Victims of abuse may feel trapped in their situation from "summary" of Why Does He Do That? by Lundy Bancroft

The victims of abuse often experience a sense of entrapment. They may feel as though there is no way out of their situation, no matter how hard they try. This feeling is not just a figment of their imagination—it is a very real and powerful force that keeps them stuck in a cycle of abuse. Abusers are skilled manipulators who use a variety of tactics to keep their victims under their control. They may use threats, intimidation, or physical violence to instill fear in their victims. They may also employ psychological tactics, such as gaslighting, to make their victims doubt their own reality. In addition to these overt forms of abuse, victims may also face barriers to leaving their abuser. They may be financially dependent on their abuser, making it difficult to break free. They may also fear retaliation or further harm if they try to leave. Abusers often go to great lengths to maintain their power and control over their victims, making it hard for them to escape. The sense of entrapment that victims experience can be overwhelming. They may feel isolated and alone, with no one to turn to for help. They may also blame themselves for their situation, believing that they somehow deserve the abuse they are experiencing. It is important for victims of abuse to understand that they are not alone and that there is help available to them. By reaching out to a trusted friend, family member, or professional, they can begin to break free from the cycle of abuse and regain control over their lives. It is never easy to leave an abusive relationship, but it is possible with the right support and resources.
