I am a DV survivor. I left him 6 years ago but I was in the relationship for 4 years. When I first left him I still thought I loved him. After a few years, I found my self worth again and realized I couldn’t truly love someone that could hurt me so viciously. So her saying she still “loves” him doesn’t make sense after all these years. My ex had just broke me. He gaslighted me into believing many things. I had no interest in watching the trial, but what caught my attention was seeing a clip on TikTok and AHs behavior didn’t make any sense. I knew almost immediately that her behavior was not conducive to someone that had been horribly abused for years. When she couldn’t figure out a timeline of events, I knew something was off. And I do realize that some people forget moments during a traumatic event, however, if you remember some you most likely remember all. I can tell you every thought, smell, and noise during the abusive outbursts. During those moments, you are in fight or flight mode. When you are trying to survive everything is heightened. Your survival instincts seem to take over. So when she couldn’t tell the jury this happened, then this happened, I knew something was off. Also, if she still loves him and wishing no will ill on him, then why did she “act” so frightened to walk past him when she was walking off the stand? Her behavior and words are all over the place and nothing is consistent.

I appreciate that you're going off your personal experience but you can't extrapolate that to be the same for everyone.

It is also quite common to continue loving people who abused you and many abuse survivors struggle with the push and pull of loving someone they have to stay away from for their own safety.

If she feels constantly judged, she feels like she cant convince people she is a victim based on whether people like her or her own actions that make her unlikeable or harder to believe. I think she is acknowledging she is not a completely innocent victim, she did provocative and irresponsible things. I AM a victin of DV but if I ever had to go to court, I would also acknowledge that I was not completely innocent. Secondly, I am SURE that her lawyers and PR people made it clear that she was not the "perfect" victim and they would have a harder time defending her based on some of her poor choices.

When my parents asked her why she did this, she cried, explaining that she had just defended herself and that she was being treated poorly by her husband.

There was something about Amber’s face in court that instantly told me she was lying. I don’t know what it was, but I was sort of able to pin it down to this look of widened eyes and upturned eyebrows that she has a lot, especially when sat listening to others. It’s an expression that I recognise from my own abusers, almost like a way of saying “look how innocent I am, sitting here listening politely”, head tilted to show she’s listening and all of that stuff. I know nothing about body language but as a DV survivor I could instantly tell from that look that she was lying. She wanted to look innocent and respectful, but for me it was a massive tell that I picked up on immediately.

Everything AH has said from trial to interviews has offended me. My perception is that she tried to envision what a suspenseful movie about an abuse survivor would look like… then she built a character for court that suffered some of the worst pains imaginable. And finally at the end of the movie the survivor forgives & loves the abuser in the most dramatic format. I would never express love for the person who abused me… he robbed me of so much in my youth & enjoyed every moment. AH has created a character in which the most traumatic experiences were endured & now she intends to perpetuate her role as “the wronged victim”… it hearts my heart & turns my stomach!

If they are proven wrong they will keep poking the bear no matter what. It's hard to get them to stop. Johnny shouldn't take the bate though. This is very triggering and I wonder if for him as well -- Cptsd can come from narcissistic abuse which is something I went through. The majority of the public already believes him.

I'm an abuse survivor, not in relation with DV, but during my childhood. I'm studying psychology right now, and that also sheds some light on everything for myself. There's a clear timeline in events or non-events for me. Sounds weird at first, but let me explain: as I was younger, around 4 to 8 maybe even 9 years old, there was stuff happening to me, I can't clearly remember, just parts of it, and even those are really blurry. It's often hard enough to believe myself that it happened, I would never paint an overly dramatic picture of it. The other thing is, at one point I started to consciously recollect abusive events in my life, which has two causes. The first one, I grew older, my brain started handling things differently, I developed more of a self-sense. The second thing was, it wasn't sexual abuse. Now, I know myself better than anyone else ever could, and I'm pretty sure, would it have been another act of sexual abuse, I would've gone back into the state that I was in as younger child; I'm sure I would struggle with my recollection just as much as I do for the few years earlier. That's something common, something that protects our brains from such horrible moments, and even though I hate the fact that everything is so blurry in my mind, I'm glad that I can't recall every single moment of it. What I effectively wanted to say is; You don't just forget some parts of the abuse and remember others randomly. It's just not how it works. I don't know. It was just something that came up out of a rarely visited place in myself, and maybe being heard is just something I always wanted. Oh well, that got emotional pretty fast. Still, thanks to everyone who took their time to read this, whether there is a response to it or not. And my final conclusion: Amber Heard's disgusting behavior triggered me. I'm sure that tells something, at least it does to me. (Sorry if my phrasing or word choice seems weird at some point, English isn't my native language.)

When she says "it was the most humiliating and horrible experience of my life," she's describing the Trial not the Abuse. You can see the real emotion in her eyes. She is tearing up and her chin trembles. She was never Abused but this trial did Humiliate her, and she brought this on herself.

