I'm so broken right now. I was assaulted a week ago, and my partner didn't respond like this at all...I was yelled at, accused of cheating, told it WAS "my fault," and broken up with on the spot. It was as if every single pain I felt was amplified, and invalidated at the same time. I'm so sorry for the personal story, but I don't have anywhere to go...
To all who have been hurt by someone: you ARE worthy, you ARE beautiful, you ARE strong & you ARE worth life, love & happiness. It was NEVER your fault & you are no less than perfect. Stay Strong xx
I agree, nobody need to be hurt in anyway, in there reason at all no hurting someone alway be kind. I go to school at holling hights elementary, #BEKIND is a goal to every student in that school goal. Be kind to people around you and help them to understand what there doing wrong.
this really hits me because I was abused by my father and older brother since I was 5, no one really seemed to care except my mother,but she was abused too. we finally moved last year and as far as I know, its over.
I can't even express how much I needed this. The past month, I've been really struggling with my PTSD from an assault, and I can't even explain how much this is helping. Thank you, Cardlin.
I know that the chances of you reading this are very low, for the sake of how many comments there are, but I just needed to thank you. Honestly, you've helped me cope with so many different things, that I can't thank you enough. You're an amazing and awesome person and I wish that i could just hug you. Thank you so much for not only helping me, but for helping others. please keep up the amazing work. You're the best!~ ^w^
I am abused in my own mind my 2 year older sister molested me when i was 12 she was 14 she hit me bullied me every way possible my parents don't know about the sexual stuff and i hated woman who wanted sex like that i can't handle people anymore im learning to love myself im 16 now she's 18 so i never have to see her again this really helped me so much man thank you for giving me hope for a weak teenager boy im not ashamed of crying..
you’re so strong my dude, male assault/abuse can be so overlooked and you’re brave for even sharing here. know you are, so, so valid and that you owe no one anything, except yourself. i hope you are doing well
I'm so sorry you went through that dude. I hope you are doing better now. And you are so brave and strong. Hope you have a great rest of your day/afternoon/night.
what i love abot this video, is that iv'e practicly read through all the commebts, and nobody is hating or just like bashing others on here, they're all supportive. and just.... it make it feel like not everyone doesnt understand or doesnt care, there are those who will, and its just. idk nice i guess
after getting spiked by someone one night a while ago, and being left on my own to cope, this really does a fantastic job of aiding that, thank you cardlin :)
+LaceeLasers i'm perfectly fine now, thanks very much for asking :) the scariest part was probably just passing out in the middle of the street on my own, but i was very fortunate and made it home safely (even if i was on my own) so it's all good :)
I'm a victim of two rapes by acquaintances, one by a stranger, and countless ones by an ex this year after leaving an abusive family that trafficked me last year and I don't know how to heal. I go to work every day, put on a brave face, a smiling one, but I'm dying inside. I wish the world would understand how much i hurt and need to fall apart but it doesn't.
I hope things get better for you and don't worry your not alone there will always be people to reach out to and people to help you rise back up. I hope this made your day.❤
Thank you for this. My PTSD/anxiety has been through the roof lately thanks to my abuser resurfacing after many years. And this is absolutely so comforting
This is so helpful especially when my boyfriend isn't here to do this I was sexually assaulted last year and for the past 3 days it's been horrible 14 panic attacks in that time frame so this helps with the nightmares
I hope all of these who's under gone such painful experiance, know that you are and will be loved somebody special. And Im sorry that you've gone through the pain.
I have one idea in my head for quite some time thinking of writing a story...maybe you could make an audio of it... your best friend is married and has a small baby and after some time of not being in contact you once just come to visit her without letting her know. You find her e.g. lying on the floor all bruised, beat up and in pain (maybe still bleeding?), the baby crying...you find out that her husband is abusing her in many ways mentally and physically, but she already got in the "magic circle" of not being able to leave him. So you decide to take her and the baby away immediately, first taking her to a hospital somewhere far away and under some fake name/story so he cannot find her there. My idea goes even further into "building a friend circle that is anytime willing and able to kick his ass (the best friend's best friend is a baseball bat :-D). My main character which is the " victim's" best friend broke both his legs with it (one can dream :-D)
(reads comments) I know that you're helping a lot of people through these audios and seeing the impact on them....like y'know..they're being comforted and stuff... I'm truly happy for that. Thanks bruh! We labs yuu~~
This helps so much. I was attacked by a gang of older people and ended up in hospital because of it, I’ve been having anxiety attacks and insomnia because of it ever since, all my friends abandoned me because of it and I didn’t have anyone. No one cared, they just thought I was being stupid. This seems to have helped with coping with everything thats happened and still is happening so thank you cardlin for giving me the ability to pretend that someone cares.
Your voice acting is impressive! I fell down the rabbit hole and have been listening to your work for at least a couple hours XD I love love LOVE your work! This is such an important source, I wish there was a way I could express how impressed/happy/GRATEFUL that you're doing this work.
