Well... isn't this a clusterfuck

I'm still not totally over the thought that this isn't some sort of social experiment.

Initially I thought the writing was very brave, to tell your truth in this way but I personally struggled to comprehend being able to relive my sexual abuse and stalking in that way. I hope RG got comfort from it, if that's what he set out to achieve.

However, I can't move past the self indulgent way that I believe it is written. It seems, in my opinion, to be him telling half truths about himself and his actions to try and make it so people don't press for more.

My daughter and I discussed it this morning and the fact we now know the resemblance from BR characters to IRL people is unsettling when the first episode (and possibly the others) starts with this is a true story - rather than based on, influenced by, etc.

I can't imagine coming to the end of such an ordeal and want to metaphorically poke the bear. I wonder how he proposed to deal with that, if it happened...
 
I mean I understand she is mentally ill but most bullies tend to be. I do not believe it’s right that innocent people are being abused and libelled in her mental rage. This Wray woman, and Richard’s father for example. RG made a programme that people enjoyed watching and now this whirlygig of mentalism is lashing out. Surely someone can step in before it ends in tragedy, because she will up her game if she feels she is being ignored.

The thing is, she is abusing people and libelling them on her facebook page which has 7 followers. I know we're all looking at it and reading her madness, but none of us are actively engaging with her. I wish people would stop reacting to her posts and sharing them. I think she's thoroughly enjoying the attention, but it's not going to last, people will soon get bored of reading her ridiculous rantings.

I agree, she may feel validated by the reactions to her posts and it spurs her on to keep going. She has an audience now for probably the first time in her life.
 
I’m sure the baby she’s talking about is severely disabled. What a horrible thing to say 😟.

Gadd's 2013 Fringe show, GR is named as a director and producer on page 146. The timeline is certainly right, and his Instagram story asking people to leave well enough alone only named Sean Foley as an innocent.
Also mentioning Sacha B C and others that GR has helped make famous!!!
