Healing from abuse takes time and support from "summary" of Why Does He Do That? by Lundy Bancroft

Healing from abuse is a process that cannot be rushed. It takes time to work through the trauma and pain that comes from being mistreated. Many survivors of abuse carry deep emotional wounds that require time and patience to heal. It is essential for survivors to have support from those around them as they navigate their healing journey. Support from friends, family, therapists, or support groups can provide survivors with the encouragement and understanding they need to move forward. Without this support, survivors may feel isolated and overwhelmed by their emotions. Having a strong support system can help survivors feel validated in their experiences and provide them with a safe space to process their feelings. Survivors of abuse may also struggle with feelings of shame, guilt, and self-blame. These feelings can be overwhelming and may hinder the healing process. It is crucial for survivors to work through these emotions with the help of a therapist or counselor who understands the complexities of abuse. Through therapy, survivors can learn to challenge negative beliefs about themselves and develop healthier coping mechanisms. Healing from abuse is a nonlinear process that may involve setbacks and challenges along the way. It is essential for survivors to be patient with themselves and allow themselves to feel their emotions fully. By acknowledging and processing their feelings, survivors can begin to heal and move forward in their lives.
  1. Healing from abuse requires time, patience, and support. Survivors must be willing to put in the work to confront their trauma and learn to rebuild their lives. With the right support and resources, survivors can begin to heal from the wounds of abuse and reclaim their sense of self-worth and agency.
