Hey Everyone! Here is this week's space to chat or vent about things which you think may be more triggering for the Community but still want to get off your chest.

-

Every Monday morning we will close the thread and start a new one so we have a fresh one each week. If you'd like to check out this week's venting thread that isn't triggering, click here

    I told someone briefly about the guy controlling me and then she tried to call me to chat about it but I completely freaked out

    Hey @River I hear that this phone call brought some stressfull feelings up for you, being controlled by someone can't be a nice feeling and I'm sure speaking about it is also hard. What do you think is most making you feel freaked out about the phone call?

    @Verity i feel like I won’t be believed

    @River It must feel daunting not knowing if a friend will beleive you, would you say this is around not believing you are being controlled?

    I ended up telling someone higher up in the group and she was really nice about it

    @River It's good to hear that you found the courage to tell someone higher up and that she was really nice about it, you deserve that kindness. How are you feeling now that you've told her what's been happening?

  • RiverRiver Posts: 5,365 Part of The Furniture

    pretty okay actually @Callum she was really nice about it

    @River It's so good she was really nice about it! It's a pity the doctors aren't too helpful at the moment. Remember we're here if you need to talk about that.

    I'm wondering if you are feeling calmer about the situation with being controlled now that you've spoke about that?
