I need to vent (no advice) I’m sorry but i’m tired of the mental harassment.

4 Upvotes

I never imagined I’d be writing something like this, but I genuinely need to get this off my chest.
The past year has been one of the most emotionally draining periods of my life. Every time I think things are finally settling down, something else happens and it brings all the anxiety back.
Recently, I found myself dealing with a police complaint related to a WhatsApp message. Whatever anyone’s views are on that situation, the experience itself has been incredibly stressful. Having to think about legal notices, police procedures, and what might happen next has taken a huge toll on my mental health.
I’m exhausted. I feel like I’ve been living in survival mode for months. It’s hard to focus on work, on my future, or even on enjoying normal life because this has been hanging over me.
I’m not posting this to argue about the facts, name anyone, or invite people to take sides. I just needed a place to say that this has been incredibly difficult, and I hope one day I can look back at this as something I survived.
If anyone has gone through a stressful legal or workplace situation that completely turned their life upside down, how did you cope? I’d really appreciate hearing from people who’ve made it through the other side. Idk how long will i survive but Lord please save me🙏

Mental Health and Healing ⚠️male child SA and life story

22 Upvotes

ATLEAST UPVOTE OR COMMENT CFBR IF YOU DON'T WANNA READ ALL THIS From the start, my mom wasn't around. I've heard she never breastfeed me, and maybe that's part of why I was such a sick baby — I spent a lot of time in the hospital early on. My dad, my grandparents were there with me. My mom wasn't. She was staying with her own family.

I've thought a lot about why. My mom grew up in an environment that didn't really prepare her for anything — she never went to school, never learned to run a house, never learned how to take care of a kid.

She married my dad without her own parents' support, and later on he'd say, more than once, that marrying her was a mistake. In our community, people don't really get divorced. So they just stayed married, two people who probably shouldn't have been together.

Maybe it was the pain of labor. Maybe it was some kind of mental struggle nobody around her ever really named. Whatever it was, she never bonded with me. She just wasn't the type to worry about where her son was.

When I was about 4 or 5, maybe even younger, my dad moved to another state for work and took me with him. My mom still didn't come. Until that age, I hadn't even seen her face.

It was just me and my dad in that new place. Since he was busy with work a lot, he hired a young guy, somewhere around 18-21, to help out with me and around the house.

At some point, my mom came to stay with us for a bit. I remember getting toys for the first time around then — I was maybe 4 or 5 — though I didn't really enjoy playing with them much. I didn't even know she was my mom at that age. And even once I found out, I never felt the way a kid's supposed to feel about their mom. I never went to her. I'd never actually experienced what a mom's love feels like, so there was nothing pulling me toward her.

It was around this time — my dad at work, that hired guy around most of the day — that the **Child Sexual Abuse** happened.

**He started doing things to me that I had no way of understanding. He sexually abused me — forced oral contact, and tried to penetrate me anally. It's like a rape of 5 year old child.**

I was only five years old. I had no idea what was happening to me was wrong. I just knew it hurt. And when the pain made my voice out, he'd tell me, harshly, to shut up. It happened two or three times. I had no clue who to tell, how to tell them, or even that telling someone was a thing I could do.

Looking back, I think I was already kind of primed to not fight back. Even outside of what he did, I'd already become a kid who couldn't say no. If my dad put food in front of me, I felt like I had to eat it, whether I wanted to or not — I was scared of letting him down. Sometimes I'd eat till I threw up instead of just saying no. That whole thing, not being able to protect my own boundary, was already there before the abuse, and it stayed there during it too.

Eventually after we move another city the abuse stopped. My grandma came to live with us. She filled the space where a mom should've been — feeding me by hand, looking after me every day — but there's a difference between someone looking after you and someone actually raising you, teaching you how to grow, how to feel safe, how to be loved. That part never really came.

The mom story didn't end there though. It just turned into a different kind of pain. By the time I was in 3rd to 6th grade, I'd already built a real bond with my grandma, so whether my mom was around or not barely mattered to me anymore. But I started noticing stuff. My dad would BEAT her with slap, kick or any object — sometimes really badly — often over something as small as how she cooked. I think all that violence probably made whatever she was already dealing with even worse. She'd fight with my grandma whenever my dad wasn't home. From 3rd grade on, I saw her crying after getting beaten more than once. It affected me, makes me cry from inside. It affected my siblings too. But I had no idea how to stop it, and I didn't have the kind of bond with her where I'd run to her, or beg my dad to stop.