Her getting caught in her BS is what’s humiliating and then having to defend her lies is double humiliating and really stressful as it’s hard to keep track of all those lies.. I can’t with this chick! And the most horrible thing she’s ever gone through SHOULD be those excruciatingly detailed episodes of abuse, from 6 to 10+ years ago! And she calls herself a ‘victim’ now? WTF?? Johnny didn’t actually text that to her, right wasn’t it to his sister? And he said “she is BEGGING for global humiliation”. I don’t think Amber even knew about that until he submitted his phone records, ironically she didn’t submit hers. Yes, Amber is just digging herself in deeper and deeper and that must be because of her delusional high opinion of herself.. notice how she is educating us “average people”. She will never learn and never give up… something legal and very serious needs to be done because it’s obvious that even a trial and this verdict has not even slowed her down.. maybe worse now… she is her worst enemy…

It's basic emotional manipulation and I've seen it way too much back when my mother emotionally and verbally abused me. It pisses me off knowing some people don't know better and actually mistake it for some sort of remorse. To clarify I'm pissed at Amber for continuing to abuse, not those who don't know better.

Your point about her being genuinely affected by the term "global humiliation" makes a lot of sense to me. If you pay attention, the times during her testimony where she felt the most sincere, were the times when she was talking about how this whole thing has bruised her ego - not when she was describing how she was abused.

They jumped on Dr Spiegel saying "we don't expect our victims to be perfect" (one of the very little I agreed with him on), and ever since then she & Elaine etc have talked about her as "an imperfect victim" because they think it makes a great soundbite/sub-header etc. The trouble is, that AH has trouble switching the perspectives and so the opposite of her being an imperfect victim is her being _not a perfect victim_, which to her means that she blieves a perfect victim exists (and we know from her court reaction what she thinks of victims). However, the wording doesn't translate like that for the reason Spidey highlights....there is "no perfect victim" because the connotations of thinking someone is a "perfect" for being a victim is abhorent to most of us - in fact, I'd go so far as to say, that her attitude is the way an abuser would think "this person will make the perfect target because they're a man & use drugs, so no on will believe him, i might even get him believing it himself if I convince him he did stuff when he passed out." = perfect victim to get their hooks in. Sickening. However, she seems to have already forgotten her aggressive rebuttal of Camille calling her out on wanting to be seen as a victim, when she showed us what she actually thinks about victims (on top of the way she's talked the rest of the time about JD on the tapes when she hit him or he tried to remove himself from her physical fight etc), she thinks victims are weak, and even if it would have bolstered her story in the heat of that moment in court she showed us that _she's_ not weak & so not a victim. If at the time she'd said "I'm not a victim, I'm a survivor," then the conversation would have been different. She's all about her soundbites though, that's why we have this "I'm not a good victim, I'm not a perfect victim" response, it's like she thinks she's in an episode of Law & Order SVU. You can almost hear their dramatic transition noise they make on the show whenever she pauses.

Thank you for this video. I never thought that I could receive so much purging and closure and strength from this trial. Dr. Curry's testimony, other therapists' analysis, body language videos, behaviorists, and particularly this very video led me to realize what happened to me was not my fault. I can stop feeling as though I failed and can stop wondering how I could have persuaded them to not do what they did to me. I now know that was never going to happen. I was in the presence of a very deceptive malignant narcissist in two of my former supervisors, a pity seeking vulnerable/malignant narcissist in my sister, and a grandiose narcissist in my ex friend. I'm still not able to talk about other experiences. It was all right in front of me. I just didn't know what to look for while reflecting on everything that has happened. I feel soooo much relief and extra power. Words can't come close to describing how freeing and empowering this video was.

I’m also a survivor who had to hide from my abuser. This was over 11 years ago and I’m still afraid, my heart raise to the roof every time I see someone who looks just like him. It didn’t take long to feel the hatred after I successfully freed myself. I can’t believe that ANYONE feels any kind of love for someone who has hurt them that much so that she tried to get a restraining order against her abuser?! That for me is a big lie, even if it’s an attempt to gain sympathy from others by showing that she’s the bigger person… I don’t know?

So I'm a survivor of rape and sexual assault by over 5 different men. I've never told my story anywhere, and only a few people in my life know about it. I can't connect with Amber on her allegations of physical abuse, but when she accused Johnny of sexual abuse, it became personal for me. One of the people that raped me was an ex-boyfriend who I thought I had loved. The day he did that to me, I lost every romantic feeling I'd ever felt with him. Sure, the memories of feeling in love were still there, and I could even recall them today, but never in a million years would I ever say "Yes, I still love him" if someone asked me that question. Also, I just wanted to say from the bottom of my heart, thank you for the genuine empathy and anger you expressed in this video for every victim of abuse out there. It wasn't hearing Amber say horrible things like "I'm not a perfect victim" that made me cry, it was seeing that there are people like you who care so deeply that it brings them to deep emotion.

