Very weird. I knew her (not very well) when I was a member of the WTC Survivor’s Network and always thought very highly of her.

She was always very quiet, spoke softly and never seemed to want to draw attention to herself. In fact, “quiet dignity” is the phrase that was often used to describe her.

(I left the WTCSN because it had turned into a left-wing circle jerk and was becoming a group of apologists for radical Islamists.)

It’s very sad that she apparently has some serious personal issues.

I don’t know your story but you have my sympathy and admiration.

The problem with “support groups” like this is they seem to encourage members to wallow in the past rather than moving on. They then must find reasons to continue to exist beyond what is healthy for the normal human beings. After I was involved in a mini-trauma, compared to yours, a support group was set up and I was encouraged to attend but all it seemed to do was rehash over and over the trauma and encourage people to attribute every negative emotion to that trauma. I lasted two meetings. The group lasted at least a year and a half and perhaps still exists. We moved out of state so I don’t know. It must be even worse to see your friends and fellow victims become shills for killers.