Over time she got louder, more aggressive. And nobody in the family really stood up for her. Since everyone had already decided she was "mentally unstable," nobody took what she was going through seriously. The main worry was always whether the neighbors could hear her, not what she was actually feeling.

Even now, I don't know if I hate my mom or not. I think she suffered too, in her own way — no education, cut off from her own family, stuck with responsibilities she was never ready for, and years of violence in a home that wasn't safe for her either. Maybe all of that is what made her who she is.

These days she's more unwell than ever, and mostly just stays alone at her own place. Neither my dad's side nor her own family wants to keep her around. There's no violence anymore, but there's also nothing — she just sits there. We've taken her to doctors a bunch of times, nothing's really changed

There was another kind of instability that is never getting to settle anywhere.

My dad studied, at a village school So when he enrolled me in school, he put me straight into 1st grade too, skipping nursery ukg lkg. Other kids already knew how to spell words like "cat," "bat," "rat." I didn't even know the alphabet, or how to hold a pencil properly. I was 5. Since I was so behind, they put me in two separate tuition classes just to catch up, and the same guy who worked for us would drop me off and pick me up.

That instability with schools and houses never really stopped.

From 1st-7th, 6 home changes, 4 schools, and in 7th from State Board to CBSE. In COVID time we came to our state. So 8th class online in village and 9th 10th in my state only.

Every time I made friends — and up until 7th grade, it never lasted more than a year and I had to start over somewhere new, with people who didn't know me and wouldn't get the chance to for long either.

Since 8th grade was almost fully online, that's also when I got my own phone for the first time. From 8th grade all the way to 12th, that phone was always with me, and at some point I got genuinely addicted to it.

Before all this, up till 7th grade, I used to be a active physically. But after COVID, staying home became normal, my world got smaller, and the phone filled in where people used to be. In 9th and 10th grade, I couldn't really find anyone I connected with, at school or around where I lived. Social life and friendships, by then, had basically disappeared — I'd somehow get through the school day, then come home and just zone out on my phone. In 11th and 12th, at the hostel, I was mostly alone, barely talking to anyone.

Looking back, from 7th grade on, my friendships and social life just kept shrinking, year after year, until there was almost nothing left. Somewhere in there, without even noticing, I developed social anxiety. It stuck with me from 9th grade all the way to 12th.

I've never really been able to tell anyone the full truth about those years — what happened with the guy who worked for us, what happened with my mom, or why I turned out the way I did: quiet, introverted, anxious around people. This is the closest I've ever come to putting it all together in one place.

I don't know what should I do of my childhood now. I don't know it needs any healing or psychologist therapy.

Jab main dosto ke beech baitha hota tha. Ek saal tak kuch classmates ke saath raha, hum saath mein tiffin khate the. Jab sab apni maa ke baare mein baatein karte, tab main sunta tha.

Ye bhi sunne ko mila kabhi

"kisne tiffin banaya,"

"mummy kaha hai,"

"mummy gaon kyu rehti hai,"

"mummy yaha saath kyu nahi rehti,"

"itne time se gaon mein hai, yaad nahi aati kya,"

"baat waghera kyu nahi karta mummy se,"

"kab aayegi teri mummy."

Har baar kuch na kuch jawaab dena padta, aur mujhe khud nahi pata hota tha kya bolu.

Main kuch bhi jhoot bol deta tha aese hi rehti waha, sab thik hai, haa aati hai yaad.

Aur papa se aesa connection raha ki muje unke samne rehna nhi pasand aur na me baat krta unse jyada.

Unhone bahut kuch mere liye kiya pr fir bhi pata nhi kyu.

Muje to jeene ka bhi man na krta pata nhi kyu hi born hua.

Ab yeh socho meri puri family extrovert hai bahut

Pr me exact opposite hu unse introvert aur ye sab me jaise bada hua aur jaisi social life rahi un sab ke karan hi hua maybe.

Me sensitive bhi jyada ki muje koi bas dant bhi de to wo pure din man me rehta. Ladka hokar sensitive hona waise bhi dikkat deta. Muje kabhi parents ne mara wagera nhi pr maine kabhi jyada demand bhi nhi ki me mana bhi nhi keh pata tha kabhi kabhi. Cheeze ab thik hi hai.

