      @@Flowerhag In treatment you are correct, you are supposed to take what your clients say at face value, unless they have some sort of narcissistic or antisocial personality disorders. However, as a forensic psychologist, the job is to bring facts and science about the personality -and possible trauma- disorders of the people implicated, and correlate that to what's being alleged. In this case, she definitely should've met with JD, and she should have done several psychometric tests just like Dr. Curry did with AH, after she met with JD. Her testimony is incredibly biased, lacks scientific foundation, and honestly sounds a lot like gossip at least in my opinion.

    Nurse here. If I ever had any inclination that my patient is going through abuse I would write it out in DETAIL using exact wording the patient is reporting but also separating that from my personal observations of the patient. This is so sketchy that you see a giant empty box where it indicates to the tester to describe what happened in DETAIL, and in patients own wording! If I saw someone else’s work like this I’d seriously question this persons work ethics because it is AT BEST lazy but AT WORST, incomplete and NEGLIGENT

For an expert/professional of her level that is very surprising to me and especially since she knew this was gonna be such a high profile case!

      At the very least she should have written 'please refer to document x dated y' so there is context for why nothing is put in there. Each document is stand alone when viewed so you cannot just leave important boxes without relevant inormation if you don't at least link to an associated report/document. Surely Dr Hughes was aware this was for a court case so should have been EXTRA careful when dotting the i's and crossing the t's on a document. In a (criminal) court in the UK this would be ripped apart by solicitors due to it not being properly completed. An assessment should be able to stand alone as a complete document. Other assessments/documents can be referenced for additional information and context but each should be able to stand on its own merits. She's paid $500 an hour to produce this? Jeez, I'm a non-qualified Healthcare worker and I'm paid £12 an hour by the NHS to produce a higher quality of documentation. Clearly I'm in the wrong business!

      Diagnosed CPTSD survivor over here, this entire case has been incredibly triggering for me and I can’t help but notice the similarities between amber and my abuser. The things she said, the way she reacts to Johnny on the recordings, even her facial expressions are so similar to the way my abuser would react to me. He would always accuse me of overreacting or exaggerating and he never “hit me that hard” or “if you try to tell anyone I’ll just say it was self defense”.
      I felt so powerless and really believed no one would believe me if I spoke out.
      Victims DO NOT react like Amber, they react like Johnny. Even though every DV situation is different, the behaviors are almost always the same. Which sucks because I really wanted to believe her and support her when she first came out. For some reason I just couldn’t get behind her like I do with every victim, there were just way too many red flags. But her nail in the coffin were the recordings for me. A victim would NEVER speak to their abuser like they EVER especially if they were concerned of being hit. People seem to forget physical abuser literally will not start without emotional/mental abuser has already taken place. Abusers well wear you down till you’re completely isolated with no self esteem, THEN they hit you. We need to remember it’s not the act of hitting that the abuser likes, it’s the total domination and control they have over their victim.
      This is why so many were able to pick up on Amber’s red flags and why the public opinion shifted. Most of us who have actually been the victim can see right through all her lies. She manipulated us the same way she manipulated Johnny which is why we’re all angry. She should be charged criminally for her past actions. What she did is NOT ok and she made a mockery out of all the work victims and advocates have done to raise awareness of the severity of DV. She deserves accountability

I'm not a doctor BUT victims will are being abused to the level she alleges would never intentionally draw attention to themselves & agitate or instigate an argument bc they are afraid. Now there's cases where the women are also very violent & physical & engage in that as well & they aren't afraid. Tho typically in those instances the woman is the more violent of the 2 & the guy is typically the more passive & just reacting. But in those cases I wouldn't describe the woman as there victim.

      With this lady, she's manipulating questions asked and statements made, so that they're always going to empathize with Amber. At times she's very sloppy at doing this. You can tell she's walking a tight rope where she's almost, nearly, might be, lying for Amber.

