PLEASE see the list below if you are dealing with trauma and you need help. That is the primary lesson behind this episode. Saint Bernard is a fantastic art-film that takes us on the downward spiral of Bernard, an orchestra conductor who is overcome by trauma. The visuals in this movie are stunning, uncomfortable, emotional. There is very little dialogue. On the technical side everything about this film is a valuable lesson. All of it. It may not be for everyone, but it is definitely a movie you will not forget if you watch it. Listen up and decide for yourself. If you are suffering through trauma please, please make use of one of the numbers below. If you know someone who is suffering, take this list of numbers and make the call with that person. No one should ever have to handle it alone. You are not alone.

This story comes with disclaimers and trigger warnings. This is part two of a two-part story. In part two, our survivor talks about her use of self harm as a means to control her emotions. Self harm, or cutting, is of course not safe. And it is not a means to improve one's life. By all means, seek professional help if you want to learn more. The WHEN DATING HURTS Podcast does not seek to be shocking or sensational. But understand that Domestic Violence and its effects are oftentimes alarming. Please take care of yourself first. Chloe's story centers on her relationship with a man named David. When they met, he was an injured athlete recovering from a recent surgery. David knew how to pour on the charm. Not only an athlete, David was a first-rate manipulator. Chloe was perfect for him to eventually dominate. He not only isolated her from her friends. He also isolated her from her sense of free will. Ask yourself if you would stay in a relationship where your partner acted anything like this abuser. The lesson is: Get out early from a relationship like this. Get out when things feel wrong to you. And, as Chloe will tell you, trust your gut! If you have time, be sure to add a review for WHEN DATING HURTS on whatever podcast player you use. Reviews encourage others to listen, and when they do, they learn.

In another disturbing case of women's safety being not at all a priority, a man in Minneapolis turned images of some 80 women he sort-of-but-not-really-knew into graphic p*rn. When his WIFE found out, he fled town with his laptop in hand, probably to infiltrate a new town with his predator ways. Police threw their hands up and said, "Uh, we don't know what you want us to do. Is this illegal?" Turns out, it is and it isn't. One of the victims talks to Toxic about how she's using her law background to help make sure future women get the justice they deserve against gross men who can't literally make everything in the world about getting off.

Every survivor story comes with reasons to listen carefully and learn the many facets of dating and domestic violence. This story is certainly no exception.For those of you thinking domestic violence doesn't happen to people like you, Jamie's narrative stands as evidence to the contrary.She was a college graduate. A law school graduate. And then a prosecutor in a district attorney's office near Philadelphia, Pennsylvania.What is so ironic? She was the prosecutor of criminal cases oftentimes like what she was experiencing within her personal life at that time. And yet, she was not thinking of her difficulties as abuse.When she realized she was technically a domestic violence victim, she felt guilt and shame for not coming forth and taking the kinds of legal steps against her abuser she would have urged her clients to take.Jamie wants to underscore dating and domestic violence can—and does—happen to anyone in any profession. This is what finally helped her turn the corner on her shame. This interview is her way to reach out to the world and use her story to help shine the light of knowledge about abuse.

This interview comes with all the trigger warnings.Amanda lives in Australia, but her story could have taken place anywhere in the world.The treatment Amanda and her twin sister (named J.J.) received as babies continued into their teen years.

This is Domestic Violence at its ugliest.The redeeming facet about Amanda's story is how it never managed to break her. Her generous spirit can be witnessed here. She somehow was able to find a way to live through it all and took a heroic path in life.This is Amanda's story.NOTE: If you want to share your story of abuse on the WHEN DATING HURTS Podcast, email me: BillMitchell@WhenDatingHurts.comThank you for listening to our podcast, Bill MitchellWhenDatingHurts.com- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -Thanks to my wonderful sponsors.

This is part two of three parts with Sabrina. She met him in her freshman year of college. He was a senior. Was it love at first sight? Maybe for her. Not for him. Jake had other ideas.This story is meant for parents with daughters in, or soon entering, college. It should be a time when they begin to take off in life and learn to find their way. But it be a time when they display their innocence and are easy prey for predators.Sabrina was a trusting young woman who put her life in the hands of a man who knew how to manipulate her until she had no power at all. The more she gave the more he took.We ask ourselves how these kinds of toxic/dangerous relationships take hold. We ask why a smart person doesn't just pick up and leave. This story will explain this from the POV of someone who still cannot understand how she had this happen to her. This is Sabrina's story.

This is part one of a two-part story.Taylor is a 39-year-old survivor from northern New York. She is two years with no contact from her emotionally abusive ex-partner. The only way she was able to escape was by educating herself about these types of individuals, and she thinks it's important to reinforce the gut feelings that most of us feel when we first get involved.Taylor felt sorry for her ex-partner and let her empathy overpower her intuition. She has learned much since leaving this man and truly feels like she is a completely different person now.She has boundaries, self-love, and self-respect once again. She says, “Leaving was the hardest thing I have ever done, and I truly feel that if I did not leave correctly I would have been murdered.” The final straw was when he used intimidation as well as stalking. He showed who he truly was at the end, but she also showed him who she truly was by never giving in.Taylor: “I'm so incredibly grateful for podcasts like yours. It's two years later and I still think of him daily. These types of people are imbedded into our psyches. The knowledge (WHEN DATING HURTS) passes along is invaluable and definitely keeps me headed in the only safe direction which is far away from him. Thank you so very much.” Listen to Taylor's story and watch as the warning signs are made present—and how she disregards them. This is another cautionary tale that offers us insights into how dating and domestic violence sneaks in and take innocent people over.NOTE:If you want to share your story of abuse on the WHEN DATING HURTS Podcast, email me: BillMitchell@WhenDatingHurts.comThank you for listening to our podcast, Bill Mitchell WhenDatingHurts.com- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -Thanks to my wonderful sponsors.

