Added 2024-03-01 09:56:42 +0000 UTCOne more episode until the final, I'm still confused how she managed to be so heavily involved in all of this.

I agree, I think they rushed through some of the scenes. I think it’s because it’s a limited mini series they crammed in some of the story lines. The pacing could have been better if it was longer. I’m really sad to hear that you’ve gone through a traumatic experience in your life. I hope you’ve been able to seek support and you’re doing ok now?

2024-03-03 03:40:42 +0000 UTCi suffer from PTSD and i think she plays maja so fucking great, my emotions are numb ever since that day i was completely tramatic but its those kinds of moments my emotions comes to life again when i see her completely torn up by her traumatic experiences i just cant stop crying, i my own anxiety comes and it feel so good to finally feel something even if its through her acting and it isnt real, it is so real for me and i can feel it so deep besides that i feel like something is missing from the script, like they rushed from the moment everything was pretty good until the shooting started, the acting was amazing but the script just wasn't good enough for me

2024-03-03 03:18:07 +0000 UTCThanks for that message it was lovely, I'm glad we are on the same page. Sometimes I just rant and just say what's on my mind haha! This show is so great because it really highlights abuse in all its forms. Drug Abuse, Neglect, Physical Abuse, Emotional Abuse they have it all covered. I hope they show a number or contact at the end to forward people on where to get help if they're in a similar situation. I can imagine this show can be particularly triggering for people who have past trauma. Thanks for watching the show with me Makaela. Can't wait to watch the finale next week :)

2024-03-02 15:05:05 +0000 UTCI really liked this! Great analysis about both of them and their relationship. I'm sorry you had to go through that with your ex, but I'm also glad you talk about it and pointing out what's really going on there. Being (told you're) the only one who can save someone is such a trap. When it becomes a pattern it's psychological abuse, and when assessing the risk of violence, the threat about "if you leave, I'll commit suicid" is seen as a indicator of increased risk of deadly violence. But on the other hand, when the dad talks to her in the hallway, she's right in one way, even though it's not good for her - who else would be there for him? And is it fair to leave someone who apparently needs help to deal with their shit on their own when obviously not capable of doing so? idk, it's a tricky one to say the least. And thank you for what you said during the hearing when the prosecutor asked about why she didn't leave. I just want to add the aspect of stigma, shame and normalizing what's going on. "Who would believe me?", "Why did I stay when I knew it wasn't okay? How should I explain it to others?", the trauma, feeling of not being in control of your own life and therefor not able to make the decision to leave, etc etc. But as I said - thank you! We need more men understanding the process and standing up for abused women.
