    This incel stuff and the men on social media defending them are bothering the shit out of me. Being a woman is fucking hazardous because men are so obsessed with themselves and their own gratification they have zero regard for our humanity.

        I think I’m gonna check out for a bit ‘cos I need to ground myself. Feeling unsafe and vulnerable, but in reality I’m secure at home in the company of my kid. Can’t keep reading this stuff.

        Exactly. I think it’s exactly how my abuser justified his assaults on me. He wanted sex in a certain way & regardless of my humanity he was going to do it.

        Me too. I’m sorry, Amy. It’s a horrendous trauma to live with. I hope you’re doing ok this week. I’m finding social media a hard place to be. Think I’m gonna take a break.

        Wise. It’s often too difficult to read this stuff. I find the constant news coverage too much as well. I’ve come to the decision that it’s time to have some in depth therapy about my PTSD rather than just dealing with the anxiety through CBT.

        That’s brave of you. I hope you have some avenues to explore to get it.

        It’ll probably have to be private but I’ll carry on with the NHS CBT as I do find it practically useful but it’s not resolving the underlying trauma issues. It’s been 5 & a half years so I think I’m ready now.

        Best of luck with it. I’ve finally got a psychology assessment next week, very much hoping to get 1-to-1 therapy (for a whole host of reasons, not just this one!). Like you I’ve had CBT but it doesn’t really address the root of the problems.
