There was a client, schizophrenic, she has the right to stop taking her meds. We can't force them. However, eventually you will get kicked out of the program.

She stopped. Not my client, but she's in the program. One day she calls the cops on me, out of the blue. I get suspended. Lose a week of pay. I finally get interviewed. I have an alibi, so it's cleared up, sort of. I eventually get back to work. Guess what crime she accused me of?

Give up? I am the first man charged with being a solo gang rapist. Apparently, there were more then one of me, and all of me gang raped her. With no physical evidence. The did the rape kit. There was no evidence she'd even had sex. And yet, I still got charged and suspended.

And here's the kicker. A few months ago, a cop called me up and started asking odd ball questions, eventually asking for an alibi for such and such a date. Apparently, they keep a list of "accused but not convicted" and someone had given a description of "white male in their 40's". This is going to follow me the rest of my life.

I used to run a meal for the homeless and "I understand empty the ocean with a spoon"

My advice would be focus on the sucesses. My biggest one was getting a woman off Heroin

Not easy

it's 5 am and I'm way too drunk and bitter. Sorry for laying this bullshit on everyone.

No worries, gotta vent

Nah it's fine, you have to talk it off sometimes or it eats you up inside

There are people still out there I couldn't help in 4 years but I could help her and that's a win <:covfefe:440543908846632980>

but daily life is all DRAWS

nothing changes

Oh yeah, the new heroin-fentanyl is pure morality bleach.

That stuff is physically addictive on the first shot.

Sometimes we would get a LOSS eg: someone jumped off a bridge

but sometimes you get a WIN

I would tell people that if life was fair, that would suck.

Imagine a world where every horrible thing that happened to you was your own damn fault.

People who ask for the world to be fair actually want the world to be unfair, but just in their favor.

I like a quote from StarTrek TNg where Picard said to little punk Wesley: "You can do as hard as you can, prepare as much as you want and still fail. That's no unfair ... that' just life"

Then I see these women screeching at Senator Flake about how allowing Kavanaugh to join the SCOTUS is "sending a message" to all women everywhere and how unfair it is and I just want to blow my brains out. I won't. My survival instinct is too high, but fuck me how can these people be so narcissistic? The more I watch that guy, the more I wish he was running for president, not the Supreme Court.

Yes the whole Kavanaugh thing is a farce.

I was once asked "How many people you fed today do you think were genuinely hungry?" (It was a short session only 70)

I said "10 but I can only get to those people if I feed everyone that comes through the door"

Shut up wesley

The sad thing is, I've seen Ford's testimony and I have seen that behavior before. Her manerisms. Rhe way she seems to keep reverting to a child like state. The nervous laughter and sudden mood changes. That woman wasn't just groped. She is displaying all the body language of someone who was molested by a family member for years.

And judging by the time period, we have the problem that between puberty and age 25 there is an enzyme that "cleans up" old memories in your head. And given the way Explicit memories are stored in the human mind, if she was trying to block out the memories, she could have lost the knowledge of the person who did it to her. However the index "file" that allows one to reconstruct past memories is almost always intact. Thus it's entirely possible everything that happened to her did indeed happen to her, but now, 36 years later, she's reindexed the original memory to include Kavanaugh.

Didn't they do hypnosis with her ? This would mess it even up more.

She clearly believes what she is saying, but the truth is, it doesn't matter. Her belief doesn't matter. What matters is can we determine the truth? All evidence points to she has reconstructed the memory and inserted Kavanaugh. She made the mistake of sending in a letter to the Democrats who leaked it. Now this poor woman who clearly needs help has been dragged through this horrifying proceedure for short term political gain. For no other reason then to delay a nomination a week.

Hypnosis creates Implicit memories which are always complete fabrications. Hypnosis is a bunk science. Sort of like lie detectors.

And that's why both are not allowed in a court as evidence

rightfuly

This woman has real problems and the Democrats don't care about her at all. She's just a tool and I am just sick. I used to think there could be some middle of the road. I always try to be reasonable. But dammit, this is just so gut wrenchingly bad I wanna puke.

Not a single democrat elected offical has even HINTED that maybe, MAYBE this has gone a little too far.

That's the problem with all the shit right now, SJWs, feminism, the new extreme left, they all cry about those people they say they care about, but in the end, these people are just tools to them

to make money, to get what they want, to push a political agenda

it's politics 101

The crazy thing is, I don't think she was just "groped". Nobody has that set of symptoms who was groped one time at a party. Or she is the most fragile flower ever existed. No. She was sexually assaulted multiple times, more then likely over several years. I'd most likely was a family member, and that man, that fucked up horrible monster, is out there. And people like THAT don't just do this once.

And this isn't just off the top of my head. I've got a client who acts the same way she did on the stand in the program right now. And I've seen this type of reversion behavior several times before.

And that's the sad/infuriating part about it, she needs help but can't and perhabs never will get it, because she is now part of this ideoligical machine, that needs her as she is to further contnue on the way it goes and it is not allowed to stop

The funny thing is, I know exactly how to help her sort out the facts from fantasy. I've found in these cases, Spacial Awareness seems to be damn stable. You can usually help someone recall explicit memories that are fragmented by starting with the area where the event took place.