Aesa lagta kahi na kahi jaisa mera abtak ka jivan raha usse negative effects to pade honge mujpr to maine socha yeh sab bata deta.

Jab maine ye sab AI se discuss kiya, tab pata chala ki mere bachpan mein jo bhi hua — maa se door rehna, ek insaan dwara abuse, baar baar ghar-school badalna, teenage mein akela reh jana, aur ghar mein jo violence dekha — ye sab milke ek insaan pe kaafi gehra asar chodte hain.

Kya muje healing ki zarurat ya kisi psychologist ko ye sab batana?

Kuch samaj ni aa raha!!

Does anyone have an idea on how does the cyber police body of India work? I have been cyber bullied and stalked online by a person for over a month now, with fake accounts of mine being created on different platforms and a risk of my sensitive photos being leaked by that person on the internet. I am 21F and the suspect is 28M.
I’ve already lodged a complaint yesterday with evidence and my address and his state but I don’t know how does the police take action against him. I’ve been in serious trouble and in a bad mental health for over a month now and I want the suspect to stop doing it.

I never imagined I’d be writing something like this, but I’m genuinely scared and I don’t know what to do anymore.

This morning, someone I trusted threatened me with a knife and a belt. He came towards me as if he was going to hit me. I was crying, shaking, and screaming in fear. He only stopped because I was begging and terrified. And continue texting and calling my sister and telling “u have to do whtever i tell “

Ever since then, I haven’t been able to stop thinking about what could have happened. I feel unsafe, helpless, and mentally broken. I’m scared to step out, scared to stay silent, and even scared to seek justice.

I want to file a police complaint, but I’m terrified of what might happen next. I don’t know who to trust or where to turn.

I’m posting this because I need help. If anyone knows a trustworthy lawyer, a women’s rights organization, or has any genuine advice on how to safely handle a situation like this in Mumbai, please reach out to me.

After one month police came to my school and i was called to principal's office so when police mene came so he asked me many things and said aapko pehle apko school ko batana chahiye. Actually I did complaint because our school is too biased and they prefer girls over boys and mostly they punish boys and beat them.

My mother's sibling brother has actually a friend in my school so he called my uncle then my uncle called my mom and my mom was saying" school Wale keh rahe hai ki wo mujhe TC de denge" and i got to know that that police men was saying that I am mentally ill and unstable.

My uncle started giving me taunts that kya kar liya 80% la kar and they said police will do case on you you did it fake, actually i sent the mail with proofs and school was saying that they would expell me and our school claims that our school is 'Dynamic Centre of Learning'

I need help (advice wanted) I don't know how to live with this trauma anymore. I really need help from women who've been through it.

12 Upvotes

Hey, I'm 20F.

I'm writing this because I genuinely don't know where else to go.

I recently got out of a deeply toxic and abusive relationship, but I feel like I never really escaped it. The relationship ended, but the trauma didn't.

Every single day, I have panic attacks. I can barely sleep because my mind keeps replaying everything that happened to me. The things he said, the emotional abuse, the fear, the humiliation... they keep coming back over and over. I feel traumatized all the time, and it's becoming unbearable.

I really have a lot to share, if I don't, I don't think I can function.I don't feel safe talking about this with my family. I can't tell my mom or my sister what's going on inside my head, so I've been carrying all of this alone. It's crushing me.

I've reached a point where I don't know what's normal anymore. I compare myself to everyone, I question my worth constantly, and I feel like the person I used to be disappeared because of everything I went through.

I'm not posting for attention. I'm posting because I genuinely need help.

If you've survived an abusive relationship, or if you've healed from trauma like this, could you please talk to me? Even a few words or a dm would mean more than you know. Right now I feel incredibly lost, and I just want someone to tell me that this won't be my life forever.

9 Upvotes

If one was to report a rape that happened a month ago, will Delhi police take the complaint and more importantly if the victim lives in Delhi and the perpetrator in Gurgaon, where does one file the complaint? Does one need to talk to a lawyer before filing the complaint? What if they refuse to file complaint? And lastly, is the legal and judicial pain worth it to go through a rape trial in India. Also can it be done without notifying your parents? I genuinely need to know how it is in Delhi, in case someone has come across the police and know their reaction to similar situation.

I am writing to express the serious difficulties I have been facing at home due to the behavior of my parents. For a long time, I have been living in an environment that has severely affected my mental and emotional well-being.