My three-part interview with Annie reveals a smart, innocent, creative, and fragile young woman giving her best to find a sustainable life for herself.Her desire to share her successes and failures is on full display here. Annie takes us back to her childhood days moving from Wisconsin to Texas to Alaska and back to Wisconsin. Her father's Air Force career makes the transfers necessary. Her biggest move was after college when she looked for work in Brooklyn, New York.Making friends was difficult, and loneliness was a constant. Her introspection allows an extraordinary view into the thought process of a woman working through a maze she thinks she created for herself.Annie describes intimate relationships that launch with hope, but in every instance, something gets in the way. The relationships which became abusive are where she shows us what she didn't know, and here is where we can gain the most learning.Annie's desire was to inform our audience about what can be going on in the mind of a person who doesn't get the kinds of help she needed from childhood to adulthood. She was left to fend for herself.Annie is another courageous survivor who knows sharing a personal story can inform—and often free—another innocent victim or survivor.NOTE: If you want to share your story of abuse on the WHEN DATING HURTS Podcast, email me: BillMitchell@WhenDatingHurts.comThank you for listening to our podcast, Bill Mitchell WhenDatingHurts.com- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -Thanks to my wonderful sponsors.

This is part one of a two-part narrative. Let me say upfront that I totally admire this woman!This is a cautionary tale for parents and children. There is much to be learned as Cherice Bloom tells of years of abusive behavior while dating and being married to Cody (not his real name).Growing up, early family life offered little comfort. Cherice's father's job took him away from home most of the time. Her mother was schizophrenic, which created shocking upheavals for young Cherice. Still in her teens, she was forced to flee her own home. During that time, she met a slightly older boy who swept her off her feet. She admits she was naïve and innocent, but he was not. Even in the earliest stages of dating, you will hear how unhealthy behavior crept in.Cherice was not aware that the warning signs she experienced would lead to all kinds of trouble. So, she stayed with Cody. Cherice Bloom overcame many hurdles placed in her path. You will learn how her journey made her strong. You will benefit greatly from hearing her tell it all for your benefit.NOTE:If you want to share your story of abuse on theWHEN DATING HURTS Podcast, email me: BillMitchell@WhenDatingHurts.comThank you for listening to our podcast,Bill MitchellWebsite: WhenDatingHurts.comContent/Trigger Warnings: domestic abuse, domestic violence, alcoholism, and graphic violence.- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -Thanks to my wonderful sponsors.If you purchase one of these products, a portion of the sale helps to keep this podcast running.BlendJet• Use my special link: zen.ai/WhenDatingHurts12 to SAVE 12% at blendjet.com.The discount will be applied at checkout!Cure HydrationTry Cure today and feel the difference for yourself!• Use my link: https://zen.ai/WhenDatingHurts1for 20% OFF your order, coupon activated at check out!Nom NomTry Nom Nom today, go to trynom.com/whendatinghurtsand GET 50% OFF your first order plus FREE shipping.
This is part two of a two-part narrative. The voice you hear on this WHEN DATING HURTS Podcast episode was created by artificial intelligence. It is not a real person's voice. The words spoken are a composite of beliefs and concepts expressed by dating and domestic abusers found within notes and interviews. They have been collected over nearly two decades. They have been combined to form complete ideas and thoughts. The purpose of this episode is to illustrate how abusers often portray themselves as the victims. There is not one "portrait" that fits all abusers, of course. But let it be said that many never take ownership of their words or actions, and they justify any abusive and destructive behaviors. NOTE: If you want to share your story of abuse on the WHEN DATING HURTS Podcast, email me: BillMitchell@WhenDatingHurts.comThank you for listening to our podcast, Bill Mitchell Website: WhenDatingHurts.comContent/Trigger Warnings: domestic abuse, domestic violence, alcoholism, and graphic violence.

This is part two, the final episode of JaNae's story. . JaNae was studying to become a nurse. Tony was studying to be a doctor. To all who knew them, this looked like the perfect marriage of two smart professionals. Their parents were happy and proud of them. Nobody expected what was really happening in their “perfect world”.At home, when Tony couldn't get his way or felt like dispensing some abuse, JaNae was bore the brunt of it. But she felt married for life and tried to get them to peace and maybe counseling.Nothing seemed like it was working.As time wore on, Tony described the pressure he was feeling in school. It made his time sharing in household duties negligible. His way of dealing with the stress was to play video games all evening and into the morning hours. JaNae carried the entire load of housework, and that's while attending to her het own demanding studies.This story has several twists I never saw coming.

This is part one of two. It's a story you can relate to — and learn from. See how innocently this relationship began. Everything seemed perfect. It looked like it had a long future. What took place later could happen to anyone. Amy fits many of the characteristics of an abuse victim. She is affable, generous, optimistic, loyal and forgiving. Quite the opposite from the man she met online, thought she loved, and lived with along with her young daughter.Like many women, Amy met a guy she quickly fell for. Brian perfectly met her checklist of the kind of a man she was hoping to find. But he was well-practiced in deception: knowing how to bring her along and portray himself as an engaging partner. When he had her where he wanted her, the real Brian emerged. And her world turned upside down.Amy's story of abuse gives insights into how someone can get trapped by a calculating abuser. See how a woman can come to doubt her own reality. Amy considers herself fortunate to get out alive.
