The vulnerable, isolated and marginalised service user turns scary ogre, object of fear and loathing to so many, and probably featuring in many a nightmare!
Please note folks: expressing a personal viewpoint can leave you open to being witch-hunted out of your own existence. Whoever would have believed a mere opinion could render you sub-human?
Adam, Angela’s husband, once also a friend, tells me I am ‘self-righteous’ folks. Never at any stage, apparently, have I looked at my own actions.
Having been demonised by an ever-growing cohort of very righteous ‘professionals’ I am to go and stand in the corner like a primary school kid, and think about what I have done wrong.
Note the mind-reading, and the unrecovered codependency and lack of boundaries.
They can’t be specific as to what I have done wrong, in their eyes. But that will not stop them continuing vague slurring and smearing by means of the trusty epithet ‘abuse’.
As they cannot pin down what is so abusive about me, I open this up for ‘general sharing’ as we say in the Fellowships!
Folks, do this poor benighted Zoe a favour. Show me the error of my ways, as my persecutors are unwilling to do. You would be doing me a great kindness, gentle reader.
Where is the abuse? Where?
I slept well, am still alive and am going to visit my Mum in Kent and spend the night. I would ask any of you who are on first-name terms with God or any sort of Higher Power, to pray for me, please.
People of integrity will often be persecuted in this corrupt world of ours. Fact.
Adam is apparently conveniently blind to the fact that Equals maintain they have done nothing wrong and everything right throughout. Including the exclusion of a vulnerable person from their course giving no explanation that holds water, in front of ten witnesses.
They must have been pretty convinced of their righteousness at that point. But to myself, and any competent trainer, if would be a sign that some failure had taken place, and a reason to look into how THEY could have done things differently.
One cannot expect actively and unrecovering codependent types like Angela and her husband to have that perspective. They operate within their own world of faulty boundaries, back-covering, self-righteousness, acting out, projection, and all of it with no solitary time to reflect on themselves.
Where do you see anywhere any evidence of Angela and her cohorts writing anything like what you see here? Where do they get to ask themselves questions? Where do they experience total isolation and distress that breeds the asking of still more questions?
I will be in Kent later today and will blog from there again if I am inspired to, and everyone of goodwill out there…thank you so much for reading.
Lots love and blessings. Zoe xxx

You certainly don’t need the likes of me to tell you that righteousness is very difficult to overcome — impossible, I think, when only one is up against many. It is sensible to route your life around it. There is a place I often like to go for a walk, and I think I might walk there today if the snow does not turn to slush, but on the way there is a big swampy patch. Naturally, I walk around the swampy patch, not through it. It is the only sensible way.
‘Can’t go over it. Can’t go under it. Can’t go around it. Got to go through it’, CBTish, as the ‘Going on a Bear Hunt’ children’s book tells us! Lots love and thanks for your comment. Z x
