Victim-blaming comes in many forms, and is oftentimes more subtle, and unconscious than Metzger’s tirade.
It can apply to cases of r**e and sexual assault, but also to more mundane crimes, like a person who gets pickpocketed and is then chided for his decision to carry his wallet in his back pocket.
Any time someone defaults to questioning what a victim could have done differently to prevent a crime, he or she is participating, to some degree, in the culture of victim-blaming..
✅CASE STUDY:-

(1) In 2003, a 14-year-old girl named Elizabeth Smart was kidnapped from her bedroom in Salt Lake City, Utah at knifepoint. She spent the next nine months held captive by her abductors, Brian Mitchell and Wanda Barzee. After her rescue and details of her time in captivity become public, many people wondered why she hadn't tried to escape or reveal her identity.

(2) When news reports surfaced of a woman being r**ed, many questions center on what the victims were wearing or doing that might have "provoked" the attack. When people are mugged, others frequently wonder what victims were doing out so late at night or why they did not take extra measures to protect themselves from the crime.

⭕️Challenging Common R**e Myths:

1) She asked for it. – No one asks to be r**ed. This is victim-blaming pure and simple.

2) It wasn’t really r**e. – Apparently people still feel the need to differentiate between “legitimate r**e” and presumably “illegitimate r**e.” This misguided sentiment has a silencing effect on survivors, many of whom will say they chose not to report because they didn’t think it was serious enough or that they would be believed.

3) He didn’t mean to. – There aren’t “blurred lines” when it comes to consent. Studies suggest that most campus r**es are committed by repeat offenders.

4) She wanted it. – This is a variation of #1.

5) She lied. – Again, best research puts false reporting rates somewhere between 2-5%. That means 95-98% of r**e reports are true.

6) R**e is a trivial event.-R**e and other forms of gender-based violence can have an immense impact on an individual.

It is a common misconception that depression means being sad, or crying a lot, or dressing ’emo’ to be dramatic, to show sadness. It is a lot more than that. Depression is feeling numb to emotions, feeling numb to everything in life.

•People experience depression in different ways. It may interfere with your daily work, resulting in lost time and lower productivity. It can also influence relationships and some chronic health conditions.

Conditions that can get worse due to depression include:

-arthritis
-asthma
-cardiovascular disease
-cancer
-diabetes
-obesity

✅ Treatment tips:-
•Lifestyle changes: An essential part of depression treatment.

•Exercise: Regular exercise can be as effective at treating depression as medication.

•Social support: Strong social networks reduce isolation, a key risk factor for depression. Keep in regular contact with friends and family, or consider joining a class or group. Volunteering is a wonderful way to get social support and help others while also helping yourself.

•Nutrition: Eating well is important for both your physical and mental health. Eating small, well-balanced meals throughout the day will help you keep your energy up and minimize mood swings. While you may be drawn to sugary foods for the quick boost they provide, complex carbohydrates are a better choice. They’ll get you going without the all-too-soon sugar crash.

•Sleep: Sleep has a strong effect on mood. When you don’t get enough sleep, your depression symptoms will be worse. Sleep deprivation exacerbates irritability, moodiness, sadness, and fatigue. Make sure you’re getting enough sleep each night. Very few people do well on less than seven hours a night. Aim for somewhere between seven to nine hours each night.

•Stress reduction: Make changes in your life to help manage and reduce stress. Too much stress exacerbates depression and puts you at risk for future depression. Take the aspects of your life that stress you out, such as work overload or unsupportive relationships, and find ways to minimize their impact.

📍In any severe Case talk to your therapist.

It's normal for children to feel afraid at times.
*Fear is an emotion that can help kids be cautious. Things that are new, big, loud, or different can seem scary at first.
*Parents can help kids feel safe and learn to feel at ease.👨‍👩‍👦
Most kids cope with normal fears with gentle support from their parent.
As they grow, they get over fears they had at a younger age.
Some kids have a harder time, and need more help with fears.

*If fears are extreme or keep a child from doing normal things, it might be a sign of an anxiety disorder.
In any case-
seek the advice of your mental health professional........👤

The meaning of this noun has been described as a transformation or conversion, usually spiritual. Thus it has also been described as the process or journey of changing one’s mind, heart, self, or way of life.
To share out your soul freely, that is what metanoia (a change of mind, or repentance)really refers to: a mental product of love. A change of mind, or love for the undemonstrable. And you throw off every conceptual cloak of self-defense, you give up the fleshly resistance of your ego. Repentance has nothing to do with self-regarding sorrow for legal transgressions. It is an ecstatic erotic self-emptying. A change of mind about the mode of thinking and being.
