How can I help a friend leave an abusive relationship?

I'm really worried about my friend. They're in an abusive relationship, and I don't know how to help them.

It's great that you want to help your friend. Have you talked to them about your concerns?

I tried, but they seem to think it's normal. How can I make them see that it's not?

You can start by sharing specific examples of their partner's behavior that concern you. It's important to be supportive.

What if they get angry or defensive? I don't want to push them away.

That's a valid concern. Approach the conversation with empathy, and let them know you're there for them no matter what.

Are there resources I can suggest to them for help?

Yes, you can suggest hotlines, counseling services, or support groups that specialize in helping individuals in abusive situations.
