People typically don’t “go crazy” or have nervous breakdowns for no reason. The narrative of someone "going crazy" is often a tool used by abusers to deflect accountability and discredit their victim. What appears to be erratic behavior is usually a trauma response—a culmination of long-term psychological manipulation, gaslighting, and emotional abuse.
The victim may seem "unreasonable" or "unstable" because their nervous system is overwhelmed, often swinging between fight, flight, freeze, or fawn responses. Abusers exploit this, painting the victim as the problem to maintain their control and avoid scrutiny. It's a cruel tactic that isolates the victim further and obscures the true cause of their distress. Recognizing this dynamic is crucial for understanding the reality of psychological abuse and offering genuine support.

People can be perfectly comfortable with you when they underestimate you. The moment they realize you’re intelligent, self aware, and know your own worth, their attitude changes. Suddenly, they start looking for subtle ways to bring you back down.

Keep your whole life lowkey and let people assume incorrectly. My biggest flex is that nobody ever knows what’s really happening in my life, where I am, who I’m with, or my next move unless I choose to reveal it. Anything they say is just an assumption. Privacy is power. Privacy is my luxury. Privacy is my peace. So private, that if you know my business, I know who told you.
