    I was abused as a child and a teenager for years, so was my sister, we are both pretty tired of hearing her claim to be speaking on behalf of all victims. Amber Heard speaks only on behalf of Amber Heard

    Geez she's still defaming him. She's behaving exactly as Dr Curry said she would. He should make her pay and give it to charities or she'll continue to defame him (or other men) until she faces consequences. If he waives the 10M, she'll just turn around and say, "johnny didn't make me pay because he knows I'm the true victim and he feels bad". She's never been held accountable and that's why she's like this.

      Agree! i hope that does change, since this case happened - Just saying you suffered abuse (man or woman), does not prove anything. Amber did not damage women in abuse situations - The truth matters, and that's what this case proves - it does not deter women from reporting abuse, in fact, it no doubt opens the door to show and empower both men and women - Tell the truth, and it will prevail

      I feel like people are totally misremembering this... Many people believed Johnny right from the start, people didn't just drop him instantly at all. It was only when he lost the libel lawsuit in the UK because the courts found Heard's accusations to be "substantially true" that he was dropped from Fantastic Beasts. She originally accused him of domestic abuse in 2016, the Sun ran the article in 2018 and he was only dropped in 2020. That is far from believing her without question.

      In this trial, Johnny was able to fight back. He brought a patient demeanor as he finally opened up about who was hitting who. Amber should have let it go after he promptly paid the 7 million dollars in the divorce suit. But, no, a year after she had been paid, she writes an op-ed declaring herself a victim of domestic abuse, and he by implication an abuser. This was on the eve of a movie in which she was the love interest, and the article certainly drew attention to her. In time to promote herself beyond merely being the girl in the movie: she was the girl deserving sympathy as the punching bag of a powerful man and who was now declaring herself a leader for abused women.

What was Amber thinking anyway ??? You don't go after a Hollywood Icon. As for Johnny Depp he came across as greedy, vindictive and petty. The Guy has a $200 millions net worth and he's going after a girl with a 12 million net worth. Jeez how low can you stoop ??? His ego was hurt ??? Really ??? Materialistic, merciless, narcissitic...Jimmy is miles away from his acting persona. This trial did way more to damage his reputation than Amber's accusations. Amber, touching and naive, is like that Spanish Character, Don Quixote, underestimating his opponents and engaging in fights way above her strength.

    Note: Not one single DV advocate group has spoken out in her defense, nor did anyone from any DV group attend the trial to support her. My guess is that all of these groups will drop her like a hot potato and stay as far away from her as they possibly can. What AH doesn't see is that she actually caused more harm to real DV victims because even more so than before, their allegations will be scrutinized due to AH's false allegations and blantant lies.
    Her terrible acting was on full display through her unnatural acting performance on the stand that sunk her ship. I believe it is because she does not relate to, nor does she understand normal human behavior and therefore cannot emulate it effectively.

    Even after proving his innocence, ppl will try & spin he was abusive in there somewhere. See why he had to sue for defamation & had to have the court broadcasted?

      They were both toxic for each other. And both had terrible coping mechanisms that not only did not help them cope but led them from bad to worse.
      When driven/triggered to react, neither one abstained from habits that brought relief, but alienated the other. Johnny took it out on drugs and abused jt heavily for many years, in the privacy of only his home. And Amber took it out on Johnny.
      It shouldn't be so much of trying pinpoint or spin it to the angle that he's abusive towards her. It's more like, people like them, they get ugly in their respective ways when they don't get things the way they prefer. So in relationship dynamics both did respond and interact with each other badly - running away/ avoiding discussions and then returning to love bomb each other, screaming and lashing out and things and at the other party, where other couples may have chosen to adjust and adapt, negotiated and backed off but return to discuss and agree on a way forward. But at the same time, it is not to be overlooked that on every count, Amber did cross the line.