    I think Dr. Hughes testified yesterday that she DID administer a test to look for feigning but she heavily skewed the results to 'correct' for the responses of abuse victims appearing as if they're lying when they're not. That's why Amber scored a "zero". She might have scored higher, but Dr. Hughes then discounted all of those points. This stood out to me because, as a scientist, I know this isn't how you analyze data. There should have been questions baked into the test to account for this. You don't just get the raw score and then subtract an arbitrary amount because of an opinion that a specific client should be given the benefit of the doubt. It comes across as the clinician wanting the score to be zero and making it so after the fact. If Dr. Hughes isn't going to cite actual research showing this is standard operating procedure across her field, it comes across as bias. The test is the test and the score is the score. As someone who made a living analyzing scientific data, this felt off to me. Very wibbly wobbly.

      I've been tested and had the test provider report that according to the test I have 0 symptoms and diagnosis. They then compared this to notes from my interviews and hypothesized that I under report my symptoms when tested. (What Dr Curry referred to when she talked about people unintentionally trying to report less symptoms). They talked to me about this to understand how I thought when I did the test. And then they did a different test after they had a talk with me to understand how I thought. They then compared the new test with the old one, and both with my interviews and considered if this supported their first hypothesis. They then did a few other tests after these two and then concluded my way of answering the first test was a symptom in it self and that all the tests together with the interviews indicated a diagnosis. So if Dr Hughes felt like the ms Heard was answering "wrong", she should have given other tests (like Dr Curry) to prove her feeling. Not just correct it (unless the test it self has that as a possibility, which it doesn't seem like).

    Licensed therapist here🙋🏻‍♀️
    In my 20+ yrs of clinical experience, I’ve honestly not seen any client w/ PTSD related to partner violence & abuse of any kind react quite like Heard has up until this point. While there can be wide variation in how survivors present over time & there’s not a “right” or “wrong” way to speak or act, there are patterns of presentation that are seen more often, that’s all. With such detailed & graphic descriptions, especially from Dr. Hughes, it’s not as common to see a survivor maintain a stone-faced & stoic facial expression after hours & days of hearing horrific details of their abuse. I’ve seen many survivors present in a detached & expressionless way, but there is usually a crack that occurs at some point, even if it’s subtle. In the face of day after day of focusing on & describing horrific & graphic details in a public arena such as a court room, it’s common to see some crack or shift, even if subtle. I haven’t seen any shift from Heard yet, except in her dress & hair styles & that seems bizarre & calculating in how she’s mirroring Depp &, at one point, Dr. Curry. If you look at Depp’s presentation over the same period, there’s a detached quality similar in parts to Heard’s, but we see multiple small cracks/subtle changes in Depp’s affect, behavior, eye contact, tone of voice, & more. Many survivors find it more bearable to share about the abuse if they detach their feelings from the actual event(s). It can be protective to a degree, particularly in children, but some survivors continue to present like this for years if they don’t receive any help & support. With that kind of detachment, there is often some dissociating as well, but it’s not as common for a survivor to maintain that same stance for hours & days, & in the face of so many intense triggers, recounting details of the abuse, & while strangers are watching. For many survivors, it doesn’t get much more triggering than what happens in a courtroom. It’s more common to see survivors rush thru &/or skip over details while recounting so they can be finished, & often need guidance & genuine support to be able to slow it down while still maintaining a level of emotional safety. In a person like Heard who is highly reactive emotionally as a baseline - which has been repeatedly presented in the evidence & witnesses so far - those cracks show up somewhere, even if it’s just a subtle change in facial expressions.
    The person who looks & behaves most like a survivor of partner abuse is Depp. The contrast b/w the two of them is glaring, imo. Depp presented in a detached way for much of his testimony, but there were multiple, small variations in body language, tone of voice, speech volume, eye contact & more.
    I went into this trial wanting to believe Heard as I didn’t know all of the specifics & it didn’t occur to me that Heard could be as manipulative, cruel, dishonest & calculating to do all that she’s done. For someone who has been as cold & abusive to a partner as Heard has been (we’ve listened to lots of audio to this effect, & some video & texts), there is almost always some kind of past abuse pattern. The fact that Depp is 58 yrs old & has never had any intimate partner or other female accuse him of any physical abuse makes it very difficult to believe that he suddenly became this monster when he met Heard. Also, since his divorce from Heard, there has been nothing in the press (that I’ve seen) about other females recounting similar experiences & behaviors from Depp. In over 20 yrs of practice, I’ve never worked w/ any client, male or female, who suddenly becomes a cruel & rage-filled abuser mid-life, absent a significant & profound injury or event such as a traumatic brain injury. In my experience, there has always been past incidences of some type of abusive &/or violent behavior, & more often than not, there is an identifiable pattern. Heard, on the other hand, has a pattern of intimate partner abuse as the perpetrator and cruelty and abusive behavior towards others as well. The math seems clear to me on this though I’m certainly watching the rest of the trial.

