    I can’t even begin to understand how you must have felt and feel now.

    I’ve got lots of questions

    (1) How did you free yourself/get freed?

    (2) Why did he want you?

    (3) How did you manage to stay strong?

    I have even more questions, but these are the first three that popped into my mind

        most people are familiar with “fight or flight” Acute Stress Responses, but when one neither fighting nor fleeing are viable options, there are other modalities that kick in for the sake of one’s survival.

        Namely, Freeze and Fawn: get small, be non-threatening, attempt to appease the assailant.

        You did what you had to in order to get through that, and while nonetheless horrific and brutal, the fact that you came out of this alive is a testament to your resiliency. I wish you could get justice… hell I wish you could get vengeance. But I’m just glad you’re still here at all.

    Age 13-20? How much has this affected your growth and upbringing?

    Do you find it affected your morality and beliefs.

    OK in my mind this is a bunker where youre isolated. What was the social dynamic like?

        Wow that’s wild. I hope you get support from your family and professional help when you need it.

        But also, there’s lots to discover. I wish you all the best.

    Not that people lie on the internet for attention, but any proof of this?

    I can’t even begin to imagine what this must have been like… I’m wondering about several things:

    1. What kind of reaction was there to your dissapearance? Have you ever looked up any archives to find out what happened in the days after you dissapeared?

    2. What is your life like now?

    1. Were you ever physically or sexually abused by him?
    2. Did you ever try to contact for help through a telephone or other means? How did that go?
    3. Did anyone ever visit him while you were held captive?

    You said he let you go, so he’s around somewhere. Have you thought about what you would do, if you ever accidentally met your kidnapper?

    I wish you all the best in your life!