As an abuse survivor, this whole circus of a trial was enraging, as I’m sure it was for most survivors and those close to them (and pretty much most other people who watched it as well!). Watching her try to cry on the stand made me so angry I didn’t even know what to do with myself. Seeing her smirks so inconsistent with the weight of any given situation and hearing not only her constant lies but the way her voice sounds when she thinks she convinced us she’s telling the truth; or the way she looks so pompous in her attempts to look like she’s putting on a brave face…sure, she’s had to put on a brave face, a brave face in the wake of the “global humiliation” and intense public scrutiny that she’s created for herself…but she’s never, ever had to live with somebody who was both the person she thought she loved and her abuser, never had to look somebody in the eyes and feel the intense anxiety of not know whether she’ll make it through the day without being hurt physically or mentally by the person she thought she trusted, never had to go day after day with less and less hope that things will ever change or get better and wondering when the day might be that it’s too much to handle anymore, never been truly, purely afraid of the person she called her partner…(and of course everybody’s personal situation and journey is different, not exclusive to what I just wrote out which is just a very basic portrayal of my own experience and understanding…though apparently Ms. Heard thinks there’s a cookie-cutter shape of an abuse victim…when really there’s such a wide scope of what people have to live with in an abusive situation)… she’s never had to stand up and tell others (truthfully) about the terrible things she had to live through for the sake of possibly helping others, because, and this just makes me sick, not even angry, just sick, she’s not helping people living with or who have lived with abuse in heir lives, we all know that, but the fact that she genuinely thought she would be our voice…not because she’d lived through it and felt some sort of continuity with us, but because she thought it looked good on her…that’s literally the reason…she loved the attention, the idea of this “victimhood” I like to call it…it’s so obvious and the one thing that makes the rage I feel toward her manageable is the fact that people were able to see through her lies, thankfully. That, and the fact that this case has shone light on what a survivor of abuse actually is, not this character she played, but what it all actually means, and has extended that consideration to men who are survivors of abuse, which is so very important. Anyway, I don’t know if any of that made a whole lot of sense…I just feel so strongly about this in particular. And I do try to remain open minded and remind myself that she’s a person, nobody is perfect, surely she’s had her own personal struggles and this all must be very stressful for her…but none of that excuses the disgusting disservice she’s done for those she claimed to stand up for-in solidarity with-it’s almost unforgivable… On a lighter note 😮‍💨🙂I’ve been watching your videos since the start of this whole debacle and I genuinely appreciate your analysis of behavior and body language. You’re so entertaining to watch and you’ve also helped shed a light on how it is we know somebody is lying, when so often all we know is that the lies are being told! That context and background knowledge is so beneficial. Thank you for sharing it with us. And thank you for being considerate with the time stamp in this video. Your ability to empathize while remaining professionally objective is one of the several reasons I very much enjoy your videos :)

@@TEEEEEEPEEEEEE101 you’re absolutely right. I think especially for people with lots of insecurities and low self-esteem (which people living with an abusive partner often relate to), this would absolutely be devastating. I personally hate it when I’m falsely accused of something (doesn’t happen often) or even when somebody misunderstands me or some aspect of myself (happens quite often) and I know how deep the urge runs to clear my name or correct somebody who might be mistaken about me. Then, imagine being uber-famous and having virtually the entire world think something awful about you, that you committed heinous crimes against not only another human being, but a domestic partner…I don’t know how he stayed sane, to be honest. And to have literally his entire life put on blast in order to clear his name…he did so with poise and grace and I, along with many, many others I’m sure, commend him. From another perspective though, being a famous actor may have had its benefits in this situation, which your normal, everyday person may not have had. As simplistic and shallow as this may sound, money does make things easier (of course it doesn’t buy happiness, but if we’re being totally honest, having complete financial security eases people of the stresses that money can bring, therefore making it just a bit easier to potentially enjoy life…). Plus, I’m sure he’s used to people thinking all kinds of things about him which aren’t true, good or bad. He’s been in his field of career for quite some time now, and to be able to stick it out like he has, I’m sure he’s had to grow some thick skin when it comes to the comments and beliefs and judgments of others. Although, this is on a scale which I’m not sure has really been seen in some time, and no similar examples come to mind (though I’m not all too knowledgeable about the goings-on of celebrities, to be honest). When it comes down to it, I obviously can’t comment accurately as I’m not in his shoes. It would be very interesting to pick his brain on what his experience was like…he’s already given extensive details of his time with Amber Heard, but I’d like to know how he felt facing public scrutiny that was all based on lies and how he felt during the process of clearing his name.

As a survivor of emotional and psychological abuse, I have never once said I loved my ex or missed him. It’s soo extremely weird and uncomfortable that she says that. Usually abusers will say that about the person they abused while also trying to save face and say how much better they are without them.

No, you're right. She is infuriating and does nothing but hurt people who have actually been abused and not believed.

I am a survivor of verbal and physical abuse from my ex husband, and have C-PTSD from it. A lot of things AH has said trigger me in the wrong way. I think, most of all, her statement of "Why would I?" on the stand, so nonchalantly, about whether she'd be afraid of the repercussions of sharing a disrespectful photo of "her abuser". I would NEVER. EVER. Because my very first thought would be how severely I would be beaten after doing something like that. You can't do that to a real abuser without knowing you'd be violently attacked. That was the defining moment for me. Her stating she still loves him and smiling when discussing their relationship proves he was a good man to her and never an abuser. I always think, was I even in love? Or was it simply trauma bonding? For me, I have zero positive feelings for him. My stomach churns at the very thought of being with him and I feel physically sick. She's only proving he's never touched her, she was the abuser, and she longs for the times when someone was good to her. You never long for times when you were abused. And when you're out of a relationship like that, no amount of good times will overshadow the reality of the bad. Every time I watch her, I feel sick. Because she is the one who reminds me of my abuser, not JD. The abuser is the one who wants back in, not the victim.

