WHEN DATING HURTS

242. Julie - Pt 1 of 2 Pts - Brazilian Survivor Emotionally Abused for 20 Years


Listen Later

This is part one of a two-part story with Julie, who lives in Brazil.


Julie was in a toxic relationship for 20 years!


Like many stories, we hear, she didn't recognize this as abuse because, although it seemed like it, he never actually hit her. She knows better now that it was abuse.


Had he hit her, she feels she would have left this relationship a lot sooner.


Many of us cannot understand how anyone could remain in this kind of a relationship, especially for 20 years. But abusive relationships are full of rewards and punishments that knock a person down and then pull a person up. This is trauma bonding.


We thank Julie for sharing, because the more we know, the better we can stay out of abuse of relationships like this one.


NOTE:

If you are a survivor and want to share your story of abuse on the WHEN DATING HURTS Podcast, please email me: [email protected]
