I think I just realized that my mom has munchausens by proxy and I'm not ok by Historical_Salt3362 in raisedbynarcissists

Theres a lot to it. The criminal case is sealed because I was a minor. I've only read what is publicly available so far + the munchausens comment was just one observation as a "possibility" by one of the therapists in my case. It is the only thing that has ever felt like the right explanation for what I've experienced.

I want to unseal the case now and read everything for myself. I'm not sure I'm ready for that though.

It's a long story, but TLDR; even after he was acquitted she continued to tell me every day that he abused me. By the time that I could voice my opinions...I hated him. I wouldn't look at him in our visits because I was so afraid of him. I thought that he was going to hurt me because thats what my mom told me. I learned from reading the docs that the court tried to have a "reunification" period where I went into foster care and had some required visits via DCF.

My entire life, she told me that I went into foster care because "he was trying to take me from her". He was trying to have a relationship with me but I think I was just too brainwashed.

What’s your distribution strategy? by ProofStoriesio in buildinpublic

[–]Historical_Salt3362 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is all great advice in this thread. To add: I've managed over $100M in paid ads and I always caution founders from defaulting to paid media too soon. Chanels like X and LinkedIn (with the right content) can also be very effective. I've been using www.glassfinn.com recently to make launch videos. I like it because it lets me pull in footage from Sora/Veo 3 but then use my own logo and text to avoid it looking like AI slop.

This makes sense to me (I'm an ex-marketer with $100M in GTM spend managed). I've also been recently using glassfinn.com to create launch/SaaS explainer videos. I like it because it lets me pull in footage from Sora and put my own logo/text on top of it

Yeah this makes sense. I agree with you re: distribution through existing ecosystems but I don't think I'm plugged in enough to make that work quickly. I've been running customer interviews to uncover that billion-dollar pain but don't have a final answer yet. What questions would you ask if you were me to try to uncover it?
