You Are Not Crazy

Understanding the Cycle of Abuse


Listen Later

The Cycle of Abuse in a Domestic Partnership is important to understand if you are in an abusive relationship.

The simplest way I’ve seen the cycle described is this: the person gets hurt, the abuser gets away with it, and they both claim the victim is the crazy one.

On this episode, I will talk through the 4 stages and how you can understand them.