Exactly. She's hoovering and love bombing even now. She's so toxic, I'm starting to wonder how Johnny got away from her alive.

My abuse happened over 15 years ago and it still sticks with me to this day. In the way I still flinch when my husband (who has never laid a finger on me) reaches over my head to grab something from a shelf, to when I can become inconsolably upset just hearing or seeing abusive treatment on movies and tv. My abuser even passed away almost 3 years ago in a motorcycle accident and I still feel fear when I think about my past. Idc how much time will pass, I know I will never be the same because of it and that is something I will never be able to forgive him for. For the longest time I blamed myself for “allowing” myself to be in that position and most of my anger was toward myself and I put a lot of the blame on me, sometimes I still do. It has taken me many many years to understand that it wasn’t my fault and I didn’t deserve it. No one does. There is no doubt in my mind that AH does not truly believe she is a victim.

She said on the stand that she never called herself a victim. Now she’s calling herself a victim.

As a domestic violence survivor of over 50 years, and as an older woman (67), I can say this. Whenever asked by my therapist to speak about how I feel about my abuser, she knows to prepare for PTSD flashbacks, tears, flushing of my face, profuse sweating and EXTREME nausea...some of the many TRUE symptoms of recalling the person who abused you. I would NEVER say I still loved him. She showed no signs of a true DV survivor and has made a mockery of all the women and men who are.

Her to say " I understand that the average person.." vs "I understand how people would.." just indicates that she's in a class of her own in her own mind. People , of all walks of life (Hollywood stars included) looked at her and thought the same , not just "the average person".

At least most of us "Average people" know about "Parakeet" and "Parquet" flooring...that still makes me laugh so hard.

I am an abuse survivor. Everything she said made me angry and upset. I truly feel in my heart that she is the biggest and worst liar. She wanted to join the conversation of the me too movement, not "lend her voice"... but to be included for notoriety. Perhaps, moreover, to be close to that side instead of the opposite one that she should have been on, like a murderer trying to help find the missing person he or she kidnapped and killed. I guess it's possible to have loved the abuser, but to love him or her in present day and not wish any "ill will" towards them is a bit extreme- I feel it's another moment where she tried to paint herself in a positive light, as this all forgiving soul. That's just not real. Again, she's trying to take advantage of her viewers. I appreciated the warning before her perfect victim comment. I wonder what a perfect victim looks like. What an awful thing to say. As a survivor, she is insinuating that I should look and act a certain way. Why? Very weird thing to say. The only thing that does make sense about that, is what you said in your video. Because she has an idea in her head of what a victim is "supposed to be" and she is trying to exemplify that. Shame on her. Also, I know it's not discussed in this interview, but the recording where she said over and over "go ahead, tell the world you're an abused man", insinuating that no one would ever believe him, is so telling. Something similar was said to me as a child throughout years of abuse, by my abuser. She is the abuser and I'm glad she has been exposed as such. Johnny is the survivor and I'm so happy he prevailed.

The Amber Heard magic trick was freaking hilarious! “That’s right, synonymously” 🤣

As a survivor, her entire testimony upset me. I've never seen a true survivor look in the eyes of someone questioning them. It took me years to do that after years of intense therapy. She makes my blood boil with her statements.

As someone who has personal experience with survivors of DV and SA, her statement that she has no hard feelings or ill will feels off, especially after 6 years and a lawsuit. I can see feeling conflicted, especially right after the end of the relationship, feeling some attachment along with anger and hurt and fear and disgust. But nothing but love 6 years later? Absolutely not. Also, the fact that she never once expressed concern that he may hurt someone else was a red flag for me. Speaking out is hard, and from what I've seen, a big motivating factor for survivors to speak out is preventing harm to others in the future. The idea that JD is as violent as she has described, but yet she's not worried about him hurting others seems more than a little off to me. Just my two cents.

I have often contemplated the idea that Amber is emotionally abusing every DV survivor out there with her lies and trying to become part of the conversation/community. I feel for you.

As someone who has been in an abusive relationship, I don’t believe a single word that comes out of her mouth. And so many moments in this interview just made me so angry. Even before I watched the behavioural analysis of her, I always felt like her body language and choice of words wasn’t just off… but even cringeworthy. And as for her words, I feel a lot of things toward my ex boyfriend but love is definitely not a word I would use after so many years free of that relationship. It still keeps my up at night wondering if my ex is out there abusing another young girl because I was too weak and naive to know that I should have pressed some kind of charges against him (I was 17-18).

I'm a survivor and Amber has triggered my PTSD since I started observing some of the trial. This interview had me yelling at the screen too. The way she talks about how she loves Johnny and wishes him no ill will - I can't even think back to when my relationship with a psychopath started and seemed wonderful without feeling sick to my stomach! When I discovered the patterns of his behavior, learned what exactly gaslighting was and how it was happening to me, discovered ALL the lies, etc...I have never fallen out of love with someone so quickly. When I realized that I was in very dangerous territory because he was talking about me "disappearing", I couldn't cut ties with him quickly enough.

