The Hour She Borrowed A Samantha Leary Short Story
In the world of Samantha Leary, control doesn’t always raise its voice. Ann begins to see how her life has been quietly narrowed at home, and how Samantha Leary’s message at Salvation’s Gate forces her to recognize what has been happening behind closed doors all along.https://wearewisethinkers.com/2026/04/21/the-hour-she-borrowed-a-samantha-leary-short-story/

Now we (as a society) have accepted the reality of coercive control in intimate (family) relations should we recognise that in reality such control is more widespread & needs to be (legally) confronted?
When the law was first proposed a wider scope was intended but narrowed by Theresa May's Govt. to get it passed, so perhaps now we have seen its identified a really clear problem, there should be a campaign to widen its scope?

Does #Melbourne #Australia have no community?
Seriously, the biggest problem I have in escaping #abuse #neglect #CoerciveControl is finding a volunteer to help with admin and a safe, quiet place to live. Every time I ask, NOBODY knows ANYONE. I am too sick to live with randoms & need recommendations, but nobody knows anyone?
In a city of 6 million??

If someone stays in an abusive relationship, it’s not because they’re weak —
it’s because the abuser made leaving terrifying, impossible, or deadly.💬 Survivors need support, not shame.

Despite some high profile successes in the prosecution of partners for coercive control, it appears (once again) many police forces are not getting it right on the ground - prosecuting the victims of conceive control for the actions they have bene forced into, rather than going after the perpetrators.
I'd like to say this is surprising, but its all too grimly predictable!

#CW: talk of abuse, control, and food.
This morning at breakfast my partner apologized for leaving the heel* of the bread loaf for me, and I was reminded of how much my ex used to control my eating.
*there was another loaf thawing, so I could have easily eaten that instead of the heel.
I used to get a "talking-to" for:
- eating the last of anything my ex might want.
- not eating the last of anything my ex didn't want.
- asking for things I wanted (like Swiss cheese**).
- cooking something for myself that they liked.
- cooking something for myself they didn't like.
- not cooking things just the way they liked.
- eating "too much".
- being "too thin".**earlier in my relationship with my current partner, while we were at the grocery store, they asked if there was any cheese I wanted. I said "I like Swiss" as I broke down crying, following up with "but I'm not really allowed to get it".
My current partner is amazing, and my ex is my ex for a lot of good reasons, and I'm happy-sad crying a bit this morning, and I just want anyone who this list resonates with to know they aren't alone—that's abuse, plain and simple—and you can get out too.
Here's some info on coercive control (just ignore the ad for BetterHelp, because fuck them):
