there are many cases of stockholm syndrome in real life search it up. i myself had a similar situation where its hard to hate that person smh even tho its wrong and abuse ends up becoming erotic.
Are you baiting or do you really think Stockholm syndrome isnt real, despite the many studies on it.. ??
It's genuinely not. While people can develop emotional attachment, loyalty, protectiveness and dependency to abusers as a survival response. The specific concept of Stockholm syndrome as a "pyschiatric illness" is very disputed and not acknowledged despite popularity. The term was originally coined by Nils Bejerot based on a 1973 bank robbery in Sweden where hostages appeared to be sympathetic to their captors and distrustful of police but one of the victims, Kristin, later came out after the study was published that there was a miscommunication/misunderstanding. She and others felt the police were escalating the danger for the captors and were simply playing along to survive. Stockholm syndrome as a clinical diagnosis has very weak evidence and as such, is not in the DSM, or recognized as a psychiatric disorder. A lot of the motivation behind stockholm syndrome was used to frame victims of abuse (often women at the time) for falling for their abusers and thus digging their own grave. Of course things like trauma bonding, attachments and things can still happen but it's usually explained by other things and so, "stockholm syndrome" itself isn't real
Yes, it's called trauma bonding (a paradoxical emotional attachment that develops between a victim and an abuser) and it's real, the whole point with 'Stockholm syndrome' is that where this name came from is incorrect, as that situation in Stockholm and rubbery have nothing to do with trauma bonding, it was even documented that psychologist back then didn't even interview her etc., this is why this naming should not be used, trauma bonding is the correct one, but regarding to this series, totally agree, that was definitely trauma bonding
I love how there's a huge pool of stories based on stockholm syndrome but stockholm syndrome isn't even realb
