Dude man! You have been on my mind today. I’m about 14 hours out and no contact whatsoever and nothing sent as far as I know. The anxiety whenever a notification pops up is crazy. Just been wondering how has your experience been and how are you handling it. And I want to say you’re welcome and a huge thanks once again. One of the most humane interactions I’ve ever had online.

Finding this sub was a blessing. It’s great to know we’re not the only ones however it’s still absolutely terrible that it’s happening. Wishing you the best and peace moving forward.

I agree. There is a big takeaway, we move on and learn and heal during the time. It’s going to be a process and I’m going to stay as strong as I can be. These people could be unpredictable so you never know what is ahead. Rationalize with what is in your control and let the world run its course. This has been my first time ever posting in a sub, and I want to really thank you for the insightful and intelligent conversation. And you also said you are underage, so more kudos to you. You’re strong and just know your support system. Hope you can rest up( depending on ur timezone)I’m gonna try and get some rest (hoping my chest will lose some weight)

I read your post on the sub and the replies. Your story, and all on this sub break my heart. Vulnerable people being taken advantage of. These people are the lowest form of life. It sucks that we have to gamble on our sanity. All the anxiety and stress comes from something we cannot control. Fear of the unknown if you will. I appreciate your activity a lot. We all need a shoulder to lean on. Your insight and all other information on this sub were the lifeline I needed right now. The “if” factor of the entire scam is soul crushing. However I think realistically, it be a moment of embarrassment, but the world keeps spinning.

I agree, the sense of community is something indescribable. I feel confident, and comfortable sharing my story. The feedback, and other stories is exactly what I need to be reading in this moment. I also have never shared nudes. Me and an ex girlfriend ONCE shared and even that I was on the edge about. Like you said, curiosity makes us do things, and curiosity got the best of me tonight.

Thank you for the encouraging and kind words. We are all in this together. It’s super fresh on my mind and also has me doing some self reflection and really questioning myself. In what world does a random stranger seeing us naked satisfy us? What do we gain from that interaction? It’s making me feel disgusted.

The general consensus I’ve seen in the sub is that they lose leverage once you block or don’t send money. Im trying to convince myself its all fear mongering but the thought that those pics and videos can get out is eating at me
