What these people are doing is gaslighting. Let's say for the benefit of the occasion that Doc did express care and love to you behind scenes. Now, obviously you'd love and express that love and care in reciprocity. So it's only natural to post an occasional "I miss you," post. Nothing criminal in that. What's cruel and unusual is how these people are attempting to gaslight you into thinking he doesn't care about you, and then forcing you into showing the evidence he said this. They're cornering you, backing you into a wall, and getting in your face and screaming at you. This is a form of emotional and psychological abuse and manipulation that's akin to a domestic abuse relationship, like when a partner would isolate another from loved ones by convincing them that a loved one hates them or sees them negatively.
What these people are doing is sick and twisted. If you say you have evidence, I believe you. I'm proud of you for keeping your promise to Doc, even with this verbal assault from others. This is just cruel and disturbing.
Thank you ππππ
I only have screenshots so I could look back on the conversation when I'm sad and missing him. Because I need a reminder that he cares after everything these people have said and done cuz well yea gaslighting. It's been a lot. I hope he's ok but my stomach hurts. I hate that all I did was dare mention missing him and caring about him and that was enough to warrant this verbal abuse about how he thinks I'm gross or whatever.
I'm grateful that my therapist last week told me otherwise judging by the evidence of the conversation. I hold our conversation very close whenever this gas lighting happens. I really wish I could talk about it because it was one of the sweetest conversations with someone I've ever had as far as an amends.
I won't share the details obviously but. It was very sweet. It was very kind. It was very loving. And I hold it very close and I just hope I'm making him proud. Miss him everyday. And that conversation gave me hope for my future. Give me hope that it'll get better.
