About Free From BDSM
Welcome to the conversation of Free From BDSM, presented to you by Open Hearts Unite.
Created by a former Dom/Switch/sub, Kristal Denise Garcia, Free From BDSM is about piercing through the illusions of BDSM and into the reality that BDSM is abuse and deadly.
If you are a survivor of BDSM, welcome, you are not alone, you are believed. The abuse you survived is real- BDSM is abuse. This conversation was created specifically for you. Welcome to a gentle and safe place to land and feel supported on your healing journey.
There are free resources free videos that will be on my social media via TikTok and YouTube [make sure to subscribe to be notified when videos are up!].
Freedom is your birthright.
You are precious and deserve to be treated with tenderness, respect and integrity. There is no tenderness, respect, nor integrity in BDSM- BDSM is abuse. There is no integrity in abuse. What is often confused for ‘tenderness’ in BDSM is actually gaslighting and grooming. Such as the such gaslighting/grooming modality entitled ‘after care’. That is a misnomer as there is no care in abuse, that is in fact grooming.
You deserve to be safe.
All genders deserve to be safe from abuse, sexualized violence and the gaslighting and grooming which keeps the illusion of BDSM in place. There is nothing safe, nor sane, nor consensual about BDSM. If you are here, you’ve probably already found that out for yourself. You are not alone.
What was done to you was not OK. You have a right to express that and be Free From BDSM.
Your upset over being abused by BDSM is valid, no one has a right to ‘debate’ your abuse there’s no such thing as ‘debating’ what you survived, that’s actually more gaslighting. Someone trying to ‘debate’ your abuse is actually just using a silencing tactic. You do not have to be silent, your abuse was real and your voice is valid.
Because of the ingrained gaslighting in BDSM, BDSM survivors are often left feeling confused, alone in the face of extensive victim blaming which is prevalent both in BDSM and in a society that is uneducated on the reality that BDSM is abuse.
With the conversation of Free From BDSM I am working to change that.