      Exactly. Amber and her lawyers said that people didn't like her because she wasn't the perfect victim, but she wasn't a victim at all and it was Johnny who was the imperfect victim. He had his issues...he was a drug addict, he got mad, cursed, slammed cabinets and drank too much wine. He said nasty things in texts, but at end of the day there was no evidence that he abused Amber Heard and plenty of evidence she abused him.

    Unfortunately I recognized AH right away and signed many petitions to Disney to try to dissuade them from taking Johnny Depp out of Pirates.
    I recognized her because I grew up with a narcissistic mother. My mother is a narcissist who caused permanent hearing damage to my step father by hitting him in the side of the head with a glass ashtray in front of us children. We begged her to stop and he was screaming, and it just fueled her. This is one of the worst examples of what we had to witness.
    She can walk out of the house after doing something like that as if nothing happened, lie with a straight face, and has zero remorse or feeling of responsibility. She is a "victim".

      I hear your point BUT to paint Depp as angelic is wrong. Raquel confirmed she shoved heard first and her ex denies it. Depp is also up for assault towards a coworker. The things can't be used to say what their relationship was like. Even a juror has said they thought it was bidirectional abuse. Yes she has lied but Depp has also lied and we can't weigh that on scales of justice only that they're both not great. She shouldn't have done the tro and I don't know why she did it..... to get in there first maybe. She Def. Shouldn't have done the op ed. However if a juror thinks it was bidirectional then the outcome of the case was incorrect... it would be that neither proved their case and both defamed each other ✌

    I found watching Amber Heard testify traumatizing. Her behavior reminded me so much of my ex husband, I started having nightmares again. Whatever abuses she may have suffered, are overwhelmed by the weight of abuse she heaps. I sympathize with whatever abuse she may have suffered. No one deserves abuse. However, I empathize with Johnny. He was dealing with a personality that could, and would never be satisfied. She seemed to enjoy any pain he expressed, while he didn't have a similar reaction to her pain. I don't know about Amber, but my ex turned out to be a physical and emotional sadist. He enjoys others pain. I saw some indication this was a possibility with Amber...and it brought me back to a place where a locked door isn't enough to keep from getting hurt, and neither is moving out. Terrifying.

She's not entitled to use the plight of others as a sword and shield.

She didn't even accuse him of hitting her on her own tapes, much less committing sexual abuse.
      DV and SA is not something you pick up in your 50s and reactive abuse is attributed to the abuser not the one reacting. It seems like the only reason anyone capitulates to any part of her claim is because she refuses to admit that she lied. Narcissists lie 'til they die.

      Both abuse & false accusations can happen to both genders and it shows a person cares about power, rather than ethical principles If they stand for a gender-first movement instead of ethics.
      Likewise, i wouldn't support a men vs women's movement, i would support a principle about false accusations priven in court to be properly penalized (as would any fair person imo).

      I think she was actually physically abused, but it was more akin to JD restraining her during her physical outbursts. That's still domestic violence. In my practice, I've dealt with clients who are male and are struck by females who break a nail when striking their boyfriends. The boyfriend is successfully hit with a DV charge. In fact, in my state, throwing a phone of your partner is enough to satisfy a DV charge and make it stick. So I am mystified how the jury didn't find one instance of abuse by JD. That said, the lie about donating money and the photoshopped pics allow juries to justify simplistic thinking. You lie about one thing, you lie about all things. Trials are not about truth.

    That whole line about JD promising her global humiliation - she's skewing that too. He wanted to divorce peacefully, quietly and move on with their lives. He told her that it would not be good for her, ultimately, to throw him under the bus. This was part of the same conversation where she admitted that she filed the TRO only just so she would not get evicted from the penthouse and he reassured her that he would not rip her out of her home, that he would give her plenty of time to figure out her next move.
    When she wouldn't give up her BS, he was like....ok. If that's what she wants, global humiliation, I'll give it to her. But that was in communication with other people when he realized he needed to start getting HIS evidence of his innocence from other people and telling them to forward texts and other info.

