Domestic violence through narcissistic control is a heartbreaking cycle that requires understanding and intervention. This emotional discussion explores the patterns of abuse, manipulation tactics, and the complicated reality of why victims often stay with their abusers despite having loving support systems.
• Narcissistic abusers maintain control through mental manipulation, making victims believe they are the problem
• The cycle of abuse creates a sense of helplessness where victims make excuses for their abusers' behavior
• Family members and friends often feel powerless when watching loved ones trapped in abusive relationships
• Victims typically need to recognize the problem themselves before they can successfully leave
• Children of abuse survivors develop heightened awareness of these relationship dynamics
• Football season kicks off with Ravens dominating Commanders 30-3 in preseason action
• Weekly Tuesday football discussions coming with TJ covering all NFL games
If you know someone in an abusive situation, please continue to show them love and support. They need to know there are people who care about them and will be there when they're ready to leave.