I am sorry you went thru this. I agree. I once loved my abuser, before he began to beat me. The first time he hit me I "forgave" him. We had been living together a year no abuse at all, we got married and he hit me for the first time on our wedding night. I had hoped it was some isolated freak incident..i justified it as stress, thought it *was just* a one time thing, after all he never did that before, never put me down etc, I couldnt see how he was an abuser yet held it in over a year. I also believed his "I'm sorry" and all that stuff... I honestly didnt want to believe that was the type of man he was. however about a month later he literally kick the shyt out of me.. I knew then he *was* an abusive a$$hole.. I stopped loving him right then and there and now when I look back at the time before the abuse began, I don't see the love I thought was there, I don't feel he "was a great guy", I never look at that first year and a half we were together (before the abuse began) as a magical time... I look back at it as all BS, it wasn't real. I don't know one DV survivor that looks at the time before the abuse as anything positive at all. I have never heard a DV survivor speak of how they loved their abuser (past or currently loving them) I speak at battered women shelter, fundraisers, high schools etc telling my story (I've even spoken before congress) and many many people come up to me afterwards and tell them their stories .. either past or what they are currently going thru... not one has ever spoke of love for their abuser.

I was in a very toxic and mentally abusive “relationship” (I say relationship in quotes bc we were never official) so her saying “I loved him” and changing it to “I love him” was not only inconsistent, it made no sense! When I ended the situation I had a long road of healing and I still am! The fact that she thinks it’s ok to say things like “I’m not the perfect victim” is not only insulting it’s ridiculous! When I ended the situation, I was angry and felt humiliated that I could fall for some trap!

Thank you!!!! I've literally been screaming at the television regarding AH "I love him". I am a survive abuse victim, both DV & SV, & still to this day, over 25 years later, wish nothing on him except for him to rot - I loathe him in every possible way.

What always surprises me is people thinking at some point Amber will admit what she did and admit to her lies, but that's normal people using normal logic on a very troubled person. What someone like Amber will do is double down, which she did with this interview and continue to paint herself in a certain light, which she did. People forget that for a very long time, Amber's behaviour worked for her. She could convince people she's a good person, a victim or however she likes, but at some point the very behaviour that kept her afloat is her downfall. Problem is, Amber and people like her cannot admit defeat or change. Quite often people suffering from narcissism and borderline personality disorder will commit suicide when they feel the jig is up or continue believing they will eventually win.

I was with someone for over four years and in that time, he went from being so charming and lovable to a mr. Hyde monster. Now a monster is not someone who falls asleep with icecream dribbling over them, or someone who curls up in a ball on the floor, or walks away from a fight if it gets physical. A monster is someone who will hurl your things against a wall, come after you with a fury, constantly belittle you in an argument with the most obscene language, debase your looks, your family, threaten your safety both physically and emotionally, throw you out then ask you what's the problem. That's a monster.. a Jekyll to Hyde character. The only monster I saw in the AH/JD relationship was AH. She has the cackle to go with it and her twisted face as she tries to imagine emotions felt by someone who was actually abused is very ugly to watch. And the arrogance of her, still trying to make people believe her lies, is beyond belief. A horrible person, as I said to the monster I left. Luckily I got away. Thing is, he's also completely unaware of his monstrosity. They have personality disorders - in effect she possibly can't help it but that is no excuse to continue the facade. Get help. Stop playing the victim when you're the monster.

Ironically Amber did pretty much every single thing you listed as what a monster actually does lmao. She even summited " evidence" that literally proved she was abusing him. She's honestly beyond dumb

a few months ago (at 34 years old) I was able to acknowledge (for the first time) that I grew up with an abusive parent. I've always said to myself: You have no time no time to deal with it now. No one will listen to you anyway... Put it aside and move on. And by putting it aside, it didn't happen at all. Even though my friends told me my experiences weren't normal, to me it was perfectly normal...until it became too much. You were right in saying the 'perfect victim' comment would piss me off. it reminded me of something my parent said "I'm sorry I'm not perfect, and that what I say and do is hurting you". So once again, the survivor is being blamed for surviving, and the abuser is playing the victim because they weren't perfect enough. it seriously pisses me off

I am very empathetic. I am a sympathy crier, big time! Every time AH shows “sadness” I only feel embarrassment. I cringe. It’s not real. I’ve felt nothing but embarrassment and anger when watching her. The “perfect victim” comment had me hot! Didn’t she say she never saw herself as a victim? And now she is saying she wasn’t the “perfect victim” and that’s why she wasn’t believed?! Ugh this woman makes me angry. She is her own worst enemy. The more she talks, the deeper the hole she digs.

I am a survivor of abuse from 2 relationships. The first I was with for 10 years of hell. The way she blamed and lied reminding me of exactly the way my ex was like. The second abuser used to make up rubbish about me to my family and friends and acted like everything was my fault. The moment I saw her testimony I knew straight away what a huge liar and how abusive she was and how much she reminded me of those two abusers. She is a clear narcissist!, and I can truly show her what an abuse victim is like!. It has taken me 15-20 years to not panic so much as a passenger in a car. I will never forget what I was constantly called, told and made out to be by them. I truly feel sorry for her daughter I really do!!