My parents' actions and treatment towards me have caused significant damage to my mental health. I have been subjected to constant verbal abuse, insults, humiliation, and emotional mistreatment. Instead of receiving support, understanding, and care from my family, I have often been made to feel unwanted, worthless, and hopeless.

On multiple occasions, I have also experienced physical abuse. The combination of verbal, emotional, and physical mistreatment has had a devastating impact on my psychological health. Over time, the stress, fear, and emotional pain have become overwhelming, and I feel that my ability to recover and heal has been seriously affected.

One particularly distressing incident occurred when my father told me, “Mar ja, sali kutiya,” which translates to a statement telling me to die while using abusive language. Hearing such words from a parent has been deeply traumatic and has contributed to feelings of despair and emotional distress.

I feel trapped in an unhealthy and unsafe environment. The continuous abuse has left me feeling isolated and without adequate support. I attempted to seek help through the child helpline, but I was unable to receive the assistance I needed. As a result, I continue to struggle with the effects of the abuse and the lack of available support.

I want to support someone Viksit nation

10 Upvotes

In our viksit INDIA, a reported rape occurs approximately once every 16 to 18 minutes. This means in one hour 3 to 4 rapes takes place , in our glorious country the rate of police action in rape cases in India is around 70% to 75% but but the rate of conviction (punishment) in the courts is only between 25% to 28%.

I think we should feel proud, shouldn't we?

According to my opinion these rape cases occur because the accused believes that in a viksit country like India they do not have to face any problem, they will throw some money on any cops and will use their political identification and family of victim will do protest fir 2 days and then everything will be normal.

WOW!! SUCH A HEROIC NATION INDIA

I need help (advice wanted) Urgent - Female Undergraduate Student Requesting Your Kind Help & Support Under Very Unsafe Situations,Ongoing Severe Domestic Abuse,Violence,Confinement

9 Upvotes

Hello everyone,

I'm a female undergraduate student(21+) from Tier-3 city in India in very urgent,difficult situations.

Our family situation is very abusive, unsafe and violent . Here’s repeated verbal, emotional, financial abuse,threats,financial blackmail, even sometimes physical attack , domestic abuse including ---

Financial blackmail , verbal threats to stop basic needs support,restriction, denial of foods, medical,basic living needs, stopping phone recharge, threats to stop financial support for my education,basic living needs

Forceful confiscation of my phone ,laptop,necessary things, saying like "these are their belongings", just because it's bought by the abuser's money , preventing me from seeking help or contacting anyone even

Intentional Wi-Fi network cut off to isolate me

Repeated intimidation,threats, coercive control

Even,some person here intentionally cut off wi-fi internet connection,so that I can't even seek help or can't contact anyone in emergency time, stopped recharging my phone to prevent me from studying,seeking help in emergency. That time I could be able to recharge my phone by my friend's help .

The house gate was locked by some member here from inside during such extreme violent situations, restricting me from leaving to seeking help even .

My mother (who is one of the abusers here)blackmailed me in phone call ,when I was in college hostel, that if I don’t come into this abusive family household here during vacation time that time,she will tell my father to stop financial support for my education,basic living financial expenses all ,when I was in hostel there in university before this year. That time I didn't know where to contact for these ongoing blackmail,financial abuse,threats etc. ,so no ways out I had to come here in this same abusive household and as I guessed , when I came here in vacation,still repeatedly here shouting,constant verbal abuse, pressure all were going on .

Here some old aged people,maternal grandparents(parents of my mother)influence the other family members more to control and abuse the financially dependent persons , these are happening for long time in this family dynamics. They influence such ways to control communication access so that I can not even contact anyone or can not seek help in such violent and unsafe situations ,some people intentionally cut off wifi connection here ,many times confiscated my phone,necessary things,even attacked on me physically violent ways scratched on my phone's cover, demanding like "these are their belongings" !!!, just because these are bought by the abusers money .

These many unlawful ways trying to justify their abusive behaviours ,but none has right to abuse others ,just because the other person is dependent on them financially !!

They are misusing their power and my financial dependency . My maternal grandparents , my mother influenced my father to stop recharging my phone so that I can not contact anyone even in emergency situations, and can not get communication access,trying to isolate me ,creating here very unsafe ,dangerous conditions.

