how did she survive the last 13 years?


Recommended Posts

literally how the hell did she survive this? i think about her situation so often. i can’t imagine being a literal mega star, having your whole life ahead of you with millions to spend however you would like and being so young, and then your abusive dad comes along and literally enslaves you without being able to do anything to stop it. i think of what state of mind she must’ve been in, or if she had to say mantras to help herself to calm down because the thought of what was happening to her and  her unable to do anything about it would literally send ANYONE into a panic spiral and into a screaming crying attack, i can already feel my face getting hot just thinking about how awful that would feel. i wonder if in her head she thought that she would speak out when her boys turned 18 because that was how she was mainly threatened by jamie to stay trapped? that’s the only reason that makes sense to me as to why she wouldn’t have spoken out sooner, besides how deathly threatened and scared she was.

 

like did she ever have any remotely happy days over the last 13 years? it makes me sad to think that. she must’ve had somewhat good days in order to help her cope with what was happening? i can’t imagine her staying quiet while having every day be a literal hell on earth, but at the same time i feel like that’s what might have happened :( it confuses me in 2016 interviews when she said she loves her 30s and is so happy?, i don’t know i just wonder how she coped daily with, at the time,  thinking this was how the rest of her life was going to be. i give her major props for coping through this whole thing. i mean 13 years is SUCH. A. LONG. TIME. i’m literally 18 and i think about how this is literally the time length from when i gained consciousness to now. it feels so incredibly long because it IS. i feel so bad that she lost a decade of being free. i pray for jail for jamie.

It's a good question. After the first problems, she saw her kids often. She wrote that she had them 70% of the time when they were in elementary school. (She gave the ages which coincide with elementary school years.)

She loves to dance and entertain, and she is a hard worker, that must have sustained her. In the beginning, she had a fiancé, and according to fan reports she was told that the conservatorship would end, but it didn't. It was made permanent. That hope fizzled so did the fiancé.

Around 2015/16, she had a boyfriend who probably told her that the conservatorship was not necessary. All this time, she was afraid they would not let her see her kids if she did not behave like they wanted. This must have heavily weighed on her, but she trudged on like a good trouper until they sent her to "that place". 

How do you survive? With a backbone of steel. With a supportive boyfriend. I know many people don't like Asghari, but I credit him as her anchor when her kids barely acknowledged her anymore.

yes to all of that, and i also totally agree on the asghari part, i feel like he really helped her have someone to trust while everyone else around her was a fake snake.

She gives me strength. My life turned 180 this year but every time I think about her and how she's still standing I have motivation to keep going.  I'm also the same age as she was when they put her into c-ship. It seems so crazy when you see it from the similar perspective. Sometimes I get recommended her old interviews on youtube and it makes me cry how much she always talked about her family. So messed up.