      the inaccuracy of it meant the jury said it was defamatory, I agree that it was factually wrong on minor details BUT I heartily disagree that its defamatory as the Jury upheld the other notion by Depp & his lawyer that it was a planned "Hoax"
      you can't be defamed for hoaxing.. as a hoaxer, over minor details..
      its akin to a murderer asserting defamation of character because reporters initially thought they killed their victim with a porcelain fruit bowl when actually it was a glass punch bowl - the public image is well earned by the perpetrator, the assertions are largely accurate.
      speculation by the most popular YT lawyers is that a jury member may have been reticent about awarding Depp money & this count was to appease them about Depps lawyer being too aggressive by essentially 'throwing a bone' to Amber while still saying she is an aggressor and a hoax artist.

    I think it was a fair trial. They excluded the most damning piece of evidence against her, which was the recording of the aftermath of her cutting off his finger, that also proved she lied under oath in both trials. She was proven to have faked so many claims and lacked one single piece of evidence that showed he did anything to her. There was only one text that possibly proved he hurt her, and that was that he kicked her on an airplane (apparently shoved her with his foot down the aisle), but even then, she embellished it and added so much to that moment that she only incriminated herself more.
    You could see the anger on her face after leaving the courthouse after the verdict, which showed right then and there her true feelings and that she had learned nothing. Another thing she apparently lacks is the ability to consider consequences for her behavior or to accept consequences when she experiences them, as she continues to try to lie her way out of the consequences of her lying, pushing the public she wants so badly even further away. Maybe this is because Amber knows she always gets away with things and breaking the law due to her appearance and celebrity. She has no intention to pay any fines. All her money is going towards her PR blitz of the same lies.
    What she really needs is to go to jail for repeated perjury before she files an appeal and wastes more tax payer resources. But maybe bad attention is better than no attention for Amber. Maybe the worst thing that can happen to her is that everyone just ignore her and forget she ever existed, forcing her to live like most of us, in relative obscurity.

    Although initially it sounds like Dr Grande was refuting what Amber Heard was saying in the interview, he actually seemed determined to find some way to allow her to keep playing the role of victim. He appeared to be excusing many of the horrible things she did to Johnny Depp, by asserting she was just responding to his behavior.
    While no one is saying that Johnny Depp committed no wrongs in the relationship, the overwhelming evidence indicated that Heard was the perpetrator of the abuse. Yet Dr Grande tries to claim that her aggression was really just her response to being afraid. I don't know if it's because Amber Heard is a woman or because she's attractive that keeps Dr G from admitting that she is very much an abuser. If the situation was reversed, and the evidence pointed to Johnny Depp as one committed the abuse, I don't believe Dr Grande would've allowed him all the excuses that he was using for Heard.

      I can’t figure out if the Doc has a thing about addicts (he seems to think that being an addict means you have to be guilty of everything someone accused you of) or if he’s sexist (can’t believe a mere woman is capable of such destruction) or is it that he’s just what we British call ‘c*ntstruck’ by her beauty and charisma.
      I would not blame him if it’s the last. It’s her trademark. I would say all of her relationships rely upon that charisma to start with. ‘Come into my parlour’ says the spider to the fly…
      That’s why she had no friends in court except her poor sister. She bedazzles and enchants, then chews up and spits out, repeatedly.

    After listening to the audio tapes and all of the evidence, I can never agree that Johnny was ever abusive to her. He loved her, and when listening to the tapes one hears here over the top verbal, psychological and emotional abuse of Johnny Depp. He was always calm and trying to talk to her in attempt to keep her escalation down. The only time he would yell and verbally abuse her is when she started to strike out at him. He would usually spout off and then retreat to a bathroom to keep them both safe. She claims that Johnny retreating to the bathroom was abusive to her. I have also heard the whole tape of the Australian incident in which Johnny's finger tip was severed off, the whole tape was not allowed as Johnny's assistant, who is heard trying to talk Amber down and how to get her back to LA and also the evidence they were finding, has passed away and of course couldn't testify to what he saw.

