TRIGGER WARNING - DOMESTIC VIOLENCE 
Allie G. speaking on her experience with DV. Unfortunately, this experience is too common. You get stuck in a toxic cycle of believing the incident was isolated and won't happen again but most of the time, it does. And it continues to get worse. You have to protect yourself and leave these situations ASAP. The pain of leaving hurts a lot less than the pain of staying. Love yourself enough to give yourself a better future because it's out there and it's waiting on you. 
"Domestic abuse is typically manifested as a pattern of abusive behavior toward an intimate partner in a dating or family relationship, where the abuser exerts power and control over the victim. Domestic abuse can be mental, physical, economic or sexual in nature."
