Abusive relationship brainstorm

Feelings:

Want to lash out at others for the pain inflicted upon me
become numb to the sensation of physical pain
walking on egg shells
living in constant fear
duplicitous
liar
timid
feel safe and afraid at the same time
constant reminder of bruises and physical pain
become all consuming
slowly distance me from all of my friends (one lie begets another...)
rely more heavily on the abusive person because everyone else is gone
sense of isolation
frail
inability to stand up even with words
combative (verbally)
joyless
lose faith in reason