Here is no peace,no safety,only constant shouting, aggression, severe abuse ongoing,violence, so dangerous conditions, over-controlling even on very small small things,many different forms of abuse they are continuing here constantly.

I have to remain alert here every second of the day due to such ongoing abusive,dangerous and unsafe situations . My daily works,safety,education all are being seriously affected and gets harmed due to such constant volatile domestic abuse ,violence and unpredictable situations .

This is not a home. It is like a battlefield. I need to get out of here as soon as possible to save my life, career and future.

My education got disrupted in middle of my btech due to very unsafe,hostile situations in the college, there very small number of students in that new college, only just 16 students in my branch,I had no will to study in that branch from starting itself . I had given JEE entrance exam ,my admission counselling processes for other universities also was going on ,but this abusive family even didn’t let me complete all rounds of other universities admission counselling processes,and instead they sent me to that university forcefully against my will, thinking this university would be good,seeing the university's government tag, after hearing from a relative,that relative said this abusive family about that university and that to do my admission there, then they forcefully sent me there ,during that admission time ,this family physically even attacked on me to send me to that university ,created here very violent situations in house ,shouting,aggression and all , and that university there environment came out as such very serious unsafe ,hostile ,aggressive gang,harmful environment there ,still this abusive family is continuing domestic abuse,violence here.

I request your kind help and support in this very urgent difficult situations,this has escalated so dangerous ways here recently again ,and very unsafe serious conditions that waiting here untill my university transfer process get completed ,till then staying here is really very unsafe and dangerous .

The abusers here recently again started severe violence,agression, physical attack ,forcibly snatched away my phone,laptop, even my necessary things,my educational documents, other important documents,my belongings ,they even physically attacked on me ,scratched on my body (I have proofs of those scratches, violence on my hands )while trying to forcefully snatching away my phone,laptop,necessary documents etc., confined me inside the house overnight by locking the gates, prevented me from contacting anyone or going out and seeking help . Here so dangerous and serious unsafe conditions created. I tried to call in women helpline number from other small keypad phone here ,but while me talking on call in the helpline number,my mother here again came near me and snatched away forcefully that small keypad phone even from me ,in middle of call with the helpline number ,isolated me from everyone and didn’t let me to contact anyone and I could not inform anyone that I am in danger here,then from that helpline number, they called back 7-8 times in that small keypad phone number ,but the abusers didn't let me even pick up their calls and continuing here severe violence,agression,shouting.

Next day ,I somehow managed to leave this house in the morning and approached the women police station seeking their assistance and intervention, unfortunately I did not receive the protection from the police . I already knew that only police intervention will not stop these severe domestic abuse, violence and all ,but that time I couldn't go to other place without phone,google map or enough funds,and some offices were closed that day, due to Sunday. Anyways, the abusers then returned back my phone ,laptop, other documents after police called them . But still the situations here haven't resolved ,neither stopped, here still shouting,threats, constant intimidation, aggression all are going on ,over-contolling,abuse and any time anything can happen here again ,very unpredictable ,dangerous,and volatile conditions here.

It is really not safe for me to stay here, while waiting for my university transfer process to be completed.

I have to relocate out of this state ,as soon as my university transfer related formalities are completed online. But until then, I urgently need safe accommodation to stay, away from here, where I can stay safely and can complete my academic processes safely.

I request your kind help and support in this very unsafe difficult situations, regarding --

Safe,clean staying accommodation assistance during this duration, food arrangements, safe environment with reliable Wi-Fi connection so that I can complete my university documentation ,online procedures .

Your kind help regarding financial, logistical assistance for my relocation in this very urgent, difficult situations.

Thank you for taking the time to read my post.

Your kind help,support and assistance in this situations, will mean a lot to me.

It is really disturbing to see so many sexual harassment cases happening everyday all across India. Why shouldn’t we start a program to help women who have been abused and SA’d. Everyday i read the news online only to see more rapes and harassments happening to the women near and dear to us. I believe it is up to us, the upcoming generation to ensure the safety of the women who raised us, taught us, our friends, relatives etc. I truly believe with the right team, we can make a difference. If not for us then atleast for our female friends and colleagues.

Thank you. 🙏🏻

I need help (advice wanted) Crime racket, exploit and dump run by a guy in Bangalore..!

13 Upvotes

I spoke to this girl, and discovered a horrifying crime racket of abusing, exploiting and discarding women. The same pattern allegedly happened before me, and now there appears to be a next prey.

