + I'm SO sick (almost bedbound) I dont even think I could take care of myself, my lil one and the animals :'( .....but.... This video was incredible. THANKYOU. Thankyou from the bottom of my heart. It makes sense of a lot of the behaviour. W/ the power and control imbalance.

      First of all leave him,
      Second of all the reason every relationship has become like this is NOT FATE
      its your subconsciuous mind that does that (Codependency- self love deficit disorder) thats why you always attract abusers. Its like ants going towards the sugar. In order to resolve this you need to go see a psychologist and start a recovery.

    Law enforcement needs training. They are often more likely to side with the abuser than the victim. They are just as easily coerced by the coercer. Abusers almost always say something along the lines of: He/she is crazy! They didn't take their medication! They've been drinking! They have anger issues and just got mad. Notice they project the focus of the situation back onto the victim.

      Yeah not really- I got arrested with a concussion from a sledgehammer to the face, forced to swallow and choke on my vomit, and refused medical assistance for over three hours. Months later when I got the disclosure, I found that the two white male officers had covered for my perpetrator, and wrote that I had hit my head on a car door apparently. My "independent police complaint" was investigated by officers who were already working with those two officers at that office. To this day, my ex partner follows and harrases me and there is nothing that I can do. I was assaulted on the 28th of December 2019. I live in Auckland NZ. Nothing has changed here.

I made it clear from day one that I had these recordings and my legal team (legal aid) only advised me to transcribe it they never advised me to provide the audio to be submitted to the other party.

I though I could I change him.... his mom was a domestic abuse coordinator manager.... she knew what was going on between him and I but she always took his side.... she was scared if him..... at 2 yrs I ended up pregnant.... and I thought maybe he would change for me and our son.... but the abuse continued through out my pregnancy... it hurt so much because my parents .. family and friends... lived 4 hours away........ he ruined my car so I had no vehicle.... and he kept breaking my phones.... I started working at a casino in his hometown and he wouldn't let me keep my pay.... he would take it from me and gamble it away .. when he lost all the money... it was my fault.... he started doing Cocaine with his friends and we would be at a party every night. . If I didn't want to go I would be forced to go.... one night one of his friends defended me and he got into a fight with his friend and then he started calling me a slut and accusing me so many things.... he ruined every holiday for me because he would always end up drunk and hurting me... when I was about 3 months pregnant... he almost killed me... he put a pillow over my face and sat on it.... I thought I was going to lose my baby .. until I stopped struggling he got off of me.... when he passed out I tried to leave and he woke up and the abuse began again.... his parents knew everything I told them everything but they always took his side.... when I was 7 and a half months pregnant. He committed suicide..... for a very long time I hurt over him and missed him... but I think where would I be right now if I never got away from him?? I wish I reached out to more ppl.... I wish I left him sooner. I wonder if I left him would he have still been alive?? It seems like bad relationships follow me.... he committed suicide because he found out his mom had cancer and the drs said she had 6 months to live.... on top of that... his ex girlfriend found out I was pregnant with his first son... and she told him he was never going to see his 2 girls again.... the next morning he got drunk and shot himself.... in front of me.... I wish no one would ever go through stuff like this... but sadly... its out there. . And because of embarrassment ppl will hide it.... 😔

    My friend has just been involved in a 19 month relationship where she was brutally beaten many many times, forced out of her job, financially abused to £30k, forced onto drugs. The violence became normal, he used his kids from his previous relationship to emotionally blackmail her, he drowned her dog in the canal behind her house. Even after she finally got rid and had nothing he kept returning and one night climbed in a window and beat her for hours. She lives in fear of him, afraid to press charges. She did not tell the police everything because she was so controlled, she would be locked in rooms, he took her away her friends, her family, her car, her job, her confidence and her sense of identity. She struggles to day to day tasks and now bailiffs and creditors are after her. She doesn’t even have a toilet seat as one night he ripped it off to hit her with as she was resisting when he was holding her head down the toilet. There is no practical help out there, woman’s aid are very nice but there is no real help out there. She will soon be homeless as she cannot pay the mortgage, the creditors and eat whilst having had her finance job taken away from her. Often he comes drags her into a car and takes her away. It’s totally dehumanising, West Midlands Police do what they can and we are seeking an anti molestation order but the victim has given up on life, her eyes used to be magical now there is nothing. She has been completely controlled now we worry for her life everyday

      It's horrible to think that predators get more support, freedom, and justice than victims. I am thankful to know there are people like you supporting her but she needs a new identity, a new life in a new place, and therapy. They need to educate victims and give them even new countries and new identities and protection until they document and lock up someone like that for good. This needs to be everyone's responsibility, not only yours and your family's.