There can be a wide range of feelings, behaviors, facial expressions, body language, tone of voice, & more, & it’s critical to look at all of the factors that relate to a client’s trauma, & not make sweeping conclusions from isolated parts.

      Only been able to see some of the court case. Depps psychologist accepted his lawyers' word that she had borderline at depps dinner in his home, b4 even assessing her for the job to oppose AH..that means both dr hughes and depps psychologist ( who wasnt registered or apprived by the board of psychologist at the time), could both be invalid? Depp's psych was chosen to give them more insight about AH right ? I personally believe that sort of female was chosen for AH to react to, or feel familiarity with her esthetic appearance...perhaps amber, got sucked in from all angles. She was getting set up and controlled from someone? all his staff were controlling her, for transportation by car plane, accomodation, nursing, assistant, security...who is there paying boss? Is the lawyer setting up all the background to AH's controll or jd? The nurse tried to force her to be heavily drugged after the finger was found? Omg!!! I wonder if that is making Britney Squirm hearing all this control via mental health analysis and drug abuse by depps medics? What a nightmare of shocking events! She may be lying, sneaking and exaggerating but he is guilty of the disgusting threatening, derrogattory name calling, internal sexual abuse. She is guilty of other things as well. However i smell several rats... this is all so familiar, marylin, princess diana...is anyone looking for similarities ir just going to burn n drown the witch? I cant believe this could happen again. He should accept the defamation based on admitting one incedent, it does not mean he did everything and doesnt mean she is innocent. Neither of them are innocent. If we're all addicted to this waste of time court case i stead of rescuing ukraines in mariupol...? how badly was johnny addicted to drugs? He was in madness, maybe grief loss depression self harm, mid life crises ( due to d& a abuse, emotionally / mentally like he is still in his teens, they fell in love with their similarities...drug alcohol sex ego losing, using one another as a support, both rebound from breaking up longterm relationships to continue their affair, their infatuation with one another under the influence if substances, they met, abused, married, abused, divorced while on/ off their faces...only realizing the damage they caused one another while sobering up now. Depp knnows what he did behind closed doors, he will have to look at himself in the mirror , if he doesnt admit the demons will grab hold of him, he has to be braver than what he is already. Cop a little loss in the court room, as if the jury or anyone has the answer ..
      Help him lose the case, then the truth will set him free... then he can really win...the fans still love him anyway...Depp will need a decade to sober up. He has been an addict for decades...his attitude, mental disorders, will take years to stablise. they are both d& a addicts. He was asleep in the bathroom on the plane? His security witnessed it so its the truth? 🤣😂🙈🙉🙊!! Would u trust any of them with ur young daughters welfare, health and safety? If jd is so innocent, would u let your young daughter ( or young son...he could also be another hidden bi_ sexual who hasnt come out...yet) share a future with him? They are both so ill. He is lucky he is rich n famous...he can afford all the resources. He is nearly 60? He has had so many years learning how to do business, legal, career deals...shes so young and insecure, immature...they thought she would be good for him...was he an innocent, straight guy at her stage in life? He never lied being an addict all his life? What did he have to do to score? Please take things into consideration. Why would he want too be with someone her age? If he was grieving for vanessa and their family life severed...hiw would someine who is suicidal, self harming react during ongoing episodes if rage during grief/loss cycles he possibly experienced . Please consider background,hx of mental health, behavioural issues, the type if people he was drawn to...very dark. If he walks away scott free...the message to anyone wanting to abuse someone behind closed doors, is go ahead, u can get away with it...victims will be too fearful of: truth being twisted, blamed , to report or speak out because of counter attacks. AH should not have publicised what happened. He must not win, any person violated and abused that has been framed and coerced will suffer. She will suffer post court case anyway. She is so young with a child to raise, please ease up on her. Let them deal with their demons, monsters and recover in privacy.

