287. "Lily" - Pt 1 of 2 Pts - Survivor of Gaslighting and Despicable Abuse
The mission of this podcast is to allow survivors of dating abuse and domestic violence to speak their truth about what they experienced. We do this with very little editorial censorship.
This survivor story comes with warnings about severe physical violence. The depictions are disturbing and can be triggering to some listeners.
In part one, of a two-part story with Lily and Sam, you will hear about strange happenings too weird to explain.
When listening to the story, you may be tempted to judge Lily for the unfortunate choices she made. But, having listened to many of these stories, I urge you to keep in mind that abusive offenders are predators and, over time, they become masters of manipulation over their prey.
Lily was caught up in something she did not recognize for what it was. This is Lily's story part one of two parts.
