374. Listen to the Mind of an Abuser - Our Eighth Installment

We want you to hear from the mind of an abuser once more...

This episode, our eighth in this "Mind of the Abuser" series, comes with content and trigger warnings: Domestic abuse, domestic violence, language, and graphic violence.

We have heard enough about the minds and justifications of abusers to have insights into what we would probably hear.

It would sound like the excuses for actions taken only to gain control over another person. It would be a relentless pushback. There would be no apologies. That is what you will hear in this episode.

This episode will talk about the Warning Signs of a potentially unhealthy (dangerous) relationship. But, this is from an abuser's point of view.

The voice you will hear on this WHEN DATING HURTS Podcast episode was created by a computer program. It is not a real person's voice.

The words spoken are a composite of beliefs and concepts expressed by dating and domestic abusers found within articles and interviews. They have been collected over nearly two decades. They have been reassembled as complete ideas and thoughts.  

This episode illustrates how abusers portray themselves as victims.

There is not one "portrait" that fits all abusers, of course, but many never take ownership of their words or actions, and they justify their abusive and destructive behavior.
