You’re not anyone’s therapist, you are not more educated than the therapists who have said publicly and been harassed for saying that survivors processing their trauma this way is normal and not unhealthy.
why do you want to call the cops on people at all? Let alone for writing fiction.
you are upholding the good victim/bad victim dichotemy
why did you crosstag this unless you want proships to see it?
Go back to twitter, new arrival.
Hi, I’m actually a clinical social worker and I have bad news for this person.
If someone told me this I would not call the cops and I would not judge them!!
Because it’s literally our job to be open minded and accepting. If there’s no victim, there’s no problem. I only break confidentiality if the LAW requires it and it only does when there is a real physical victim.
I dont know what therapist you’re seeing you shames you for the coping mechanisms you already have, regardless of how toxic they feel they are. I work with people who do substances but I don’t sit there and read them to rights because that’s what they had at the time that made them feel okay. If it bothers them, they’ll tell me, or I’ll ask if it does.
Get a therapist who understands you and is willing to meet you where you’re at.
And why do you THINK so many professional psychologist, social workers, criminologists, researchers, sociologists, etc. are on the side of proshippers?
💣 – What was your WOW moment where you realized that S/I was the one?
I’m afraid I’m a bit more methodical than that, even in my attraction. I wouldn’t say there was ever one specific moment, just a cascading series of impressions, like weights on the side of a scale.
💢 – Have you ever gotten angry on S/I’s behalf?
I am, to my regret, sometimes quite an angry man. I would say my usual response to a lover’s distress is to become furious on their behalf!
💔 – Have you ever done anything that “broke” S/Is heart, or made them avoid you for a while? How did you fix it?
They say poor communication kills…
For many years our relationship was unfortunately more built around assumptions and expectations than anything, well, healthy. It led to a misunderstanding that spiraled out of control for a while, and we well… put our relationship on ice for a few years.
Recently however we’ve both been more open, and I am happy to say that our relationship is better than ever 😉
