A lot of the time when you're in an abusive situation it just reads as being 'the way things are', because it's very hard to get an external reality check on your own life. It doesn't help that abusers tend to gaslight constantly by telling you that their behaviour is perfectly normal, or that it's all your fault and they're not doing anything wrong.

Abuse is never black and white - from any family situation or relationship, there's good things along with the bad and that can make it confusing when you look at the big picture. Eg, the classic trope of the abuser buying flowers for their victim. It can take years to even be clear enough on what happened to say 'I was abused'.

This post is pretty helpful, imo.
