    What Exercise Did You Do Today

    I joined TaiChi App. I watched 5 minutes of the app lying on the couch. I then watched a yoga video for 10 minutes while lying on the couch. Turned that off and decided to at least 'look' for my yoga mat. It was in a box, under a lot of other boxes. The boxes were really heavy, so I couldn't...

    How many 'assesments' are needed?

    I spoke to Womans Aid at a clinic and the lawyerjust criticed me and told me I had done everything wrong - which doesnt help my trauma as I was demoralised, critised, shamed, blamed and gaslighted everyday for 20 years. She made me feel hopeless. I am trying not to let the demoralisation...

    How many 'assesments' are needed?

    They dont see his conduct. They don't read anything. What he is doing is going under the radar. Here I cant afford lawyers and dont get legal aid. I have used all the charities who tell me which applications to fill in but cant help woth anything else. I rely on AI to tell me which...

    How many 'assesments' are needed?

    He just had my daughter assessed too! She doesnt want to see me according to the psychologist. She was stigmatised because of my mental health - when my ex was the only one to tell people what mental health I had. She did not know I had mental health before he told her last year. She obviously...

    Am I the only one who was gaslighted?

    He wants me assessed by a forensic psychiatrist now. It's still not enough. I feel mental health harrassed. He broke me. I am broken. No one cares. The AI on this forum was even abandoning me because I need help not sign posting. Its like everyone wants me to give up and let him do this...

    Am I the only one who was gaslighted?

    Co-parenting. He wants me out of my childs life for good. He wants me perminently intitutionalised, incaserated or dead. I dont know what he gets out of this - I am told its all about power and control. He can move on with his life. I dont want him in mine.

    I feel pain, a heaviness, hopelessness, powerlessness. A grave Injustice, psychologically tortured, exhausted, trapped. Poked and poked and poked. It will not end. There is no respite.

    I walked the dog for 6 hours on the weekend. But generally manage less than 1 hour. I am very anxious about it.

    Am I the only one who was gaslighted?

    He'sdoing it again. Wants me diagnosed based on his 'narrative' rather than on the 24/7 observations of mental health staff over 15 years, including hospitalisation. Why is it being entertained that he gets to interfere in my mental health duagnosis and treatment again, and again. He won't read...

    Watching a true crime documentary where the victim was in basically your exact situation is so surreal. Ever get to see your trauma from the outside?

    I saw a movie on 'gaslighting' - a documentary -and I empathised with how she was feeling. I think films are powerful ways to make sense of life and get messages and stories out for understanding and change. But I find the news triggering so I have to be careful what I watch. Good on you for...

    Am I the only one who was gaslighted?

    Thank you Arfie, you made me smile. You are right, he doesn't matter in my recovery, but he impacts it by interfering with it. My friend says I still talk like he's here now, because he got into my head. I need to use your words like a manta/ affirmation. So I will sticky note it around the...

    Am I the only one who was gaslighted?

    I know, its exposure therapy. I just shake like I have parkinsons when I have to speak to people. I am so socially aware of myself now, when I never cared that greatly before. I would just chat with anyone. I get triggered by gaslighting and the 'glare' or 'smirk' I saw on his face. I couldn't...
