forced respite

Read a random definition: T.C.M.

A quick definition of forced respite:

Forced Respite: A break or delay that is not chosen by a person, but is instead required by a court or other authority. This can happen when someone owes money to many people, and some of those people agree to give the person more time to pay back the debt, but others do not. The court may then force those other people to also give the person more time, so that everyone is treated the same.

A more thorough explanation:

Definition: Forced respite is a type of break or delay that is imposed by a court or authority figure. It is similar to a regular respite, which is a temporary delay or suspension of something.

Examples:

  • A court may order a forced respite for a person who is experiencing burnout or mental health issues, requiring them to take time off work to rest and recover.
  • In some cases, a debtor may be granted a forced respite by a court, which compels some of their creditors to give them the same extension of time to repay their debts as the other creditors have agreed to.

These examples illustrate how forced respite can be used in different contexts, such as in the workplace or in financial situations. It is a way to provide a temporary break or relief to someone who may be struggling or overwhelmed.

Someone told me a while ago that I was probably molested as a kid because I don’t really have any clear memories of my childhood. But I don’t think I was.

Nah, the fucked up thing about therapists is they try and make you think your parents are your enemy 99% of the time and really they should be telling you that your parents have almost no effect on the rest of your life. If they can get you to keep focusing on your parents they can keep making money.
