Inspired by recent plane-based TikTok drama, a PSA: Videoing strangers in public is typically a foolish idea, not everything that happens in your vicinity is a true-crime saga, and minding your own business instead of maintaining 24/7 surveillance is good for you.
Absolutely insane to document this on social media for the whole world to weigh in while knowing nothing of what's actually going on. What happened to just speculating and then telling a friend if it's that interesting?
There are people who truly believe that there is nothing too far, nothing too inappropriate, when it comes to exposing infidelity. They really think it’s a crime worse than murder. A lot of them use their dads’ infidelity to justify this opinion rather than getting therapy
"Somebody did a terrible thing that traumatized you for life. Don't ever put any effort into stopping people from doing that exact thing"
😒 Sexual harassment
😦 Child abuse
🤗 Infidelity
Yeah, you don't get to dictate how other people handle their trauma.
As a survivor of all of those things you mentioned and more, this take is really dangerous, especially in this context. PTSD skews your processing of events. Healing means learning to NOT take your trauma out on others and always see everyone else’s lives & actions through the lens of your trauma
The entire problem with PTSD is it spurs you to behavior that’s interpreted by others as overreaction at best, toxic at worst. Thinking you need to actively stop all the things you see, through the lens of your trauma, as more trauma waiting to happen destroys relationships & your life