I’ve been researching the FULL recordings (not just the deliberate clips used in court) and there’s one recording that JD himself took (you can hear amber is on speaker phone and his voice is the one present in front of the recorder) and in that phone call he tries to set her up by saying, “I lost a finger man!” And she says, “what are you talking about? You cut your own finger! When you busted the phone!” And that’s what she testified to on the stand (on day 15 or 16). Johnny Depp was my first male loce as a little girl and I will always love him. Im sorry im that way but I can’t help it. I used to have either the Cry-Baby or Edward Scissorhands VHS playing for me to go to sleep. My mom even rolls her eyes when I ask her about that cuz I used to scream and cry if I couldn’t have “my Johnny” to go to sleep to. So my love for him is deep lol. But I can still be UNBIASED! It’s SO obvious that AH is GROSSLY over exaggerating the events and JD is GROSSLY minimizing his involvement in the abuse. And even IF he never touched a hair on her head, he’s already guilty of mental, emotional, and psychological abuse from what we’ve heard from the tapes submitted into evidence. And it blows my mind that people can’t see how powerful JD is. He clearly has the BEST legal team, PR team, etc. He is very intentionally making sure the world is on his side. This has been done extremely methodically and it is SCARY to see how the world is in this online herd mentality against AH. I believe she’s vile for all the crap she did as well, but the way people are saying “Johnny is just a gentle man and he’s the victim” while saying it was ALL her, completely ignoring everything we’ve heard him do in the tapes ALONE…that is freaking SCARY! And YES, exactly like another Marilyn! When a powerful man wants a woman to disappear, she disappears.

      You can imagine why. Here's a person - a therapist - who really seems to care about you and doesn't judge you in any way. You experienced a lack of love and caring, or perhaps severe abuse as a small child, and it damaged your ability to form healthy attachments. This can mean you're starving for that validation, approval and care, just as a small child seeks approval from adults.
      In theory, Hughes should have been prepared for this as she says she's more clinical than academic, she does work in trauma, and certain early life traumas can result in a person developing a personality adaptation.
      However, if she didn't think Amber had cluster B traits, she may not have been as careful as she should have been. I've experienced an intense desire to protect friends of mine with BPD because of the way they interacted with me, and I've had to be incredibly careful that I didn't end up fighting their battles for them. It's a similar feeling you get when you see a tiny, scared kitten.
      This may sound weird, but it's basic transactional analysis - like if someone acts like child, you may start acting like a parent in response, or if somebody starts patronising you and treating you like a kid, you may respond like a child.
      This is so common a phenomenon that sometimes, when there's a person in need of therapy who has BPD, three therapists may work with the client in rotation in order to prevent this over-attachment. There's always one therapist monitoring the other two.
      As far as I can remember from what I was told, one therapist treats, one therapists rests from providing the treatment, and one therapist monitors. Then they switch places.
      This may be completely irrelevant to this situation - we don't actually know whether Amber has BPD and HPD (although we know the scores on the MMPI-2 were consistent with that, according to Dr Curry) and we don't know if over-attachment happened. I'm just saying it can happen.

