I see. That's a terrible thing that happened to you. I can see that it would be cathartic to deal with your rage like that.
You could also try talking to the animated doll. Pretend it's the person who betrayed you and explain what they did. Letting things out is a good way to make steps towards moving on.
[If it were someone she knew, she'd elaborate a little more on that- but sharing anything too damning about her identity was not something she wanted to do when talking to a stranger on the internet.
...Either way, it definitely fell into 'committed a crime' territory, she made no secret of that.]
you sound as if you've studied this sort of thing?
[Mental healthcare wasn't exactly a thing in Ancient Greece.]
( that's... um. thorough. and possibly a conversation better had in person. )
That's right. I'm a counsellor back in my world. If venting to your dolls isn't enough, I'd be happy to lend an ear to whatever problems you might have.
such a thing didn't exist in my time but i gather they are more commonplace in the modern world
[This person was being quite generous with his offer...she still wasn't sure how comfortable she was sharing her innermost thoughts with a stranger, but she took another note of his username in case she needed it.]
does your work usually involve listening to others vent about their problems?

[Perhaps the fact he was sympathising with her helped.
That was...an interesting suggestion though.]
talking to him?

Your vengeance? Do you mind if I ask what that means?
( because that could mean anything from "gave him a piece of her mind" to "committed a crime". )
Yes. It sounds a little strange, but there's research which proves that the act of venting can be very beneficial to our mental health.
