This is a great article by Dr. Katz on how bystanders can be confused over what is happening in an abusive relationship. Some of the things she mentions here are also why victims get entrapped by these predators. For myself, I didn’t understand that it was all deliberate cruelty until the end. We have a tendency to apply the way we think about humans (that we exist to help others grow into their best self), and cannot imagine how a person who has a seared conscience thinks. And these predators go to great lengths to keep hidden their secrets. If you are trying to escape a destructive relationship through a life-saving divorce, please reach out to me.

I soon as I got my first paycheck working at a church, I hired Leslie Vernick to help me with my destructive marriage. Back then it was phone counseling. I was determined to “stay well” in hopes that he would repent. Years later, when it was very clear that no repentance was coming, I went through Leslie’s Conquer program to “leave well”. If you can come to this conference, it is well worth it- whether you are a survivor or people helper.

Understanding the basics of abuse is key to having meaningful conversations about it.💬 Abuse isn’t just physical - it can be emotional, financial, sexual, digital, reproductive coercion, stalking, psychological, & spiritual too. Also, abuse is about power & control. Every voice in the conversation matters, so raise yours! ❤️ #LetsTalkAboutIt #25DaysOfAdvocacy #Day24

When did you know you had to leave? Was it when your doctor asked you if you were married to a narcissist? What was the “that’s enough“ moment?
When you ask survivors what their last straw was during domestic violence, their answers will likely range from “the first time they threatened to hit me” to “the first time they put me in the hospital.” Survivors can pinpoint that moment in time when abuse took a sudden escalation and for many that’s their cue to find a way to leave, and fast. Others may feel trapped, either by circumstances like finances or housing that make it seem impossible to leave, or by the hope that they can still change the abuser. Either way, escalation is often a glaringly red flag that indicates a survivor’s life is at risk. Read more: https://buff.ly/3NLpDnj #DomesticViolence #Abuse #DomesticAbuse
Abuse Almost Always Escalates
