3)  The Hidden Pain and Anger

An abusive relationship naturally causes a lot of unresolved anger in the victim. Amidst all the cheating, lying, humiliation and psychological manipulation there is resentment-breeding and this leads to all sorts of personality transformations. As we learn forgiveness, acceptance, and indifference we release the old betrayals and open our hearts again. This is when we discover the deep pain hiding within behind the veil of anger.

4)  Lost confidence

Long after the abuse has ended you feel loathsome and unworthy. There is a belief that you’re not enough and you go on seeking validation and go on trying to please people. In every sphere of your life you struggle to prove yourself, look for others’ approval and this is where you fall prey again. This attracts people who keep reaffirming the internalized belief.

Self-love is the only solution. No relationship or job can fill the void. Once we start loving ourselves these wounds will heal. Once we realize we are fine the way we are and we don’t need to do anything to be loved we regain the long lost self-confidence. We feel at peace again.

When we do these things we meet our self again. We realize nothing but the question ‘what is wrong with me?’ was the problem. We start to brighten up again, regain our sense of humor, and realize that the love and confidence we were missing was always there inside our heart.