Where has this channel been for all the years I needed it? I mean, I still need it, but I wish I had found it sooner. I have PTSD, Borderline Personality Disorder, Major Depression, and anxiety caused by years of verbal and emotional abuse that still occurs some today. It took years for me to start getting the help I need (started last year) so this is extremely helpful. Thank you so much for posting videos like this :)
Flashbacks kicking right now- I didn’t have anybody going through it, I’m glad I have this for comfort when the flashbacks hit me almost as hard as the event itself
I actually struggle when people get mad so if I get hurt (mentally or physically) from it I get scard and then if people get mad when I am hurt I get even more scared😰...This was so helpful thanks.☺
these vids are so cute and i fucking cried when i read the title. no one should have to go through something like this. If you have been abused, dont believe that it is your own fault. no one deserves to get abused and i wish i didnt happen. i fear that i could some day happen to me and i am thankful that it hasnt but all i can do is pray for the brave souls that went through this and stood strong the entire unfortunate time in your life. sometimes the world will beat you down and try to break you but as a wise man once said “When the going gets tough, the tough get going”(Timone from the lion king 2) you are tough, unbreakable, strong, beautiful, amazing and so much more that i cant even put into words. if this happens to you, remember that you are not a fault and someone in this small world does/ will love and care for you. i hope that this lifted the spirits of people that have been through this. thank you cardlin for bringing awareness to this troublesome reality of this world
Roleplay scene:- *Cardlin's phone rings Villan: hey cardlinnnnnn Cardlin: who is this? Villan: the one who made your girlfriend go to the hospital... Cardlin: wait WHAT?! WHO IS THIS AND WHERE IS SHE?!? IS THIS A JOKE?!? TELL ME!! Villan: go to the National Hospital room 112 to find out..... And by the way I just wanted to tell you to pray for her that she doesn't die hahahahahahahaha Cardlin: WHY DID YOU DO THIS TO HER?!?! Villan: BECAUSE SHE DENIED ME!! Cardlin: Tell me who the f*CK you are!! *Phone cuts Cardlin: hello?!? Oh shit I gotta go!! *Cardlin enters the hospital... Cardlin: Excuse me hello?! Ma'am where is room 112 it's an emergency!! Lady: it's in the east wing right across there..... Cardlin: thank you..... *Cardlin quickly reaches the corridor and starts to look for room 112... *Video continues........
Thank you for making this.... I was six when it started and it didn't end till I was 11. I had a boyfriend who broke up with me when he found out. This makes me hope.
A few years back I was sexually assaulted and this has helped me so much. Thank you Cardlin. This made me feel so much better about it. I can't tell you how much this has made me feel better.
It says comfort for Abuse or assault but for me it’s both, thank you again ❤️ your voice reminds me of my ex he was great but never helped enough with my depression
The first video I actually saw of cardlin was this when I was in the hospital after being sexually assaulted and shot by my step mom and bio dad. This is why cardlin is one of my fav people to listen to. I was crying in the hospital room with my weighted blanket on me, just listening on repeat, crying myself to sleep. I would listen to it at the store, the car, literally anywhere I could possibly get to it. It's something that's helped me throughout my abusive family and I find myself returning to it now as a sign that in a year I'll be away from it all. I'll never have to face these people again. And it's amazing. Because I never thought I'd love long enough to do so. Yeah, I still have till september of next year, but cardlins audios never fail to give me a safe space even if for a little while. So thanks card, you kinda saved me.
Sorry for my bad English but, I need to tell you thank u so much, i was abused at 6 years and is so hard to don't be afraid and everybody thinks that in time you will no longer be afraid, and that is so hard... But thank u very much, seriously, you don't have idea how this help me :]
hey I love the video! I was wondering if you could do an audio where you find them self harming? Like you see scars or catch them self harming or something, thanks!
when for you the he was a she & the abuse was emotional & mental, but still love this because there were certain words that I needed to hear to remind myself that it's okay to not get over things quickly. hell, my emotional & mental abuse was about three or four years ago & it still hurts me because she messed me up & made me believe love was nothing but a game...thank you though, cardlin. your words helped me a bit more :')
I know this is an old video- but Cardin your videos have helped me so much and i found your old videos- and thank you...i literally cried hearing "its not your fault" and "he cant hurt you anymore" so thank you for cheering me up and bringing me comfort❤ ❤
Maybe one day soon i'll be strong enough to walk away from the abuse/abuser and the whole setuation when i get my studies done under this year ... i'm scared tho that through the process i'll lose soul or something ...
I know this video is two years old, but I just found this and it's helping me with pent up emotions. For the first time in two years I've found something that makes me feel better. Long story short, my brother physically and sexually abused me for a little while and my parents didn't want to help, they just threatened to kick him out, no punishment, nothing. I begged them for therapy but claimed that it wouldn't help and that I should just get over it. They blamed me for it being my fault, when he would steal the key to my room from my dad, forcefully pry open my door and do things. I'm sorry for making this too long.
aw don't apologize precious! just know that most people are struggling, just like you! there are those out there who went through the same thing and are now stronger than ever with people who truly love them. i don't know if this helps, but i'd just like to say that it's okay, and will continue to be okay. you're going to find someone who will understand what you went through and will be patient with you. everything is okay. you're okay
No one has ever said anything like this to me & I really needed that comfort. Thank you so much, you’re an amazing person to even try and comfort anyone out there like me who’s never heard anyone try to help them through the flashbacks. Keep doing amazing things!
