The last thing we should do is revictimize a person who is potentially being stalked. That's it for now, just lost two threads talking about this. But I know what bothered me the most is when I reached out for help and was ignored or ridiculed, and the perps knew. They were on my phones, TV, computers, etc, and I did not have the privacy to get help without them knowing. I swallowed my pride and took my chances--victtims should be made safe here. We will all analyze them in our own way much like we do now, and we may even discuss it amongst ourselves. Also our stories do sound a bit crazy, so a victim may be weary of sharing too much--nobody should have to prove themselves. They may be exhausted and have a hard time articulating their information. I know what my story sounds like and I know how difficult it is to explain it as well. We all seem comfortable sharing and their is an unwritten process that must be working.Did a victim was ever turn away because of someone's approach to this subject matter? I called the lawyer from Maine who is on television, Harvey Garod. He somehow answered, and I shared some info. Before I knew it, he asked me if I was the crazy bitch from Berlin, NH. I couldn't speak and I was devastated. I viewed him as a potential point of help or refuge and be had squashed me, so no I never explored civil avenues again. Of course it wasn't the lawyer, I know that now. The perps rerouted my calls, disconnected, or had strangers intercepting my calls. It was the same reality for me on my computer but I didn't know all of the pieces for a bit. So if I would have somehow made it here, first god bless you all, but secondly I would have viewed you as the only people that I could relate to, so if you would have chosen to alienate me, tell me where would a targeted individual then turn? If a victim of this crime is turned away by other victims, his chance of survival are damn low. A perp wouldn't last long here because he isn't intelligent enough, and because we victims are just and kind, the perp evil and cruel, he will oust himself. Here I go again, lets post this damn thread!
