Power outage again...

Apr 27, 2007 16:48


I've been up since, oh, 5:20am this morning.

Not only does this piss me off, but I lost power, and was forced to spend an hour in the dark with no music, sounds, or anything. Can we just say nightmares?

That was not the kind of wake-up call I had in mind. I was up 30 mins prior to relaxation and a full hour before I even attempt being a live human ( Read more... )

A little known fact is that parts of what Lisa goes through in the 'Obsession' series actually happened to me. I wasn't even aware of it when I was writing it. The funny thing was that 'Obsession' was born out of what was happening and I didn't even know what was happening.

I spent the last eight or nine years being abused by my brother-in-law. I was the only person he had completely fooled. I always stood up for him and rationalized his behavior. I let him decide what I should wear, how my hair should be, etc. (much like Jackson in "On Your Mind"). You could also make a case that he stalked me.

Much of what Jackson does in 'Obsession' or how his mind works is based off what I suffered. Like Lisa, I was clueless and I forgot what happened to me.

As for the rape, you could say no, he didn't, but at the same time it was an intention and he came as close to it as you can without doing it.

He was posessive and easily angered just like Jackson in 'Obsession'. He frowned on my friendships and relationships with other guys. He ran my life without me noticing it.

My personal guide on reconginizing and stopping abuse can be found on the 'Obsession' series website at: http://www.freewebs.com/reobsession/
