I wish you had given a little more information, but being abused is being abused. There are Women's Centers in your area and you can go there for help. They have councilors there that will help you, and also ways to leave the abuser environment you are in. If you are too upset to find one, then go to your local Mental Health office and they will guide you to them. Good luck Marcy
Answer Sometimes they can and sometimes they can't. Unless they is some mental illness going on, people can change if they want to. Certainly a mental abuser who is not mentally ill will figure it out when he or she gets enough negative feedback/responses from others. Usually when someone is a mental abuser they need professional counseling to correct the problem. Sometimes it works and sometimes it doesn't. If the person thinks what he or she is doing is okay or they get some kind of sick enjoyment, power trip from it they may not WANT to change.
Disconnect with the abuser. Take steps to heal and recover from the mental trauma.
in the thousands and many more are not reported every year. Abuse is abuse and can come in three forms. PHYSICAL, MENTAL, EMOTIONAL. if you are a victim or abuser seek help immedialty.

The best thing that family can do for a substance abuser is stage an intervention. Once that intervention has been staged, present the abuser with the opportunity to go to rehab.
Verbal and mental abuse are kind of a cause and affect. When somebody verbally abuses you so badly it eventually, over time, turns into a mental abuse which means you start believing what the abuser says, and less of what you feel and think.
Positive feelings by the victim toward the abuser/controller Negative feelings by the victim toward family, friends, or authorities trying to rescue/support them or win their release Support of the abuser’s reasons and behaviors Positive feelings by the abuser toward the victim Supportive behaviors by the victim, at times helping the abuser Inability to engage in behaviors that may assist in their release or detachment
The first - crucial - steps are to acknowledge that he is abuser and seek help. Abusers are usually in denial: If the abuser is also a narcissist (suffers from the Narcissistic Personality Disorder - NPD), this may be of some assistance:
If you are fearful of speaking out about your abuse, find legal ways to keep the abuser from harming you.On the very contrary. Sharing what you went through can help you achieve closure. Secrecy is the abuser's weapon!No. Exposure is protection.
In most cases your abuser considers you a "loss" and will move on to finding someone else he can abuse. Consider yourself lucky and never think twice about this guy. There are great programs for Abused Women, and I suggest, if you have just left an abuser or you know someone that has, to seek out this help. They help you gain your self esteem and confidence, they counsel you, help you find work if you don't have one, and will also help with legal counsel if need be. If you have children they will help in this area as well.
