My Win Against Shame Guilt
I am grateful to know how shame guilt are used to make us victims. |
I had to be in a court trial to prosecute a person who assaulted me. It appeared an easy win since I recorded the incident, my injuries, and I didn’t instigate his attack. However, the defense attorney tried to discredit me and my story by using shame guilt to convince me the assault happened differently. Once the onslaught of shaming and guilting happened, I realized that the attorney ONLY had shame guilt tactics to win. I WON! I confidently refused to accept the defending attorney’s use of shame guilt statements against me. |
