No, fuck this, and fuck you.
You blocked, and that’s fine. I’m not interacting. But I’m not about to be fucking silent about this either, because THIS IS HARMFUL TOO. WHAT THE FUCK?!
And now I’ll zoom in for anyone asking How:
Having NPD doesn’t give you the right to gaslight abuse survivors. This is literally what I mean when I tell y’all that you are telling us what we went through doesn’t exist. Because that is exactly what you’re doing right here. “Just using a word in a clinical setting,” is YOUR assumption of one example I gave. Where btw I specifically stated that there are books on this term by people who research it- Guess whaaattt? FUCKING CLINICALLY!!
Calling me the harmful enemy and blocking me doesn’t erase that from existing, and it doesn’t erase the harm your own words will cause to abuse survivors if you continue to act like this form of abuse doesn’t exist.
Because IT DOES FUCKING EXIST!! It’s literally the thing y’all want us to call COMPLEX ABUSE. That’s what it fucking is. It’s the same exact set of abuse behaviors from almost ALL types of abuse. So for one, telling people it doesn’t is just as harmful to survivors, and for two, if you just act like it doesn’t exist anymore, then where the fuck was all that harm in the first place? You’ll end up only minimizing and trivializing the exact fucking thing you want acknowledged by changing the term’s name!
You’re genuinely only hurting us both. None of this response is helpful. Calling the form of abuse I continue to survive “Just abuse,” isn’t fucking helpful either. Because it’s not. “Just abuse.” It’s complex abuse. That’s the whole fucking point of there being a term that we’re trying to change the name of in the first place.
And most importantly: Telling me the form of abuse I go through isn’t real, doesn’t fucking make the word we already have to type in to get our treatment shit to pull up just magically not exist yeah? So stop this already. It isn’t the way we solve this fucking issue.
Just like it wouldn’t be helpful for me to tell any of my autistic siblings that Asperger’s doesn’t exist, because it does. It is still being diagnosed. I couldn’t solve that issue by calling everyone who still needs to use it to have their own fucking treatment harmful and ableist, even though I am still being harmed by it, as an autistic person. That’s just not going to get me anywhere, and it’s not advocating for me to do so.
