'Certainly, years of abuse can lead to a distorted view of the world and therapy will help regain a better adjusted view.'
Rappler's Life and Style section runs an advice column by couple Jeremy Baer and clinical psychologist Dr Margarita Holmes.
Why do I feel guilty all of a sudden after hearing a news that my husband looks down, lose weight already & seems lonely? Will I be blamed if something bad happens to him?In my limited experience, it is often the case that in an abusive relationship one party is prone to narcissism whereas the other suffers from a lack of self esteem. The abuser is able to shower the abused with love and the abused feels this love filling a void.
Despite the fact that you are feeling guilty about leaving your husband, there is good news all around: If he had controlled all aspects of your life too quickly, you would have noticed and left in a hurry. However, he was successful in his campaign to first woo you and have you fall in love with him; and then control you first through your love for him and later through your fear of him.