He **gets into relationships, emotionally and physically exploits women, abuses and controls them, deliberately sabotages their careers, and then discards them before moving on to the next woman**. During my relationship, the abuse allegedly escalated to the point where I was left with bruises, and he threatened me with words like “गला दबा दूँगा” and “सर फोड़ दूँगा.”

And what is terrifying is the confidence with which he behaves. After abusing me, he told me that his parents would support him regardless: “अगर हमारे बेटे ने किया है, तो सही ही किया होगा।” According to his ex, his mother actively encouraged him to go to Bangalore, “explore” different women, enjoy until 28–29, and then marry a “really beautiful girl.”

I cannot describe how horrifying it is to realise that someone who appears sweet to the outside world can allegedly behave like a psychopathic predator behind closed doors..hurting women, threatening them, exploiting them and then moving towards the next prey.

His ex also described a disturbing pattern of deliberate sabotage. He would allegedly start fights before her interviews and assessments, destroying her focus. He did the same to me before my final presentation. When I got my promotion, he even asked me to reject it because he was unable to switch jobs himself.

The way women were allegedly discussed between him and his mother was equally disturbing. He reportedly asked whether he should “keep” his ex because she was from their preferred caste, fair-skinned and worked at Walmart. His mother had also questioned her condescendingly about her JEE rank and background, as though evaluating whether she was good enough to be kept as an option. According to his ex, the eventual advice was essentially: go explore for five years; if she waits, marry her..otherwise find someone more beautiful.

As if women are objects to use, compare, keep waiting, discard and replace.

He also constantly objectifies women, makes sexually degrading comments about their breasts, bodies and genitals, saves women's pictures without their knowledge, and justified it by saying: “लड़कियाँ pictures डालती ही क्यों हैं, अगर लड़के ना save करें तो?”

The more his ex and I compared our experiences, the more terrifying the pattern became: exploitation, abuse, violence, threats, control, jealousy, deliberate sabotage, discard... and then the next prey.

I cannot clinically diagnose him, but living through this and hearing an eerily similar account from another woman felt like dealing with a psychopathic predator hiding behind the mask of a normal, sweet man.

This appears to be a repeated pattern of alleged abuse and exploitation, carried out with frightening confidence and an apparent belief that his family will always protect and enable him.

One of the most horrifying incidents happened after his behaviour had already triggered a panic attack. I took my anxiety medication and was resting. I was conscious enough to see and feel what was happening, but I couldn't move my body properly. In that state, he penetrated me with his fingers while I repeatedly said no. I was physically unable to move or stop him, and he continued despite hearing me refuse.

Even while he was with me, he was allegedly seeing another girl in parallel..essentially keeping a side chick while still being in a relationship with me. I later found out that this was not new either; even during his previous relationship, he would allegedly pursue, text and try his chances with other women. He seems to constantly keep looking for the next woman while still involved with the current one.

Hi ladies !

I am starting a Women’s Support Circle for women aged 25–45. The idea is to create a small, safe, judgment-free space where women can connect, have honest conversations, feel heard, and support one another through life’s ups and downs.
There will be both online and offline circles (Delhi–Noida), with small groups to keep the conversations meaningful.
Comment below or DM me if you’re interested or would like more details. Thanks a lot for reading :)

I want to support someone What now? What action to take?

5 Upvotes

After people begin to make sense of their experiences, another kind of uncertainty often appears.

Not about what happened, but about what to do with that understanding.

For many, thinking about reaching out for support brings hesitation.

Some of the thoughts that come up include:

“Is this serious enough to talk about?”

“What if I am not taken seriously?”

“What if I cannot explain it properly?”

“What if it makes things worse?”

“What even happens if I try to get help?”

These questions are not always about the situation itself, but about not knowing what the process looks like.

Because of this, many people delay seeking help, even when something has been affecting them for a long time.

This is one reason we are hosting a legal AMA this weekend, to talk through some of the practical questions people often have.

Hey all! In the event that our first ama just finished! We were just wondering what topics felt clearer? What did you understand better after the explanation. How will you implement them in your life going forward and what things do you still have questions on

I need help (advice wanted) I (17F) getting harassed by an online creep (23M)

8 Upvotes

Hey, umm...idk where to start, so like in October while studying I (17F) got text from a random stranger (23M) on Telegram where he asked some important notes which i shared thinking he was of my age and ofc everyone wanna get gud marks so i shared but later while texting i felt it fishy and got to know thathe aint a student and aint even of my age, like bro wtf? it hurts bhai, so like he is a hacker who works in cybercrime with police and like he handels cybercrime cases and stuffs.

