Thank you for your difficult story and I’m glad you’re free! I’ve dealt with more than one such delicate man, and although they live in lies, they occasionally act out their threats. I understand that the point here is to stay confident and un-intimidated. We can’t afford to remain paralyzed in fear. But the damage they are willing to inflict (the damage trump is doing) is often real. So we need to rethink our fight/flight/freeze/fawn responses and keep moving.

In my personal interactions with folks during these tough times, many women are re examining how they are navigating extremists in their own circles.