      I agree, having experienced someone quite similar, it's the tapes of continued verbal, psychological and emotional abuse which are so familiar to me. Interestingly, the way that Amber plays out these scenarios with the police, media are also a similar pattern, Johnny was very fortunate she was not so successful with those. Again, Johnny is in the relatively rare position of being able to afford to confront her and the institutions who have supported her. There is no way an ordinary individual could do this, apart from the cost, most people would be emotional wrecks, reputations and careers destroyed. I wasn't aware of the reason for the lack of scrutiny of the severing of Johnny's finger tip.
      In terms of how this plays out longer term, I think Amber's opportunities to address her lies, mental illnesses, disorders are all dwindling. From my experience, she is most likely to remain in this twlight zone. Given the extreme and hugely public nature of her behaviour, I think she will be severely affected by in the medium term, and it will be very difficult to recover. Additionally, the Media coverage, such as this interview, is feeding off her illnesses and making it worse.

She had a chance to tell her story and because she wasn’t believed she is saying that this was a setback for women. I completely disagree, her claims of DV were taken very seriously, but the evidence did not match what she was saying. Unfortunately, this interview did not bring anything that we didn’t already know, she doubled down on her claims, and did not own any responsibility again. Furthermore, she said that she still loves Johnny! I am so puzzled by this statement. If anyone reading this wants to offer some insight, please do so.

    Thank You Sir. I got drawn into watching the trial because I genuinely wanted to support who I thought was a fellow victim. It became clear to me very quickly that this was just another acting role for Ms. Heard and I was deeply offended by her arrogance, particularly as it pertained to assuming she could say the most obviously false things and everyone else would simply believe her because she's so smart and we're so stupid. As someone who has been struck in the face "too many times to count" I was appalled by her assertion that she could show up the next day or even the next week looking perfect because of makeup and ice. She made me feel ashamed of my injuries and inability to smile without showing pain or cover up swelling. Even though I knew she was lying, she made me feel weak and deficient. Maybe he did hit her or do something physical but what she described is not possible. She has to have completely fabricated her abuse stories for her own aggrandizement or she greatly, greatly exaggerated them. She's done a terrible disservice to her fellow human beings.

      What Amber did is what many masterful manipulators do, play on people's consciousness, by throwing out into the air without context to feed social stereotypes and norms. The "global innialation" text was a text to JD's sister. He sent it in 2018, after Amber put out the Op-Ed piece accusing him of dv and sexual assault. Amber's Team got their hands on so of JD's personal text and aired them in court without any context. Extremely manipulative. So glad she lost.

    With all due respect to dr. Grande, but I think he shouldn't claim that the verdict was "unfair" unless he saw the court case, I did and I think that the judgment was more than fair, actually to the fault as I don't believe that Johnny's attorney, was malicious in his statement, as he just stated of what HE believes happened, Amber destroyed her case herself with her constant lies and inability to take responsibly for ANYTHING, it wasn't jurors/ judge being "unfair" it was her inability to keep her story straight, the fakeness of her invisible tears and straight-up hatred she showed towards Camile Vasquez, not to mention credible witnesses on Johnny's side when her only witness was her sister, who's testimony should be taken with a Mount Everest big grain of salt because of her association with Amber, not to mention she seems to be equally as vile, disgusting and willing to lie when it suits her human being as Heard.

    Dr. Grande- From reading into what you've said on this case, it seems like you believe that AH and JD are both responsible. I watched a lot of the case, not because I give a rat's ass about either actor - rather I was interested in how the dynamics of abuse would play out. Many who have experienced IPV, like me, took special interest in the case because of these features. I've seen a few other mental health clinicians on YT try to do a deep dive on this (with very few providing even satisfactory analysis), and it seems an overwhelming majority of legal and mental health practitioners have come out to say that AH was the instigator of the abuse. Personally, I feel strongly, based on what I've seen of the case, I believe AH IS the abuser. I found Dr. Curry very credible and her diagnoses to be spot on. I would love to hear YOUR thoughts on this as a clinician and a deep dive into how you read both parties and see their respective responsibility in this dispute.