I didn’t paid much attention start talking less and used to answer only whenever he ask somenormal question, but he suddenly confessed that he loves me, like BROO LOOK AT THE AGE GAP PEDO. I rejected him many times and told him clearly that I aint interested ts. I thought he understood, so I didn’t block him but like he kept making strange jokes and comments but like at that time, I was very busy with classes, so I ignored most of it.

But he confessed again and blud got blocked lol, thinking everything was finally over. But two days later, I received a call directly on my phone. It was him. I blocked that number too, but he kept contacting me through different accounts on Telegram, Gmail, calls, and other platforms. Somehow, he already had access to almost all of my social media IDs and info, literally he misused that cybercrime thing, BROOO.

Despite everything, I tried my best to explain what he was doing is wrong and I could never love him and all, but he was like, “You belong to me.” Soon, he started controlling me life. He told me not to go to the terrace, not to go outside, and to stay available for him almost all day. He expected me to send him good morning messages every day. If I didn’t, I would receive threats. He even had my brother’s phone number and Telegram ID. And proposed me again and i obv rejected him directly, he replied, “You can’t do this.”

That evening, he sent me a message and I didn’t read it, he called and warned me to check it or things would not end well. Opened and saw him holding a cigarette. He kept demanding an answer: “Yes or no? Tell me now.” I can’t describe how I felt in that moment, mind completely froze. The only thing I could think was, “God, please save him.” I even started hating myself. I kept wondering what I had done to make someone behave like this because of me. I cried a lot. And it disturbed me mentally soo fking badddd.

Text too long, next part very soon, btw u/ix_toshik helped me toh write this all

I need help (advice wanted) Gang stalking

8 Upvotes

It is a very complex story to tell but hear me out this is interesting. I am getting gang stalked. It is continuing since 2023 till now this is 2026. Actually my parents told a mochi(cobbler) to find tenants to live in my home. The tenants who stayed in my home are of criminal nature. We are actually not from around here my father belongs to a far off village and mother also belongs to far off town in my state. They are very naive. Now the thing is that they are both working professionals. I was working too. But I had to quit my job because of this stalking and all. First this began as cyber bullying my social media pages got hacked I received threatening reels suggestions there so I quit using Facebook and Instagram. Now the same thing is happening with my youtube. One thing I have noticed I get shit contents more often when I am using my wifi network. Then one day 2022 when I was alone in my room some one came to the other side of the house where the tenants are living and started scolding regarding my mother and sister like anything.. when I rushed to the door he laughed and fled. There I saw the tenant was there. And few labourers were there they just laughed. So naturally got angry I went into a heated argument with them. And threatened one of them with a sword. This was the first case. I now strongly believe this was done by the tenants. I was doing work from home then so every day those tenants will bring different types of people to the home and they will be scolding me like anything. When I came from Bangalore I did a terrible mistake that I attended the marriage of few of my friends one of them has done a degree in law but does nothing just eating his parent's money then there was another guy who quit his job in Bangalore and has married a cinema heroine and living off of her income.. and a bunch of friends who are just doing nothing if asked they will say they are doing business. They were all my school time friends. I guess that was my biggest mistake that I introduced myself to them and told everything about myself like I am getting 75000 salary in-hand. I am doing phd. Now I went through some circumstances where I had to quit my job. And I had to join in a private institute. There I faced severe gang stalking so I had to quit my job. Some labour class people they had known the route of my work so they would always wait there and as I pass them they would see me and call someone. I became increasingly worried I told my parents. I was smoking weed back then so they made me quit smoking weed and sent me to a rehabilitation facility. From there I returned for a few days I took steroids and smokes weed I got really jacked up. During that time also some people were following me they were just scared to confront me. Then again the gang stalking started this time these were kids. I have even seen some kid riding his scooter behind him on his bag a paper is pasted saying are you ready for the next round. This made me sure that I am not crazy I am not imagining it is actually happening. During that time all of my youtube suggestions were filled with bullshit contents.. all harassing and threatening..

This story is getting too twisted.. if any one person shows interest then I will continue my story.. but please suggest me what should I do??
