They’re joined by Karen Bailey, a researcher from King’s College London, who brings her wealth of knowledge and experience to the table. Together, they unravel the myths and uncover the patterns of behavior associated with IPV and substance use.
This isn't just about statistics; it’s about real lives and the very real challenges people face when seeking help after an abusive relationship. The conversation goes beyond surface-level discussions, touching on the intersection of PTSD and substance abuse, and highlighting the obstacles in accessing effective treatments. The hosts stress the importance of avoiding victim-blaming and emphasize the need for compassionate, evidence-based support for survivors.
