Replying to @lisatickel ⚠️Escaping Domestic Violence 💜 On average, 5,000 women lose their lives every year in the U.S. alone, at the hand of domestic violence. 75% of those women had already left or were in the process of leaving. The most dangerous and critical period for a dv victim is not when they are in the relationship, but sadly, is when we leave and the time after we’ve left. As a survivor of dv, I know full well the dangers, challenges and fears associated with staying, leaving & keeping myself and my daughter safe once we left. I also know how long a road it is to healing from it. If you are trying to leave domestic violence or have left & would like additional resources & support, reach out. We have a community of survivors along with therapists, psychologists, coaches & resources that are here to support you, encourage you & help you. You are not alone & I am so proud of you for continuing to fight for YOU. 💜 #domesticabuseawareness #domesticabuse #domesticviolence #domesticviolencesurvivor #dv #domesticabuseawarenesss #domesticviolance #domesticviolencesurvivors✊🏼💜💜 #abuseawareness #abusesurvivor #abusestory #abuserecovery #lovingsingle
