Support for the Victims of Abuse

Nature of the Cycle of Abuse

Abusive relationships are often confusing due to an unpredictable cycle that swings from good to bad and back again without warning. This cycle makes it hard for victims to discern if the relationship is real or a deception.

The cycle of abuse consists of four stages:
1. Tension Building
2. Violent or Abusive Act
3. Reconciliation
4. Calm

Skilled abusers use flattery and tactics like "love bombing" to gain and keep the victim's attention. Once the abuser has secured their interest, the cycle of abuse begins. During non-abusive phases, the victim holds onto hope of maintaining or restoring the relationship.

In the abusive phase, the victim may think: "If I ___________, he will praise and love me again..." This thought consumes the victim, but they will never achieve this goal because the cycle is designed to repeat indefinitely.

The only way to end this cycle is to step off the merry-go-round.

Why Victims Find It Difficult to Leave Abusers

1. Emotional Manipulation: Abusers use tactics like gaslighting and intermittent reinforcement, causing victims to doubt their perception and feel dependent on the abuser for validation.

2. Fear and Intimidation: Threats of violence or other consequences make leaving seem too dangerous.

3. Low Self-Esteem: Continuous abuse erodes the victim's self-worth, making them feel incapable of surviving without the abuser.

4. Financial Dependency: Financial reliance on the abuser makes it hard to envision an independent life.

5. Social and Familial Pressure: Pressure to maintain the relationship from family, friends, or societal expectations can discourage leaving.

6. Hope for Change: Periods of affection and apologies fuel hope that the abuser will change.

7. Children: Concerns about stability for children or fears of losing custody can keep victims in the relationship.

8. Isolation: Abusers isolate their victims from support networks, making it harder to leave.

These factors create a complex web that makes it incredibly challenging for victims to leave an abusive relationship.

Remember, leaving is a process. Survivors may leave and return several times before permanently separating from their abusive partner. Research shows it can take approximately seven attempts before a survivor permanently leaves.
