Abusive relationship Quote by Anonymous
“I could never put my finger on what the problem was. I felt crazy at times and there were so many times that I would approach him with a very well-thought out point, but he had such a way of twisting things that I'd walk away feeling confused and unable to even remember my point. I eventually learned the concept of 'crazy-making' and realized that this was what he was doing to me all along.”
