"There is no agony like an untold story inside of you,"  Maya Angelou

It Should be Noted: 

Abusers are often survivors of abuse themselves.

Many of the characteristics are documented trauma based adaptations to childhood emotional, physical and sexual abuse. 

Abusiveness is a family dysfunction that repeats through generations. Just as addictions pass down through generations, abusers often leave their families for a family of choice - then repeat the abusive cycle from the other side.

The abused becomes the abuser and so continues the cycle. In this sense abusers and addicts are not to blame for their behavior, but they are responsible for it.

Accountability is a concept addicts, codependents and abusers have trouble grasping until they are well into recovery.

The note above is an excerpt taken from a recovery website listed in FIND HELP section of this web site.......
