The more we hear about people “you wouldn’t expect” to stay in abusive relationships, the more that idea gets put away in favor of actual compassion for each and every victim.TRIGGER WARNING: This talk contains verbal descriptions of domestic violence.
If you are in an abusive relationship, a crisis counselor is one of the best and safest people to help you create an exit strategy. Do not tell your abuser you’re leaving, and be careful about who you notify of your plans so you can get out safely.
You can visit the National Domestic Violence Hotline website to speak with a crisis counselor or call (800) 799-7233.
