PrimeWire

the thing that hit me hardest after the first 2 or 3 episodes was the 2 weeks later murder that was the exact same fucking thing! not even 5yrs later!!! same neighborhood, same dynamics, same situation. like, really!? fuckers ain’t learned in 5yrs!?!?!?!?!? my wife is an abuse survivor. she barely made it through 2 episodes. spent 3 days after that in a state of anger/depression due to this documentary, because it brought out so much shit that she went through as a child. the pain lingers on for decades. those survivors don’t get better over night. they carry it into adulthood and beyond. fyi: i’m still in psychiatrist mode with my wife attempting to help her through the memories this series dragged to the front of her memory. it broke down a lot of walls. now she has to rely on me to be the anchor to hold her in place while she faces these memories head on. RIP Gabriel y Anthony! such sad stories.

P.S. We will get through this. #WeGotThis we always do. we make an awesome team keeping each other in grounded into the now, and accepting the past as our history. it’s what made us who we are.
