Many people will assume that there is no such thing as being mentally or emotionally abused, but it does happen to many people. A lot of narcissistic abusers are psychological abusers as well and they will get underneath your skin and cause chaos in your everyday life. Elijah's abuser was one of those psychological narcissistic abusers.
If you are being abused in any shape or form, rather it is psychological or physical, please seek help. There are so many people out there willing to help you, and all you have to do is dial the national domestic abuse hotline number or a crisis hotline. If you cannot dial a hotline number and get the help that way, please at least mention it to someone you trust and your abuser does not know or never is around. I hope you will remain safe and sound.
