What people don’t understand about abuse and why it’s hard to leave a toxic relationship

Breaking Free from Narcissistic Abuse

The most common, useless advice given to victims is just to leave. Why do we say this when we know it’s hurtful and probably, not useful?

In this episode, we will examine the underlying biases and assumptions about abuse and abuse victims. Why there’s a cultural blindness to victims’ plight and how it leads us to neglect this most vulnerable group.