    As a survivor, what Amber did by contacting her therapist after an incident, _DOESN'T_ mean she was seeking therapy as the victim. With a _VERY_ smart ABUSER (who's trying to cover their tracks), it's NOT uncommon for them to schedule appts, talk with friends/family, to try to make themselves look like the "victim," when they know damn well, that they were actually the aggressor.
    I get that most people won't understand this unless they've been through it, but in cases where somebody has a history of being the Abuser, it's _not_ uncommon for them to get smarter and smarter with trying to cover their tracks and create their own narrative for later on down the road, when the relationship ends. Manipulation is key with a lot of Abusers...

I distrust that she had no help doing it, but it's still incredibly tenacious to tackle Hollywood at 17. What I find incredulous is her account of not knowing anything about Johnny Depp. Lol.

Also, he sometimes become more slow and stumbles to chose words carefully, which ultimately puts a good question. He was polite and didn't give a bad impression to Jury, unlike Amber's lawyer. Also, I think he was trying to make Dr. Hughes comfortable and carefree. Because too attentive means better planned answers. It's amazing watching Amber's lawyers before that they didn't have a single objection(other than that compound one lol) here. That's what a brilliant cross is.

      NEVER EVER did I hear someone first stating "this is my diagnosis" & THEN tries to find the right puzzle pieces that strengthen her *guess* while at the same x "ignoring" relevant & related other statements/ additional or descriptive information [sic]!
      This is beyond malpractice even, it's insane!
      She's obviously insane! This woman needs to change jobs!

    Replay Crew 🇦🇺: Hughes is not only unprofessional as an expert witness but as a psychologist. In tests like these, questions are asked multiple times, in multiple ways to check for continuity and malingering. That she dismisses a question because "it had already been answered", or because she was just doing part of it to check changes since the previous time is, frankly, contemptible - administer the test properly or don't claim to be using it. Clearly, Hughes manipulates her "clinical notes" to say what her employers want her to say.

    Started watching this on accident popped up while I was scrolling about. My first thoughts was "oh another celebrity with $ trying to buy their way out. Went into watching this thinking JD was the one lying and he probably did hit her. But then something in his testimony and his mannerisms struck me as extremely familiar. It stood out as I seen this behavior before and his discription of his childhood and why he certain traits and habbits in which he deals with such a childhood was clear description to exactly what i witnessed in my mothers behavior . I am not a psychiatrist or a law student but i am a child of a mother whos mother acted exactly the way his mother did. My grandma would throw things at my grandpa while he sat in a wheelchaor blind with aputated legs and would shout hirtful words at him and he calmly would set me on his lap and softly say to me just ignore her and then woukd taljk to me about whats on tv or tell me jokes. My mother had that same ability to ignore the ranting behavior of her mother no matter how cruel she got. I always knew something was wrong about the situation because everyone acted like these things were normal. I knew because my mom was nothing like her raising me. She too once said she knew how to be a mother to me because all she had to do was be opposite of her mother. My mother like Johnny always looked at herself like they were nothing special and didnt need or want the center of the room attention. Very shy and much like him her children and family was everything she cherrished us. Nothing was ever about her it was all about our kids happiness. I sensed as a kid that the way she went out of her way for us was nice but a tad abnormal almost like she tried to fix her childhood through us. What truly hit home was his need to escape moments that felt like escalation of tensions. If anyone in the room even raised their voice during a conversation you could see my mother escape in what we called the ostrich mode. Which to us meant she would calmly and quietly leave the room to hers where she would lay down and watch tv and become very distant for days. Only long periods of a quiet calm atmosphere would emerge her from her ostrich behavior. She too took care of her mother till she passed even tho my grandma was very verbally cruel and hateful. When i got older i asked my mom why she was so kind to her when she was so cruel and she said to me that she always wanted her mother to treat her with love amd kindnesd and unconditional love but she never recieved it so even tho it hurt her heart just being near her it filled her heart that she was capable of giving what her mother couldnt.. it meant alot to her to do the right thing regaurdless to her mothers behavior and the only time my mother would stand up to her by raising her voice or respondong to her behavior was my grandma stepped over the line with my brother or i. My mom suddenly lost that shy girl that tolerated the abuse when us kids were in grandmas rage. What was always shocking to me is my mother would even handle that situation with decency. She wouldny loose her temper it just wasnt in her. She would would just suddenly speak up and say "thats it! Its time for you to leave!" The n she would hand my grandma her purse and open the door for her. She kept what she said limited and never ranted just a simple Leave and a look on her face that said the children are off limits. That strong protective parent behavior JD sounds known for to me also sounds like my mothers distinctive ptsd symptoms. Miss heard like my grandma was known for that hot cold behavior where anytime you encounter her theres a few moments of silence as you survey for what the mood for the day was... was it day that a simple hello triggers the ranting? Just never knew what wild accusations she would have or when and honestly my mother had that quiet way of dealing with it that I had the hardest time 7nderstanding why when she is a grown women, married with child did she take it and never display to her how hurtful it felt. My mother like JD also was perscribed opioids for her back pain and never understood how addicted she was to them.. i am actually floored by how i assumed he was guilty and lying and then was suddenly hit by the astonding familiarity of it all and my gut feeling is acts like someone like my mother who couldnt bring them to hurt someone even when they deserve it. She was incapable of raising her hand under extreme circumstances as if its almost a symptom to her abuse. When she spoke you could hear her conpassion for people as if she feels their pain... always hated to see anyone unhappy. She was a beautuful tortured soul that wxuded extreme kindness much like ppl are testifying about JD. Generous to a fault. Everything in my gut says he is telling the truth even when its an ugly truth. My mother was exactly like that. While i admired her super sweet kind heart and the way she could only lie when protecting someone else there was always a sense of everthing she did wad pushed by soul that was suffering the torture in every decisio of life. Again im not a psychiatrist but never before have i seen these unique traits i grew up watching in anyone else till now. Makes me wanna just reach out to him and say "i get it!" I understand the pain it takes to fight back right now and what this means to your healing"

