What helped most in leaving spouse abuse: implications for interventions.
Women who are leaving abusive relationships rely on social support. However, their descriptions of the process of leaving, their reasons for leaving, and what helped them most in leaving relate to issues about the self as much as the availability of support. Clinicians who consider both of these resources can better support the decision making of women who are living in and leaving abusive male partners.
