Can’t wait to see what Season 2 of Common Side Effects has in store for us!

Reactive abuse - which I prefer to call reactive defense - is when a victim who has been suffering prolonged abuse fights back. It is done in self-defence or as a reaction to provocation, but abusers use the situation to further their abusive agenda.

Abuse isn’t always strict orders—it’s often the illusion of choice. They manipulate you into thinking you have a say, but constant criticism & emotional attacks push you to do what they want. It’s control without looking like control. Awareness is key to breaking free.

When in doubt, always choose YOUR memory, YOUR perception, YOUR beliefs! #gaslighting #emotionalabuse

Abusers tear you down behind closed doors, Then convince the world you were already broken. They provoke you until you react, Then tell others you are unhinged. They manufacture chaos, Then act like you’re the cause of it all. They know what they are doing. It is a calculated plan to dominate.

There’s a deep sorrow in looking back at an old version of yourself and wishing you had known better. The version of you who: Stayed too long in a relationship that hurt you. Silenced yourself to avoid conflict. Believed love had to be earned. It’s okay to grieve for the person you once were.

Abusers often frame their control as “helping” or “protecting” you. They’ll convince you that decisions they make—about your job, friends, or hobbies—are for your own good. It sounds thoughtful, but it’s really a way to keep you dependent and under their control.

If you’re asking how James Gunn is gonna make #CreatureCommandos work ILA-King Shark was the , “Remember this guy?” #kingshark