    According to Dr. Hughes, she has an “excellent memory” when it comes to her testing and notes, yet not even a few minutes later is snidely saying to the lawyer that she “wishes she had a cheat sheet to look off of too when referring to the testing”. The lawyer needs it because he doesn’t know what the testing says, what’s your excuse Dawn? Why would you need the cheat sheet if you had such an excellent memory to the point where you weren’t even fully filling out your own testing documents because you are smarter than everyone and they should just know that when you don’t fill out a section that asks for details, it doesn’t mean there are no comments, it means there are so many details to list that you leave it blank and that the person evaluating those forms should know to go back through the other sections to piece together what you already said somewhere else.

    I think what makes this witness look so incredibly unprofessional and biased next to Dr Curry is that when she is speaking she uses gendered pronouns, speaks as if she was there, answers questions about the relationship in a way that indicates she was present when she wasn't and in no way attempts to see Johnny Depp's side.
    Whereas Dr Curry used neutral terminology, several times indicated as to why Amber would act the way she would and while she wasn't using it to excuse Amber's behavior did indicate that it was a very sad situation. She was very clear when a question was out of her scope and several times went into explanation that the question being asked of her would be inappropriate for her to answer or for any forensic psychologist to answer. She was very clear about the limitations of her expertise.
    Even though you can clearly see Dr Curry was hired by Johnny Depp's team she did a fair job at trying to remain neutral.

She was more professional and detached from emotions to some degree whereas the other expert was too involved emotionally as a family member or friend would be. Of course psychologist care about the welfare of their patients but not to the degree of this nurse. When Amber started crying, the word that popped in to my mind was the word "feign". I'm an empathetic woman but something just doesn't sit right with me.

"We gave her drugs" Why would someone who reportedly is anti drug claim that? I've also noticed that she's always the savior in her stories. At the Caravan campfire, SHE saved this random girl from the clutches of Johnny. It wasn't his bodyguard, who testified that he stepped in to move them to their caravan away from people.
