October is Domestic Violence awareness month‼️
• About 75% of women killed by their batterers are murdered when they attempt to leave or after the relationship has ended
•Homicide is the leading cause of death during pregnancy and postpartum
Stockholm syndrome is REAL.
•The abuser might alternate between cruel behavior and acts of kindness, making the relationship feel like a rollercoaster and reinforcing the bond
•The abuser often isolates the victim from their support system, making them more dependent on the abuser and increasing the attachment.