I am an overcomer/survivor with complex PTSD. Being abused by an extreme grandiose narcissist, I see so many similarities in Amber. Those of us who have learned to be hyper intuned to every person in the room in order to dissolve potential conflict or further abuse can clearly see right through Amber's lies and narcissism. She's no victim, but tries to portray one to manipulate others. She's scary to me. I'm so thankful Johnny is finally free of her. 🙌

Hi all, I was abused physically as a child, and watched my mother get abused by an alcoholic father. At no point did either of us ever talk to him the way AH talked to JD. We were walking on egg shells at all times, and would do anything to not set him off. We would apologies for things we didn't even do so as to not contradict him. When I heard the tapes of AH interacting with JD, it was obvious she was not being abused by him at all or ever. She makes me so angry for faking being a victim of abuse.

Agreed. I think that phrase is so infuriating & hurtful to survivors, is it shows contempt & disdain for survivors. “I know I’m not the perfect victim” to a talking down to victims it is setting herself above others, of I’m not like them, but with disdain like I’m not the perfect little girl there is an air of disgust & judgement in a negative way. She said something on the stand as well as her deposition that had a similar air about Im not one of those weak women- disgust, disdain, contempt for survivors of domestic violence & rape. I think that might be why we are all reacting is while she has tried to dress herself in the costume of abuse survivor it is a costume only, her truth is she has contempt for women she judges as weak & was only using it to fight his team’s insistence on a post nup during their divorce which in the most telling of all on her cross when Camille brilliantly executed the “…Lt Kendrick gave the order because that’s what you told him to do, & when it went bad you cut these guys loose, you doctored the logbooks… Colonel Jessup did you order the Code Red!!??” And Amber replied THAT’S why I wrote the Op Ed! (Because Johnny is a powerful man, everyone loves him & seek to curry favor, come out of the woodwork…) She never thought it would get this far. Remember her crying on the call this is going to hurt my credibility- he said we will go to the papers, we will tell them we love each other this has gotten out of hand we will remove this from the media…she interrupted with a comment what will people think of her & he said why did you write the article? I didn’t put this out there, you did. And she said you made me. I didn’t make you. “Your team.” Ok so I’ll talk to the team. For me that recording was the most damning. So what is she doing now? Same thing she did during their relationship according to their therapist- control the narrative. Now she is wrapping herself in the flag, in America, free speech & speaking to Power. Oh so what, trying to position yourself as the voice for domestic violence & Me Too backfired now you’re going to try to play to the America First Crowd?! I have had it with this C U next Tuesday. I am enraged because I actually was raped with a foreign object! (Cordless phone) I was actually grabbed by my hair and dragged through the living room thrown into walls. Thrown into a glass frame, dented my nose, chipped front tooth. I was grabbed by my throat & lifted off the ground. Kicked in the middle of my back knocked to the ground. I was raped while he put a pillow case over my face & I made myself small inside my head slowed my breathing afraid he would accidentally smother me if he came too hard so I stopped screaming stopped fighting just focused on my breathing & went somewhere else deep inside to a field yellow wheat down the path into the woods to the crystal pond so that whatever happened to my body wasn’t happening to me because I wasn’t there it was just my body it wasn’t me. So yeah. I wish we still had a town square & were allowed to throw rotten apples at people who were as villainous as she. It is not ok for her to use trauma like it is a game. I have not been able to be in a full relationship since 1999 as a result of my trauma & PTSD. I can have close friendship intimacy or just sex. I cannot have sex with someone I have feelings for. It is too much. And I am & was a strong & intelligent woman. Her stereotype of the perfect victim of some weak woman who is frail & vulnerable is as insulting as the old lies SHE WAS ASKING FOR IT, WHAT WAS SHE WEARING, BOYS WILL BE BOYS. Again, now that the tide has turned & it backfired on her & the Me Too Movement is out of fashion, she’s trying to make it about free speech. Well accusing someone of a crime isn’t what anyone is talking about when they speak of free speech honey! That’s called slander, defamation & good old fashioned LIES.

I was gas lit and quite literally made to believe I was crazy-a lot of what she said on the stand was similar to my experiences with my ex. I was across country away from my whole family-and was left hiding in a garbage container until the cops came. This changed who I am. This broke me and no one else was able to put me back together other than myself (thru years of therapy). I would never ever say I love him. I don’t love him. I quite literally hate him. There’s a difference between coming to peace with your past and holding hate towards the person who abused you. I am at peace with that part of my life, I have a wonderful support system and I’m secure and safe with myself. But I still hate him with every fiber of my being. I try to not let my past consume my present but there are triggers. There are moments where I am lost in a flashback. It’s unfair that she’s portraying herself as a victim and to further it saying she’s not a “likable” one. I don’t give a rats ass if as a victim I am liked. When she said that this trial was a step back for victims of DV/SA she wasn’t wrong. But it’s not because of Johnny we have this set back. It’s because of HER. She took advantage of every single victim out there by claiming to be one herself. I remember seeing her depo in 2016 and knowing she was lying when talking about her sister. I had just gotten on a plane in the middle of the night to leave my abuser and remember seeing her depo and actively saying-is this who I am now? A victim. And I am. But through the years I’ve found strength in my healing-not my abuse-but my healing. She set the clocks back for DV/SA victims. And quite honestly I hope she rots the same way I hope my abuser rots. Sorry I got very heated and am floored that she would have the nerve to do an interview and claim she is still a victim and is telling the truth. There is a difference between reality and someone’s perception of reality. Her perspective is she is a victim but the reality is-she’s a liar and a shitty one at that.

Not unlike the people that say they have cancer when they don't.

