Lundy [Bancroft], author of WHY DOES HE DO THAT?, points out that one of the abusers most commonly used tactics is to try to convince you and the people around you that you are crazy”.
Do not fall for their unprofessional diagnosis. Do not try to convince him or other people who are uneducated enough to believe him that they are incorrect. Let them believe what they want. Not only is this your opportunity to distinguish who your true support group is in order to protect yourself from his allies, it’s also a great source for personal strength and growth. And once you’ve overcome the feelings of betrayal, and learned the real reasons for this tactic of his, it can be a great source for endless humor by seeing what “the blind leading the blind” truly means. Stay away from these toxic people, they are harmful to your health, survival and well being.
In labeling you “crazy”, the abuser finds it easier to justify his abuse. If you have already left the abuser he can use a pop psychology term to justify to himself and others why you left him in order to avoid looking at the true reason for your departure, which was his abuse. If you find yourself questioning his lay-diagnosis, I urge you to seek the advice of a licensed psychotherapist who can tell you in a few sessions if any of his claims are valid or not.

I concede that Ted Bundy's victims, the dead ones, have no choice to recreate themselves in the aftermath. The living ones do. If you live through your abusive relationship, you have choices. It is your personal right to choose to be destroyed forever by your encounter. I was confronted with this choice myself. My ex husband ATM burned through my entire retirement fund and the proceeds from my house sale in California (which was considerable, I sold in in 2005). (i'm going to address this in an expose' soon... WHAT BECAME OF THE 'RANCHO BINKSTINK'???... what became of the farm that was PURCHASED FROM THE PROCEEDS OF THE CONSIDERABLE proceeds from the sale of her house?... it seems to have just poof... disappeared!!!)
Instead of accepting what others would (and do) define me as, I learned to accept and forgive myself at the knees of some veteran abuse survivors on Trubble's Catbox (they are all at Our Place) (sucking up... but it's not working... they won't have her) now. I saw that THEY redefined themselves and went on, perhaps limping a bit, to new and better lives. With and without new husbands/boyfriends/children/money/assets. And their hopefulness and strength in the face of adversity was REAL. Not a bunch of smoke and mirrors, or false hope. People in much worse situations than mine. And they were right. Here I am. Still limping, true. Who knows where I will go?I am still living with abuse in my life, I have to admit it.
If that is how Barbara feels about her post as moderator, that my criticism was an attempt to undermine the one thing that keeps her afloat in this world, I apologize sincerely. (spare us all)
Just remember that it's not just about YOU. It's about the people who look up to you. Have some pity for their shattered selves. If you must go on and on about how "destroyed" YOU are, say also that you are speaking for yourself only. You've made your choice. Your membership may have not made theirs, yet, and it's only fair to admit that your choice is not the only one. Maybe it's the only one that made sense for YOU. But for the majority of people, it won't be their choice. The majority will want to rise above the abuse and go on to have satisfying lives. (newsflash for the clueless bitch - no one ever said they were talking about ANYONE BUT THEMSELVES... and accusing the moderator of having no empathy for the members??? its pure projection!!! BinkStink has no empathy for anyone but BinkStink... notice how she twists the whole thing back around to poor ole' HER... doesn't that make you frightened for her patients at her job???)
The narcissistically injured on the other hand, cannot rest until she has blotted out a vaguely experienced offender who dared to oppose her, to disagree with her, or to outshine her.
It can never find rest because it can never wipe out the evidence that has contradicted its conviction it is unique and perfect. This archaic rage goes on and on and on.

you need to take a rest BinkStink,.. a nice long rest... or one day you're turn up in an article like THIS ONE...
tell them you're sick of her insane spews... her attacks on victims of domestic violence... her stalking forums she is not a member of, or welcome at, and that you believe she is doing it on THEIR TIME CLOCK. (because she has certainly done it in the past).. be sure and mention her creepy journal.. and if you email them... be sure and send a link to any posts you find OFFENSIVE or DISTURBING on her journal... MAYBE if she has to get a job at Jack in the Box or Walmart... the crazy bitch won't have time to STALK...