She could only continue with that way of living for ONE YEAR & finally faked the Abuse & filed for Divorce & changed the Locks & notified the media.... & Became part of the Me To Movement... She was winning & JD was losing... Until - Camera's were in the Courtroom & he had Great Lawyer's & JD Won & Public Opinion turned against her...

    One of the most chilling paradoxes of this case is AH insisting "I have never called myself a victim" while at the same time she has been constantly wrapping herself in the flag of victimhood. But, while she may have successfully provoked JD info reacting (and to that extent she may be correct that he is surrounded by a phalanx of highly paid erasers / enablers), it was clear that she was a practiced instigator, her DVRO was tactical not protective (leaked to TMZ to humiliate Depp) & the ACLU op ed was also tactical, based at least in part on prior fakery, & timed to humiliate Depp while she rose. I think she enjoyed fights because, first, she got the testosterone hit from being aggressive and, later, she got the dopamine hit from self pity being a victim.

Equally, you wouldn't struggle to find others yelling their support for her, and her claims that she was given a rotten deal at trial. It just shows how polarising the situation was. Would be interesting to hear your take on why such polarisation happens, and why people seem to dig their heels in further no matter what they hear. Is it cognitive dissonance, or something else?

In my experience blames the narcistist his/her 'victim' of exactly that which the narcistist is doing to the victim (accusing and blaming Johnny for being violent towards her, means she was violent towards him, turning tables... Whenever they say "i never... " That's exactly what they're doing ("i could never Hurt Johnny") When she acuses him of doing drugs and him scaring her with his behaviour, it was the other way around.

      People like this always end up exposing themselves. I know from personal experience.
      Went through three years of hell with an emotional leech of a partner, and they weren't very happy when they crossed my final red line in the sand and got dumped. Embarked on a campaign to isolate me from my friends and demonise me so that I wouldn't get freelance work any more. Refused to take responsibility, was totally convinced that they were the victim of emotional abuse and that I deserved it. Started leaking emails and chat logs after I asked them to stop. Didn't stop when I tried to take my own life. I was made to feel utterly worthless and for a while I genuinely believed I was an irredeemable abuser.
      But then everybody slowly came crawling back over the following months to apologise for me: my ex had been lying about their financial situation to get donations, and was spending them all not on utilities or rent, but on - get this - porn and videogames. When it emerged that they had been doing this they dug the hole deeper and again played the victim, except this time it didn't work. They didn't seem to comprehend why lying like this was wrong and why people were angry. As usual it was blamed on me as if I'm some kind of master manipulator super villain. No apologies given or responsibility taken. Permanent manchild for all eternity.
      I see a lot of parallels with Amber Heard. These people simply operate on another plane of reality to the rest of us. You can never understand or trust people like Amber Heard or my ex.

      Recordings like the "I don't punch you I hit you" tape show that she's more or less aware of what she does even in a fit of rage, she just refuses to take responsibility for her actions and opts to gaslight and victim-blame.

I’m sorry but with the amount of abuse she said she endured, she would have wound up in the hospital at some point, because some of that she talks about, there is no “toughing” it out and going out in public, that is the biggest bunch of crap I’ve heard of.

I mean this was AFTER she had faked a black eye and got a restraining order (when she knew he just left for a tour in Europe) and then broke their settlement agreement by defaming him in the Washington Post. An article specifically held back until the day before her movie premiere to boost her career by profiting off the Me Too movement. So it makes more sense to me that when he says she's "begging" for it he's in effect saying she's basically ASKING me to expose her and all the lies she's told. Like she was trying to call his bluff that he'd sit there and take the libel. So in that context it doesn't bother me.