I am a DV survivor. Having been a huge Johnny Depp fan for many years, I was shocked by Amber’s allegations as I didn’t want to believe that Johnny could have abused her the way I had been abused. I watched a lot of the trial and it struck me very early on in Amber’s testimony that whatever she considered to be abuse, was nothing like the abuse that I endured for many years. You can’t fake true fear unless you’ve experienced it, and you never forget that fear even years later. For example, my husband suffocated me with a pillow until I passed out. That was 24 years ago and to this day, I’ve never been able to cope with my face being covered up. That includes not being able to wear a face covering during Covid lockdown or even to have an oxygen mask put on in hospital when I required it. Another time he strangled me and I’ve never been able to wear a scarf or any clothing that touches even the bottom of my throat. The police attended my home way too many times to count but I never testified in court because I was too afraid to even be in the same room as him. I would never wish for anyone to endure what I and many others have survived, but to falsely accuse someone, (and someone she claims to love) and declare yourself a victim…wow, that’s low.

Oh wow, now you've mentioned about that weird smirky Elvis Lip thing I am spotting it constantly!!!! 😤😠😡🤬😡😠😤😂😂

When I told my Psychologist that I was watching this trial she asked 'why', and I said "I know I shouldn't be watching it, as it is triggering for me", I added "But I think she is lying" she said "oh really what makes you say that?" I won't go into word for word after that, but basically said that she is telling it like a story out of a novel or a movie script, way to much detail. As an abuse survivor, you remember the abuse and the feeling (fear), when you are asked to tell the traumatic experience, I still years later, I breakdown crying, tears rolling down my face, snot flowing out my nose, unable to retell the horror. It's something that never leaves you. It's even harder to say it out loud. I think you don't even have to be a victim to see she was not telling it from a victims perspective. Not even close. She acted like the abuser. It's terrible what that woman has done to true survivors of DV and SV. She has to stop.

You are correct ... she tells it like a movie script and you can tell, because there a KEY DETAILS MISSING ... like talking WITH INTENSITY about HER OWN BLOOD, which must have flown plenty during the "Australia incident", because she mentions cuts from glass in her earlier (UK) testimony ... but never talks about the blood ... and if you bleed and have glass stuck inside you (shards can be rather small!), you need to ease the pain with running water and also clean the wounds with it ... AND YOU NEED SOMEONE ELSE LOOKING AT THE WOUNDS CLOSELY to get rid of the glass. She did NEITHER of these things, which makes it absolutely clear that it is A STORY and NOT REAL! The same is true for the "broken nose", because a nose bleeds quite a bit when it gets hit (just watch a particularly tough boxing match). That STORY was taken from "21 Jump Street - pilot/episode 1&2", where Johnny's character starts as a street cop but breaks the noses of several of his partners; they dont show the blood in that TV series and Amber probably copied/adjusted her story from there. [It's up on YT, so you can check yourself.]

I am a survivor of DV and SV, and a psychologist, and I will say this in reference to her saying she still loves him: In her case, for starters, I think the narcissism is so great, that she doesn't necessarily understand love in the same way we do. Its likely that to her, being "in love" is akin to what someone w/o her issues would experience as "enjoying having possession of". She probably loves Johnny the same way I love my Benz; in that I enjoy a number of things about it, but as vapid as it sounds, you enjoy the status of it etc. (Everyone w/ any manner of nice vehicle feels that way at least once or twice, I'm not a monster, its normal.) He is a big celebrity, wanted by many as evidenced by the herd of women outside the courthouse, etc etc. She probably would still "enjoy possessing" him in that way, and to her, thats love, bc she is likely unable to truly comprehend empathy, vulnerability, and other emotions necessary to love someone. That said, from the survivor aspect, it would not be too terribly strange for someone to still love someone who perpetuated DV against them, for some of the same reasons they were still able to love them and desire being w/ them during the DV. There are entire books on the multitude of ways they manipulate your feelings and get in your head, and its not uncommon for those to linger. Its even *possible* when there is SV... That said, in the case of SV, to feel that way would typically require there to have been serious, SERIOUS emotional/personality issues in the victim prior to the SV occurring, causing that person to deal w/ the trauma by maintaining affection for the perpetrator. It is infinitely less likely that someone would claim to still love someone after instances of SV, and it goes to show just how image focused and truly shallow she is, as she clearly can't empathize w/ real victims enough to understand the flaw in her words; in my humble opinion she can't seem to empathize beyond how she might be coming off in any given moment. Her ability to view situations as a whole or to act on much more than impulse is severely debilitated, from her childhood abuse most likely. Her father ran dog fighting rings -- thats sociopath behavior. She likely truly did have a very tough childhood, which is almost always the cause of this type of abhorrent behavior in adulthood. (I'm sure you're aware of this lol, I'm saying it to everyone else!)

I didn't find her comment that she still loves his that terribly far fetched either. I used to work in DV and Rape Crisis Advocacy and while it's been number of years, I do recall a statistic a long the lines of victims will leave and return to their abuser up to EIGHT times before the leave for good. There are a multitude of factors that play into that, including the manipulation of feelings to which you refer, economics, children, pets, but also love. Those looking from the outside might not be able to understand how it can be love, but that's part the manipulation and isolation victims experience. So for a victim to say they still love their abuser for a while is not uncommon. Now, do I believe Amber is one of these such victims... nope. Victims' abuse is their most humiliating experience ever. Nothing will ever compare. And, victims don't give their abuser weapons as gifts. Ever. They just don't.