If he is coming for her and it's obvious, the self-defense should be too. She needs to be confident enough in her aim and ability to pull the trigger because otherwise the gun will end in his hands and she will truly be dead.

    Thank you for this. It takes a village (a city and her leaders, a cult, a .org, etc. ).In my case, there is a community of covert coercive abusers acting together, as is often the case when legal abuse, stalking by proxy, surveillance, massive technological abuse (off the charts and traceable), car tracking, car and driving abuse (interference, harassment on the roads-trying to make me late to work, setting me up for road traps and molestation/cryptographics) and millions of dollars is being spent to isolate, financially devastate, parentally alienate, and keep me from the career I grew, the man of my dreams, etc. It's wild how far covert abuse can go when toxic community members, coworkers, roommates, and all flying monkeys are doing the narcissists' murderous biddings under the radar. They are as accountable as the narcissist in some cases, for pushing his ruinous, devastating, debilitating agenda, which often leads to murder, as you have well articulated.
    When people do not speak out about abuse, they will also be held accountable by God.

    punishing people for their behaviour is coercive control too and that's the mistake justice makes ... they use their power with a legal umbrella and it doesn't help women that were victims of narcissistic and/or coercive control. We have to be cautious of the riple effect, there is always a long period of being uncertain about the situation and during that period, you are extremely vulnerable because you CAN be the cause instead of the victim. Only after 11 years of being abused by the SYSTEM (and not only by the individual), I'm sure that I did the right thing, making the situation public (but that made the coercive control even worse and it killed me from inside out). The only thing that can make a difference is showing that it works like a boomerang - abusing people leads to loss and there's no point of return. Maybe it gave you a moment of power, but alike heroin, it has a horrible price. The price I had to pay for refusing to go with the flow is isolation, but I'd rather be alone than in the wrong relationship and I'd rather be dead than in the wrong life. Beware of the hidden rewards and pleas, women, don't act like the lesser man, be the best version of yourself and help unconditionally whenever you can. My sister mailed me: *I don't want to help you and you know why* and that quote will be used when we analyze the chain reaction after I told Peter that I wanted to divorce him. The best examples are the cases and mine is a school example of how sick things can become without any reason. If the public opinion would have supported me, it never would have become so bad that I no longer want to invest in a life that was so promising, there is nothing left of the old Karen and I don't mind.

      It is really important to trust yourself. The point of coercive control is to destroy our trust in ourselves and keep the victim confused - a type of perspectivecide.

So I make fun of it - was a reaction I read, even not addressed to me personally, but to someone else, ignoring me completely ... the problem is that I have to use the comment box of UA-cam videos to make announces that are important for the collective, but people make fun of it and are rewarded with likes ... the only positive is the fact that it's no longer taboo to speak about the feeling of being controlled and misunderstood. I reacted to that post, but that reaction was removed and that's how they even (ab)use the people who try to start a normal dialogue - you have to be dead before they value your efforts and I don't have much time left. I'd wish that my name was strong enough to make those people feel ashamed - you don't get what you want, but what you need to go on - but I'm afraid that this only is the start of a change that will take more than a couple of years ... sometimes things have to be experienced on a collective level before we even start to see how destructive they are ... *this is the silent war* (but that doesn't have to stop us)!

    Making male rape a stigma unlike female stigma, like branding someome to eternity for over 50 years long a creep because he touched someones arm being happily partying, but someone didnt like it, is what I call a society making men walk on eggshells who don't want to become a "rapist for life".
    Isn't that emotional abuse either from the state and society? Rape is wrong and should be punished but stop cancel and stigmatizing people around the topic in lifetime. That is why people can be very anxious about it and we are not allowed to express it for society, because of their toxic attitude to masculinity .

      More common. Not many men report abuse because of possible shame from their peers and the police.

      @@purrfection2208 Hey, I see you're on a few comments. Happened to me and I had no one to call to help me cuz she pushed away everyone of my friends and even my twin brother so I would be 100 percent dependant on her and I had no idea I was dependant on her the whole time... The trauma I had to go through and the cups of water I cried yet I still slept with her every night. It's wild... Now I'm trying to get back to my normal self and what mkes me me and what I actually love and my hobbies and I barely can.

      I think it’s more common that men control women. It’s also more common that women will be killed by their abusive partners. But you’re right, there needs to be attention on how this happens to men as well.
