I have founded a group for abuse survivors (of past or present abuse) and those who question whether they were or are experiencing or witnessing abuse or coercive control or undue influence or someone is using power over them and retaliating against them when they don't "behave".

I myself survived childhood sexual abuse, incest, abuse by a cult, my therapist, psychiatry nurses, sibling, friends, queerplatonic partner/girlfriend, roommate and harrassment from a nazi neighbor plus landlords. I kinda got a bad start to life (in germany) and then people tended to make it worse instead of helping me or they took advantage of me.

So I learned a lot about what does and doesn't help!

And I want to help you out, whether you went through something you fear no one will believe or be able to stomach hearing about, or you think it was probably nothing and you overreact. You don't overreact! Nothing is too small to be worth talking about.

I'm making a space to have a warm, supportive, good vibes atmosphere that we co-create together. We'll help each other grow and see through confusions and distortions of the truth and gain more agency, to make choices, decisions and do stuff and have an impact on the world.

We'll also have fun and laugh and cry and eat cookies and discover what it's like to argue with someone who doesn't slice you to ribbons emotionally.

Anyone is welcome regardless of age, gender, ability, neurotype, location or background. I just ask that you help make the group a good space, be that by complaining when everyone else is too polite to say anything or by listening or by sharing. Please don't worry that by joining you'll take up too much space or take resources away from someone who might need them more — you ARE our space and our resources!

The first step is, once we have at least a handful of people, to decide when and how often to meet.
I use @delta delta chat for its privacy and because it works with spotty internet and very little tech knowledge. It works on desktop and mobile. You can download the app from google's or apple's appstore or FDroid or their website delta.chat (watch me not get the preview to work)
It was super easy to make an account and didn't require anything other than a username - no phone number or email address (or password).

DM me for an invite, which is a link that you click to join the group. The group is invite only to keep out spam and abusers.

Meine Tochter ist gerade ein paar Besorgungen für mich machen.

Hab ihr vorhin noch geschrieben, sie möchte mir noch eine Tafel Milka mitbringen.

Macht sie nicht. Wenn ich sowas will, soll ich es mir selbst holen.

Mein binge-gesteuertes Hirn ist mega sauer. Mein wahres Ich ist ihr sehr dankbar :herz:

Eating disorder group pulls #chatbot sharing diet advice

A #UnitedStates organization that supports people with eating disorders has suspended use of a chatbot after reports it shared harmful advice.

The National Eating Disorder Association (#Neda) recently closed its live helpline and directed people seeking help to other resources, including the chatbot.

The AI bot, named "Tessa," has been taken down, the association said.

You can eat all the calorie free, sugar free, fat free, guilt free food and what you'll eventually figure out is what's not free is you. You're trapped in #dietculture and you're scared of peanut butter.

(By the way…if you’re allergic to PB you’re allowed to be scared of it, this isn't about that.)

January 31, 2009: I didn't eat.
It felt so freeing that I didn't eat for over 3 weeks. My organs were beginning to shut down.
Every February I reflect back on this period and am eternally grateful that I had friends willing to support me through my first step toward recovery.
The last week in February is national eating disorder awareness week. If you or someone you care about is showing signs of having an eating disorder say something. Ask for help.

👋 Hi! Here's a new #introduction with more #hashtags! I'm an #education and #youth #policy #advocate and #freelance #consultant living in Northern #Virginia, #USA. I am a macro-practice #MSW and I conduct policy #research and #analysis, develop strategies and programs, and build successful #advocacy #campaigns. I'm most interested in work that addresses root causes of injustice and promotes #innovation to increase #equity. I'm fiercely #progressive but love doing #bipartisan work that serves the greater good. I'm active in my community as a part-time #substituteteacher #NAACP member, and #publicschools #parent. I'm proud to be #Jewish and of my bicultural/ #bilingual upbringing in #Italy and #Iowa. I love #puns #dadjokes and other forms of stupid #humor. Obsessed with :ablobcatattentionreverse: #cats :ablobcatattention:. At some point you will get tired of me telling you that I went to #SmithCollege #womenscollege. I usually have a #podcast #audiobook or #music in my ear, in particular #Americana #Pop #SingerSongwriter #Folk #FolkRock. I am here to support you if you are struggling with #PostPartum #anxiety #depression and other #mentalhealth challenges, #eatingdisorder or were diagnosed with #adhd as an adult because I have been there/am there, too. Keep scrolling if you're a TERF or antisemite, if you voted for TFG, if you think we should teach xtian nationalist propaganda in school in lieu of honest history, or if you can't resist saying "aLL liVEs MaTtER" when you hear #BlackLivesMatter because I will block you if you spew that hateful shit on my timeline.

👋 i’m a 28yo disabled queerean woman trying to crowdfund for my survival fund bc of increases in essential bills, decreases in benefits (😪), & bc in the midst of all this i still can’t work in my current state of health.

you see 7yrs ago i had 2 near-fatal attempts, a month apart, that resulted in a 3-day coma, 2 traumatic involuntary stays & 6mo later i was sexually assaulted. all of which resulted in ptsd which combined w/my chronic pain, adhd, eating disorder, & severe treatment-resistant depression made going to my undergrad classes nearly impossible. i ended up going from a scholarship-winning, 4.0 gpa student to a student who was academically dismissed bc she couldn’t even leave her apt or read a few pages of schoolwork. luckily with some hard work on treatment & explaining my circumstances with my college, i was able to reenroll for the fall semester right before the pandemic started 💀 anyways, that & issues w/medicaid that caused major setbacks in treatment & recovery progress.

since then, i’ve been trying real hard to get my health/wellbeing back to a state where i am recovered, manage my chronic health issues & can study again to pursue my degrees.

PLS donate &/or boost to help me raise $$$ for my survival fund ♡ no amount is too small & i wouldn’t be begging like this if i didn’t need to 😔
