She Called the Police After 31 Years of Abuse, Then Everyone Turned on Her

Episode Description from the Publisher

In this Mental Healness Podcast interview, Nina shares her story of surviving a 31-year emotionally destructive and volatile marriage while feeling financially trapped as a long-term stay-at-home wife. After calling police for protection, she says she experienced retaliation, isolation, a smear campaign, and rejection from people she expected to support her. Lee Hammock and Nina discuss narcissistic abuse, coercive control, financial abuse, trauma bonds, silent treatment, scapegoating, and why leaving an abusive relationship is not always as simple as “just leave.” This conversation is for survivors over 50, stay-at-home parents, and anyone rebuilding their identity while navigating a toxic relationship. If you are in immediate danger, contact local emergency services or a domestic-violence resource in your area.Want To Be A Guest? https://tinyurl.com/Mental-Healness-Podcast-Form
