What options does a victim have who is desperate to get their abuser into an abuser program but since the abuse is purely emotional it can't be court mandated?

Answer 1

In this case, you be the judge. Mental abuse is just the same as physical absuse. You might want to seek help or counseling to decide if this is a relationship you would like to continue. I used to be in a mentally abusive relationship, and sometimes I felt like I'd rather be hit than hear those harsh words. If you can relate, please think about it. I am so much more happy now that I am out of that relationship.
