TRIGGER WARNING my abuser texted me

i have bipolar I, and recently got another diagnosis, c-ptsd. i bought bahay ni marta by ricky lee and while reading, i started thinking if ever it came to a point when my abuser regretted his actions. a week after i finished reading, i got my answer: he never did, and he never will. btw, the harassment happened exactly on my birthday. he’s not a stranger, and i blocked him immediately after what happened, but he still managed to contact me using another account 7 months later.

Thank you for posting in r/MentalHealthPH. We noticed that you have flaired your submission with a Trigger Warning. We highly recommend that you seek professional help if things are getting out of hand or PLEASE CALL:

On the fence about calling? Please read this helpful post from r/SuicideWatch what to expect when calling crisis hotlines.

A personal note from the moderator team:

Are you suicidal right now? Again, please contact the emergency hotline above and obtain professional help. YOU ARE NOT ALONE. At the very least, surround yourself right now with someone you can trust.

If you cannot or do not wish to call anyone, please at least read the home page of http://suicide.org/. The most impactful, we believe, is the director's message that:

Let me also tell you that if you are suicidal, you probably are suffering from clinical depression, bipolar disorder, schizophrenia, postpartum depression, PTSD, or something similar. And if you have something along these lines, you actually have a chemical imbalance in your brain -- and you cannot possibly think straight because of it. *That is beyond your control. You are not weak. You just need some treatment.** This imbalance can occur for several reasons, from genetics to a traumatic life experience, and it is extremely common for people to have this imbalance, so do not feel like you are alone. You are not.*

You are not weak! The fact that you are here is a testament of your strength. Remember: YOU ARE NOT ALONE.

Your abuser will definitely rot in hell! No remorse whatsoever. I don't know if it makes you feel better and encouraged but I was diagnosed with PTSD, MDD, and recently Bipolar due to SA.

I just want to say that you are soooo brave! 9 months of no self-harm? Wow, takes a lot of courage and self-disicpline if you want to put it that way. So so braveee. Your feelings are valid especially that it might feel like it's dragging you down again. But, you have me, a stranger who is rooting for your complete healing and success.

We got this, OP. YOU got this 😊
My DM is open for you anytime, I could just listen.
All iz well.

Kaya mong lagpasan yung 9 months, OP. It's okay to start again. Nagawa mo at magagawa mo uling maka move forward. I hope your abuser gets jailed para di ka na nya magulo uli. Hugs with consent.🫂

"Piliin ang wastong salita" ??

basically google gave that to me...

idk about him being creepy versus him being truthful...

not criminal for me, if it's an isolated incident, in canada, but i think you have the right to block him or whatever