I wish that this was the reaction from a guy who I was really interested in. When I told him what had happened to me about 2 weeks prior, he seemed really supportive and understanding. I had pulled him aside to talk about this about an hour before our junior homecoming dance started. He was my date to the dance and I thought that I loved him. And I think that I did. But at the dance he began to make some jokes regarding the subject. I felt uncomfortable and went to leave, but then he pulled me into the conversation saying "Well I bet that you know how that feels, don't you Sierra? Some people just really don't know how to defend themselves or say no." I was heartbroken. I had trusted him with this fragile piece of myself, I had told him only a few hours ago. I hadn't really told anyone except for my family. He was the first person outside of family that knew. And he goes and makes jokes about it and my assault. I cried. I cried not only from the reminder and the harsh words, but also from the betrayal of someone close. The third betrayal in 2 weeks. So this video really means a lot to me. I didn't receive any support or comfort when I first told my mother about what happened the day of. Instead I got negativity and was told that she couldn't deal with me right now. And she hung up on me, crying in the back room of my advisory. And every time I would try and reach out to someone, they would shoot me down in some way. And I continued to withdraw into myself. But I am doing a little bit better now and am proud to say that I am 4 months clean. Which is a step in the right direction. But I just feel that I can't move on until I've made peace with the people who hurt me the most. And they are people who mean the world to me. But I don't know how to tell them about the pain that I went through. And the things that I'm going through. I'm terrified to tell them. And terrified to get help. So I'm at a bit of a standstill. Any advice? And thank you for reading this all the way through! Also thank you Cardlin for making these videos! They mean the world to me! 💜💜💜
God I needed this. I needed this I needed this I needed this so fucking badly. My PTSD and the rest of my mental illnesses have been through the roof and I can't stop having nightmares and flashbacks about my father and it is terrible and just. Thank you for making this video. Thank you so much
I still live in the same house as my abuser. It's a long story. I'm getting out soon though. I've got a friend in Canada and as soon as the borders open up again I'm gone. I want nothing to do with my family anymore.
Thank you so much. I was abused physically and mentally years ago and the depression hits me 24/7. This calms me down. I wish I had a boyfriend like you honestly.
I've honestly been struggling really badly with what had.. yeah.. but this honestly helps me and whenever I feel as if it was my fault I listen to this video wishing that someone did comfort me and helped me cope...
Im not even kidding, all of your videos make me want to cry. It's not that I'm sad, I just have an urge to cry and let it out. So glad I found you Cardlin!
Tell me why I started sobbing when you were saying it’s not my fault... I was in an emotionally and physically abusive relationship for three years. I’ve been out of it for about two years now, and so much has changed. For the better. But holy fuck this broke me down. Your voice is warm and calming, it just hit me in such a specific way. I know this video is years old, but I’m glad I found it. Oddly enough, that was an emotional catharsis I needed.
It feels good hearing these words even if it a year later. I really wish I had someone to tell me those words when it happened to me and not just burying myself into guilt and overwhelming fear. Thank you
No but the fact u said “he can’t hurt u anymore” it made me cry more bc he can, I literally got harassed in my sleep by my brother yesterday, I feel disgusting, I can’t help but feel like I did something, I feel terrified to go to bed anymore I don’t know what to do but I can’t tell my parents bc our family will fall apart if something happened to my brother idk
These videos help me recover from abuse and get me through a stressful day. Thank you so much for making these videos, you make people's day calmer or even adventurous. Keep it up at your pace.
I know I'm way late to the party, but I had to type this. these sort of things have happened to me and nobody was there for me like this. This is the video that made me come back. Every time I feel safe and loved, even though its someone I've never met behind a screen. This is honestly was has kept me sane. Thank you for this, all these types of audios. Thank you so much for saving so many of us.
Cardlin: "Look..look at what he's done to you-" Me: My heart: ScUrRyYyYyY All jokes aside, I've spent way too many nights crying alone listening to this audio, thank you Cardlin, you're fabulous.
Even though this is almost three years old it really helps. My step father had actually fought me (because I was late for curfew) busted my lips and knocked my jaw out of place and my mom had me sleeping in the car for the night and it was hard dealing with it especially since the guy I was with didn’t really...do...anything. I wish someone would have reacted like this, it feels really nice and calming....
I never ended up in the hospital but when I was in middle school (still am in middle school) my male “friend” touched me inappropriately in my lower area and when I had reported it my teachers and principals believed my but no one in my school did and I got bullied severely and it lead my to do somethings. All in all your videos really help me and make me feel safer.
My Grandfather broke every rib in my rib cage kicking me with his steel toed boots. He said if my grades were better he wouldn't have to hurt me. And my Grandmother went to bail him out of jail instead of going to the hospital with me. I wish someone had said that it wasn't my fault and that he'd never hurt me again, instead of being alone to cry. I was 17 and scared out of my mind. Years later and I'm still not "over it". But this audio helps! Thank you Cardlin!
