How Do? I Leave

Why It’s Hard to Leave

People in abusive situations often face significant barriers to leaving, such as financial dependence, fear of retaliation, concern for children, or a lack of support. Emotional manipulation, guilt, and threats can make leaving even harder.

The Importance of Support

Recognising abuse is the first step, but it’s crucial to seek support. This could include trusted friends, family, counsellors, or local domestic violence organisations. Support networks can provide resources, counselling, shelter, and guidance on how to safely leave and begin the journey to healing.

Remember, abuse is never justified, and everyone deserves to feel safe, respected, and valued. If you or someone you know is experiencing domestic abuse, there are people who want to help. With support, hope, and strength, there is a way forward.
