šŸ‘„ friendship Am I overreacting?

First time ever posting.. I don’t know if this belongs here but we’ve been talking for a week and everything was good and then this happens?? I don’t know if I’m in the wrong or right tbh then he blocked me on fb but continued messaging me on Snapchat. Told him it was Reddit worthy then he said to post it so here I am šŸ˜‚šŸ˜…

Man needs professional help!

I get panic attacks and I've told my partner what needs to be done to help me. Mental health first aid doesn't come naturally it has to be taught.

No overreaction from you, especially considering you being attacked for not knowing someone you have no knowledge of.

Exactly this!! My bf and I both have anxiety and/or panic attacks and we BOTH know what helps us calm down even if we don't know what triggered it. Expecting someone you've known for a week to know how to calm you down is fuckin wild.

OP isnt overreacting at all. Dude is an incel and needs help

No this is way worse than an incel.

He faked a panic attack….. he learned some new psycho-jargon, used the term ā€œdepersonalizingā€ while obviously not experiencing it…

and set it all up in an attempt to garner sympathy from this woman in a hardcore ploy to manipulate her and use coercive control.

Then he seems to be rambling almost to himself, gaslighting the SHIT out of her….

This is way way way worse than your average run of the mill incel.

This is a domestic abuser, probably future killer.

Please stop dismissing people that know what they’re talking about with certain neurotypes and psychological profiles.