    Let's take note that a juror did an interview. They didn't believe Johnny hit Amber. Just like most of the world. You need to understand: if you are constantly taunting and berating someone they will eventually say things back. It's how everybody works. If that makes Johnny and abuser, then every single person in the world is an abuser. Amber was always recording everybody in her life. If he had actually physically assaulted her then she would actually have evidence. If he had assaulted her like she claimed in Austrailia, she would have had to go to the hospital. She would have had marks in the photoshoot she took soon after. She used at least two pictures multiple times in the trial and called her make up kit a bruise kit, which is what they use to MAKE BRUISES. The bruise kit is also in the ice cream picture at rhe bottom. People found someone using that exacts same kit and it's called bruises and abrasions. The austrailia aftermath recording wasn't allowed in the trial because other voices were on it. She is screaming, crying, and apologizing as he's leaving and they are looking for his fingertip. The two on the tape are trying to figure out who to send to take her back to the US because they didn't want to send someone she could manipulate. She was uninjured and hysterical because she thought she really lost him "that time".

    Honestly, Dr Grande's take on this is a little confusing. The reason she lost, was not simply because of her bad strategy, her poor acting, her narcissistic delusions, her lack of public support, her bad team! It was because the "mountain" of evidence she offered was GAS LIGHTING the jury, the judge, the public , the true victims and even her blind supporters- nothing she offered proved what she intended! Quite the opposite! Her poor lawyers struggled to pull out tricks out of their hats! And she is continuing to gas light all of us with this interview! I honestly would like to hear the points that her supporters make in her defense, that you Dr Grande found "good"! Just because Johnny is "richer", more famous, a better actor and a man, does not mean he does not deserve justice and clearing of his name!

    I fail to see how the trial was unfair. The judge did her job and the jury did theirs. Amber Heard lost because she could not back up her claims, not because the trial was unfair (regardless of how many freaking llamas were lined up outside the court). I wouldn't be surprised if Depp's attorneys filed a motion to cease and desist and the judge granted him an injunction. Maybe a few nights in jail for contempt would shut her up.
    Those of us who watched the trial learned that Amber Heard couldn't tell the truth if her hair was on fire.

      The trial WAS unfair, just not the way SHE thought it was. She didn't deserve a cent. JD didn't do anything to her, his attorney did, and regardless of what he said, it had ZERO impact on her career.
      JD on the other hand lost 2 movie roles from her lies, just ONE of which was worth $50 million.
      So he got screwed because SOME on the jury wanted to be "fair" and give AH a little money and not be too mean to her even though she deserved to get hit with at least a $60 million settlement.
      Oh, and then let's not forget the BS that the state doesn't allow the jurors to know there is a $350K limit on punitive damages, so they thought they were giving him another $5 million only to have that basically wiped out.

The manipulation, the gaslighting, the inability to take responsibility or apologise etc. It was all there. And so obvious that it almost hurt to hear it. I’m sure anyone who’s endured similar experiences in relationships could sense the dynamic between JD & AH and understand just how much JD suffered at the hands of this abusive narc.
      Her narcissism is the reason why AH (being so blind to her behaviour and her negative traits, and so quick to blame everyone else) will never be able to comprehend why it is we don’t support her stories, why she lost the court case, why we all see right thru her lies. She’s the absolute definition of the typical narc abuser imo.

      Agreed. Even if there's any truth to her claims, there's just too many inconsistencies between her testimony of her claims, the evidence she presented for them and the actions she took at the time. Her claim about the assault with the bottle, for example, should've resulted in her sustaining horrible injuries and yet, there's no medical records or pictures of that incident, yet, she took pictures of events and injuries that seemed very minor by comparison (not to mention, there's elements to believe that evidence was fabricated). Johnny Depp may truly not be the perfect victim, but she was lying through and through, imo, I believe her to be the sole perpetrator.

