    The Cycle of Abuse is outdated and does not reflect what women say about the violence. Abusers choose to use violence at any time, at times does not build up nor does a honeymoon happen. Dr. Lenore Walker based her research on wealthy women's experiences.

    Unfortunately you get help to leave but nothing protects you when your ex is a sociopath and continues to use the courts to abuse. Many family courts go on the side of the abuser if he has a lot of money encouraging the abuser to keep fighting in the courts abusing the former spouse so the court and all the so called professionals who all get more money. They use the children to hurt and control the spouse. Trauma and PTSD continue long after the court battles are over.

    What bothers me a lot is when people think and assume women stay in abusive relationships because they like the "make-up" sex. Having sex after abuse is just more abuse and sickening. Sex with someone who hurts you is appalling and disgusting. It is not fun or satisfying. Total confusion.

Decision making is very difficult need direction people to trust to work on our behalf There is lots of mistrust A jumpy hyper person, is toxic, who doesn’t allow you time to process answer There is triggers to battle already All four of them come All the common reactions, excessive talking from suppression isn’t there Vulnerability fear of exploitation or fear of you maybe talking to a faker not good person

    You would consider me bi, but I don't think it makes sense for all people. I have never met anyone that was the same gender as me, so doesn't make sense in my life. Hence I am pansexual, I am attracted to people regardless of gender. That actually reflects my life experience and I don't fall under bi. Some people consider pan to be under the bi umbrella, but I am a pansexual who is not bisexual.

    Dr. Campbell, You, Dr. MoBeen, the physicians who participate in the International COVID Summit & a few trusted others are a Godsend! It perplexes me as to how many Americans still do NOT know who Dr. Robert Malone & the FLCCC is...nor do they understand the risks of the mRNA vaccines, and the benefits of IVM and Vitamin D/K2 in the prevention & treatment of COVID-19, etc. They naively believe the narrative they've been fed since the get-go & look down upon those who don't accept it as truth. It's maddening! Offering to share the scientific data (research papers) with them does little good because most people don't have a background in science or medicine & don't have the humility to admit what they don't know, or the time/interest/focus to sit & listen to your videos, medical lectures & podcasts, etc. The censorship by big tech & lies/misinformation perpetuated by the pharmaceutical industry, govt & main stream ("legacy") media is anti-Constitutional & a stain on our nation. There is no integrity in that. It is ethically wrong to deny people of important information that could help them make lifesaving healthcare decisions for themselves & their loved ones. I am deeply disturbed by all of this, especially considering the long term effects of covid-19 and the mRNA vaccines & all the innocent people who suffered and/or died when they didn't have to. I have become so disenchanted by all of this that it's like Im a completely different person. I am a teacher. I think it was Maya Angelou who said, "If you know, teach." I feel responsible for sharing what I have learned to help people but don't know how to do that. The lies run so deep. Even people in healthcare STILL believe that IVM doesn't work & that the covid vaccines are safe & effective. I thank God for you, Dr. Campbell. Thank you for existing & for all of your helpful content! Peace be with you all. Let's hope & pray that the truth will stand on its own 2 feet.

    first time in 20 yrs I was not STALKED BY MY CITY. Some are still, but for the most part. something behind the scene happened, because they was stalking me as if I was a celebrity. I AM NOT, I AM HOMELESS living in and out of different places., this shit is tiring and I HATE IT. NOW, that whoever is helping me behind the scenes, they are mad as hell, ATTACKING ME VERBALLY ON THE BUS this morning. I can tell it was in retaliation, totally uncalled for the attack was so trivial. It must STOP. It must STOP, IT must STOP. I am not a celebrity, I am homeless, I am not making 1 penny for all this unwanted attention. JUST STOP. JUST STOP. when you see a crowd of people following one person, they are being stalked celebrity or not. DONT FOLLOW ME like that. It's gross and childish.

  • @NancyLopez-ny1ok

    Most what your saying is TRUE but WHAT IS THE SOLUTIONS. I've been homeless more than 20 yrs and yet, here I am asking for HELP AGAIN. I need a safe place that I can afford, where my OPPRESSORS CANT FIND ME TO SEXUALLY ABUSE and MANIPULATE me and the systems that are put in place to protect ME/US. SEND MORE HELP. I have a TH-cam channel and he/they/pedos/predictors are financially oppressing me so that I cant be self sufficient and have to be exploited online and off. I don't want to tell my story, I just want the order of protection to be active and get these people out of my face. I don't trust anyone, so many people are watching me get financially abused, sexually abused, emotionally abuse, and verbally abused. I AM A TARGET now that I am blowing the whistle. Send HELP. Order of Protection is NOT PROTECTING ME. HELP.

    Why nobody is there for me, when my ex husband is in our house again, even with a restraining order? Why I have nowhere to go? I can't even be with someone new, because they will be the same, violent, stealing, lying or worse, like cheating and violent, alcoholic, etc... There's no use to get married anymore. We only have suffering in this world. Only persecution and illness. When God is gonna answer me? What did I do wrong? And one last thing: I will never forgive him, no I won't. I stood in the cold outside on the street...
