The bottom line is, Kelli had an experience in her life that she needed to UNDERSTAND. There was no hope of anyone in her life (family, friends, or otherwise) having the ability to help her understand her experience... or even care enough to try.
She had to go to the internet and search the globe (essentially) to find answers about what she experienced, to find other people who have had the same experiences. She had to share her own experience in hopes that people who came across her story would chime in with their thoughts or their own experiences.
People in her personal life thought she was totally insane. She wasn't conforming to the roles they expected out of her (wife, mother, friend, etc.) well enough anymore, and so they considered what she was doing to be useless, and crazy behavior.
When you start searching for answers to your own experiences, that no one else around you shares, experiences that other people in your life just CANNOT relate to, and don't even care to understand...
You will be outcast, punished, disowned, berated and made fun of for searching for answers.
You will be painted as a crazy person, talked down to, covertly and openly sabotaged, etc.
When you are no longer serving your indentured servant role as a "mother/wife/friend" and OTHER PEOPLE'S needs/wants/desires are no longer clearly the most important thing to you...
You will be berated by those people who are no longer able to feed on your energy the way that they used to.
I think Kelli did the right thing by finding people who could relate to her experiences, rather than never trying to understand her own life and just being a good, quiet, obedient slave to people in her life who needed to use her.
I think she did the right thing by escaping.