    I can somewhat relate to that dynamic: my Mom was a domineering narcissist and my father was the peacemaker; I purposely chose to model my father’s behavior. So, like Johnny, I fell into the same dynamic in marrying, until the verbal abuse left me depressed & suicidal. After much counseling, I learned to identify a narcissist’s attitudes and behavior, and not get caught up.

  • @RG-zn2fp

    Dr. Grande, I usually agree with you but in this case I believe your assertion of mutual abuse and defamation is wrong. I watched the whole trial from start to finish and there is absolutely no evidence of JD being abusive. The "mean" comments he sent were to his friends after she would have put him through another cycle of mental and physical abuse. He was venting to his friends which probably kept him sane. If roles were reversed and a women was venting to her friends about a abusive monster she lived with it would not be framed as mutual combat. Also, logically the abuser or AH in this case was never meant to see the "mean" texts. In fact the texts he sent directly to AH were all apology texts which lines up with him as the abused. A person who has been beaten down and is convinced he/she somehow deserves the DV. Second, JD was NOT found to have defamed AH. That was a statement his past lawyer had made. The reason it even received consideration by the jury is he implied others were involved directly with her DV hoax. I really think by presenting it as a win against JD by AH is a little reckless. It will leave a person who had not watched the trial with the wrong impression. The impression they were both guilty.The thing I think you should consider is that it was JD who is not the perfect victim. You have spoke of the intolerant way substance abuse people can be viewed even in the realm of mental health providers. By having substance abuse problems I wonder if some of your bias may be showing without you realizing it?. Consider the fact he is male as another step in a uphill battle of proving his case. We all need to take this moment in time to praise JD for his bravery. I am a women and I was in a abusive relationship for 7 years. My ex was mentally and physically abusive. While watching the trial I found AH repulsive as she was caught in lie after lie. She was the damaging force to real DV survivors. Also. As a side note my uncle was mentally and physically abused by his 2nd wife for 18 years. He found no help when he begged for it. Just a biased sociaty and justice system. When the cops were called by him he went to jail. Even if he was clearly the only one injured. Sometimes the women would go so low as to injure herself to be more believed or use bruises that could clearly be seen as restraint injury. It never mattered he was always found at blame. He learned to not even defend himself By restraining her. He would lock himself in basement. She would taunt him and insult his masclity relentlessly while slapping, kicking, Clawing and punching him. He eventually blammed himself and learned to always be sorry. Also. He used alcohol as a coping mechanism and eventually drank himself to death. My point is we need to be really careful with what we say about JD's legal triumph. He was found 100% innocent of DV so you repeating the narrative of mutual abuse is irresponsible. I hope It will encourage more male victims to come out and not feel as if there masculinity will be questioned or they will be shamed.

    JD and AH were not "just as awful" to each other. AH picked and picked and picked on him and would hit him if he didn't respond. Then he would either leave the room or go elsewhere out of the house. She would yell at him and insult him for trying to get away from her abuse and call him names and try to get a rise out of him. How is that being "just as awful or terrible" equally to each other?

As soon as I heard the audio with her berating him I knew. He’s all demure, she’s cruel. Abuse victims wouldn’t dare talk like that to their abuser. And the abuser wouldn’t try to get away from the victim to hide. She did this to herself.

      She was found "liable". Not "guilty". It was a civil case, and guilt is only established in the criminal courts.
      It's probably worth noting that unless criminal charges are brought for assault, or perjury, or whatever, and a conviction secured against her, that it is not a legal fact that Heard is either an abuser, or a liar. This is because the standard of proof in civil courts is lower.

    It is dangerous to call it “mutual abuse”. It is not a crime to argue with your spouse and say mean things. We all are capable of behaving in such a way. But to the extent of beating your husband, cutting his finger and extorting money, that is irreparable damage done. She needs help and won’t accept accountability. Her issue is with herself and she’s continuing to abuse him even further in the media.

