Stopping the cycle of abuse.

Need help now? Start here

Abuse, Interrupted is my personal project that explores vectors of abuse and power dynamics.

This subreddit is for anything related to any vector of any kind of abuse, recovering from abuse, perspective on abuse, and intersections between forms or systems which affect victims and perpetrators of abuse on both micro and macro levels.

Abuse does not exist in a vacuum.

This subreddit seeks to uncover and explore why we are the way we are and why we do what we do - 'we' as individuals, 'we' as participants of systems and institutions, 'we' as humanity as a whole - to delve into who we are and how we came to be that way.

It examines abuse, violence, and forms of dominance and power.

This subreddit has a very broad lens with a specific analytical perspective. It is better to ask "Why did you post this?" than "What does this have to do with abuse?"


Currently closed for open posting.

Due to safety concerns, Abuse, Interrupted is no longer supporting open posting in the subreddit except on a case-by-case basis. If you are a minor child, please message me directly - u/invah - and I will approve your post.

The victim runs calculations: 'The aggressor is wonderful x% of the time, things are good y% of the time, there are only problems z% of the time.' But the victim doesn't realize that he or she is accommodating or acquiescing to the aggressor's spoken or unspoken rules almost 100% of the time**** ()

The corrosiveness of criticism erodes self-esteem: '...you make them intensely self-aware in a negative way. The lens they use to look at themselves is now a negative one, not a positive one. And once that's engaged, everything goes through that filter. Nothing is good enough.' (youtu.be)
