Stalked By Love PDF Download

I Know You Really Love Me unfolds like a psychological thriller, as Orion first finds herself the subject of obsessive love and then unsuccessfully tries to free herself of her patient, pseudonym Fran. This demanding, calculating woman doggedly follows Orion state-to-state, and continues to stalk her to this day - eight years and counting. In this painfully honest account you will follow the victim step-by-step, as she finds herself engulfed in Fran's erotomanic fantasy and then struggles to regain control over both her personal and professional lives. In the process, she educates herself about the history of this little-understood mental disorder, meets other victims, and eventually finds the courage to tell her story to others here in these pages. Orion's engrossing personal drama also provides the first overview of erotomania, including case histories of stalking victims, from David Letterman and Madonna to a woman rabbi, an Olympic athlete, and scores of others; unbelievable true stories of the depths to which the wily stalker will go - such as "The Tunneler", who dug his way beneath an apartment building to get at his victim; and cases that led to murder, of either the victim or the stalker. In a final section the author discusses the need for adequate treatment and punishment of erotomanics, and points out problems in existing anti-stalking laws and ways to strengthen them. A guide to organizations that assist victims, plus protective measures to deter a potential stalker or erotomanic, are provided as well.
