When many ask, "Why didn't you just leave?" they fail to understand the complexities that come with leaving a narcissist or an abusive relationship.
There is a very real thing called post separation abuse.
It has been reported that the most dangerous time for a partner to leave is a 72-hour to 2-week window.
If the abuser gets wind that the victim is preparing to leave, it can be incredibly dangerous and even potentially fatal.
If you are attempting to leave an abusive situation, make sure you have a plan.