That is the best magic trick I've seen in a long time 😂 that whole part of the trial was excruciating to watch. I wish you could've been there with that trick at that moment - she would've been even more dumbfounded 😂

I didn’t know you’re a professional interrogator too! So much knowledge 🤯 That’s amazing.

I can say as a DV survivor...she is full of it, especially saying she has "no ill will toward him." The statement of a "perfect victim" makes my blood boil also! Where to start with her lies?! The nightmares of being beaten and raped by my first husband are enough for me to still have ill will! The fact that I still deal with those nightmares occasionally makes me still have ill will toward him. The fact that I was terrified of relationships for so long makes me still have ill will still toward him. The fact that he made me believe I was not worthy of love or happiness makes me still have ill will toward him. The fact that I was told every day by him that I was ugly and stupid still makes me have ill will toward him. I could name many other reasons. Thank God today I know my worth and strength. He was the weak and ugly one...not me! I was a victim...period! She has mocked us DV victims with her lies and she should be ashamed! I truly pray for her ugly heart...she sure needs it.

I’m a DV survivor and AH reminds me so very much of my abuser who was obsessed with controlling me. I started watching the trial as an impartial observer…but it didn’t take me long to realize who was the instigator in the abuse and who was the abused. And watching her during the trial and in these interviews it is apparent to me that she’s trying her very best to get and hold his attention. Unfortunately these antics are at her own expense and making her a pariah to the whole world.

I've already left a comment with my story in it and just wanted to say that I really love your behavioral analysis Mr Spidey. I find your way of introducing the subject of behavioral psychology very interesting. Keep up the good work ^^

I’m an abuse survivor. While watching this interview, I was so upset that my tear went out. Because how she expresses things, how she smiles, how she reflect the questions. Reminds me exactly how my abuser was when he is in front of everyone else. No one, until today, no one believed that he is an abuser. I tried… but none of the ways helped… And I’m a petty person who talked behind his back…

She and her team made up the term “perfect victim” to make excuses for her inconsistent stories that contradicted themselves. “Sure, I bought him a knife, but that’s because I’m not the average / perfect victim.” “Sure, I begged him to come back after I got the restraining order, but that’s because I’m not the perfect victim.” They use it to cover up her lies. Shameful.

When Amber changed the locks on the penthouse then had James Franco over, I knew she’d never been abused. No abuse victim would attempt that! I’m still scared to death of my ex, who was physically abusive. I moved over 20 years ago to another city, across the country, and for years had unlisted address / phone number so that he had no clue where I was. Abuse victims will leave with NOTHING and not care as long as they can get away. You can tell Amber isn’t afraid of JD. In the last tape of them together, she’s saying she wants a hug from him! She still wanted to stay in his penthouse! She’s not afraid of being around him.

And if you cannot say something nice about anyone, say nothing at all.

What I, as an abuse survivor, often hear “get over it”. I was in an abusive relationship from literally the drive home from getting married. He did everything he could to control me, limit my topics of conversation, what I wore, who I had contact with including my family. The physical attacks were horrible, but I seriously preferred that to the emotional abuse. Married at 18, divorced at 23. It was when my boys were 2 and newborn and he went after them in anger, I thru him out - which is what he wanted and was too cowardly to discuss it. I was very lucky to meet a wonderful man for 34 years and he dealt with a lot from me. Don’t scare me, don’t force me into a room or place I don’t want to go, don’t yell or cuss me out, don’t grab me aggressively, don’t be aggressively during intimacy- and the list goes on. At 73, I’m here to tell you, it still affects me, not that I want it to, but it’s involuntary. My current boyfriend did a lot of changing because of my involuntary responses, flinching, getting soo nervous I shook, jerking away, soo anxious I’d get sick. Soo, even though people say get over it, they’ve never lived in terror, fright, beatings both physical and emotional. So here it is 55 years later and my scars are just a bit less visible. Abuse leaves a lifetime of emotional damage.

I understand the feeling of involuntary flinching and thing’s affecting you years later. I was bullied verbally and physically as a kid. To this day if something is being thrown across a room or outside, even if it’s not being hurled towards me or anyone else (or if my husband or son are just playing ball), I will always block it no matter what. It’s a reflex action. My husband always says, I would never throw anything at you or hurt you, don’t you trust me? I remind him that it’s not that I don’t trust him, I just can’t control those reflexes. Out of instinct I anticipate it.

I was abused by my father, so I have loving feelings toward the memory of him before the abuse started. All that said, he terrorized my life for about nine years to the point of attempting suicide and him finding me, nursing me back from it (no professional medical intervention was given) and him continuing to abuse me until I finally told a school nurse and demanded police be called. At that point, I hated him and didn't care if he killed me for telling. I just wanted someone to know before he did. This woman was not abused as she claims, was there verbal abuse? Sure, but I also feels she instigated most of it. This whole trial annoyed me, her talking to the jury, her obvious over acting, and assuming she could convince all within ear shot..ugh. I was a mess in court, I shook, I cried, I could barely make eye contact when retelling my side.