      Mutual abuse is a term is couple‘s therapy and is in fact one of the most common types of domestic abuse there is. I think one must be careful not to use the term to minimize the abuse suffered by one party, but in this case I think they were mutually abusive towards each other. That does not mean that Amber Heard did not defame Johnny Depp; she lied about SA, and instances of physical assault.
      Johnny Depp was emotionally abusive to Amber Heard- he called her names and insulted her. It is literally on tape and he admitted to some pretty ugly text messages (to friends about Heard) in court. His admittance of these things was key to his case. Amber Heard was physically, physiologically, and emotionally abusive to Johnny Depp-again she admits to hitting him on on an audio tape, whilst gaslighting him by minimizing the harm she did to him. They were mutually abusive, even if the harm was not equal.

The idea that nothing is forgiven, and all "wrongs" are likely future weapons, makes life with such people utterly miserable.

    Great analysis! It feels really satisfying to break down the specifics of what makes her behavior so repugnant. The lack of insight is what makes everyone laugh at her...the audacity, arrogance, ignorance....the fact she doesn't even tolerate the "possibility" she could have contributed to her own (misrerable) situation. To imply the jury, entire legal system, and millions of observers are all too stupid to understand fact from fiction, and that we are all easily manipulated by actors is extremely offensive lol. Narcs can't read a room. Her personality disordered behaviors should become educational videos.
    Malignant Narcissism in particular----I'd love to see your analysis on Ariel Castro's court speech during his sentencing. The same INFURIATING lack of insight/accountability as Amber, as John Wayne Gacy, as Jodi Arias, as Diane Downs, as Casey Anthony....I could go on and on. I include Amber in this category because I personally believe she is capable of killing a romantic partner. She minimizes, normalizes and gaslights whenever she was asked to be accountable for violence/cruelty and all it did was enrage her further. Despite cutting off JD's finger with glass, she showed no signs she was willing to change because violence was a justifiable response in her mind. A very dangerous way of thinking.
    I was diagnosed with BPD and when I was younger and less aware, so I understand exactly what she felt when she freaked out on the audio tapes.... I resorted to slapping and hitting my ex's when they did something like cheat or abandon me (in my irrational/emotional mind, I felt they deserved to feel the pain they were inflicting on me, I wanted them to stop hurting me--BPD emotions feel like torture). Incredible lack of insight I had, admittedly. I am thankful today that I do not allow toxic behavior with others in my life anymore which means I will never permit myself to be toxic, either. Violence is not okay, period. I take responsibility for allowing someone into my life after they wronged me, I take responsibility for not managing my own emotions and responses to cruel behavior appropriately. If only Amber could see it's that easy to end the cycle. Unfortunately, there is more than BPD going on with her....the malice and pathological lying/cruelty/grandiosity/entitlement....we all know which direction that points in Cluster B.

      @ca2082 Год назад +4

      Both the case in the UK and in the US were NOT criminal cases, they were defamation; because of Amber's allegation about being SA and DV people focused on that element. No one within the judicial system both in the UK and the US have declared either of them guilty of abuse. In the UK Amber was not the defendant, their only job was to prove that the evidence they based their article on was believable; all they needed was sources that were in their opinion credible enough for The Sun (tabloid) not if Amber Heard herself was credible enough that would have to be separate. So the UK ruing basically says that The Sun had a legit reason for publishing their tabloid headline about him being abusive because the Washington Post article which we now know was aided by the attorneys from the ACLU...which I guess to the British judge saw it as sufficient. Personally, I find the ties the judge had with people connected to Amber very suspicious...Now, what makes the US defamation case MORE thorough is because Amber is the defendant. The burden to show she is telling the truth falls on her more than Depp since she is the defendant. Therefore the evidence submitted in the US is 10x more substantial (a lot) than in the UK trial. What makes this US case against Heard so vital and more important than the UK is that a jury found that not only is Amber's evidence insufficient and her story not as credible but that she did it out of malice.
