There are very private reasons a victim stays in an abusive relationship. It could be as simple as not being able to be free because the abuse is happening to you as a child under 18. But, nothing about abuse can be viewed as simple. Abuse is evil, has devastating long-lasting effects, and can repeat in future relationships.
Now I say, "She" in this video below but abuse can happen to anyone. It doesn't discriminate! No matter your age, sex, religious background, socio-economic make-up abuse can be found throughout our planet.
There are many personal reasons a victim stays and these include in random order:
1) Fear- Of change or fear of the abuser
2) Guilty- Maybe she didn't try hard enough to work on the relationship
3) Lack of resources- No job, car, money, or even a lack of support

Someone out there needs to know they are not alone and that they can survive. Perhaps you are a parent or friend of someone trapped in an abusive relationship and need to know how to help. My goal is to share awareness, offer empowerment, and educate others about emotional traumas and domestic abuse. Here I will share my story and also stories of courage and healing from Survivors, Coaches, to Therapists/Counselors.
