Why is it so difficult to leave an abuser in a relationship
People in abusive relationships are often afraid of what will happen if they try to leave their abuser.
This means that victims may fear that their partner will become more aggressive or stalk them.
Because they are "at the mercy" of the other person, there is a fear that they will be punished when they leave the relationship.
This fear may be so strong that they would rather stay in a dangerous situation than take the risk of leaving their partner.
In addition, abusers may manipulate, threaten, or refuse permission to go outside without permission.
The victim also becomes psychologically dependent on emotional rewards and approval from the abuser.
Consequently, the loss of this relationship for the victim is a tragedy, a catastrophe, a loss.
After all, the victim’s entire living space is relationships, thoughts about the causes and consequences of the abuser’s unpredictable actions.
This is why so often people in abusive relationships need different types of help to get out of the relationship.
As a rule, people who have survived violence need psychological, legal and financial assistance.
