Depression After Ending An Abusive Relationship - Information And Support

I am living in Europe and English is not my native language

, please excuse any grammatical errors in this article. I am currently doing brain research in university in my home country and during last few years I have become interested in the biological and physiological mechanisms of depression caused by abuse in a relationship.

Relationships end for various different reasons. Separation is changing the life of both partners. Losing a long term partner in life can lead to depression. If a relationship has been abusive, it is often harder to get over the sadness caused by separation. When one is ending an abusive relationship, one must not only deal with the pain caused by separation itself but also recover from depression caused by the abuse.

It often takes several attempts to break free from an unhealthy relationship. After separation it is very likely that the depression of the abused partner gets transiently worse before the improvement starts. During this vulnerable period there is a risk that one is misinterpreting the worsening of one's condition to be the consequence of the separation itself rather than a sign of a healing process. One might feel the depressed feeling is a proof that one truly loves one's partner despite the abuse. This misinterpretation often makes one to return to an abusive relationship. In a way the abused person is behaving like a drug addict, who is experiencing withdrawal symptoms and is looking for relief from the relationship that once brought joy and happiness into one's life, before things started to go wrong.

If depression is caused by abuse in a relationship, the recovery process cannot begin as long as the abuser is part of one's life. It is hard to leave a person with whom one has been sharing life for a long time, however if it seems clear that the abuser is not willing to change, staying in the relationship is only making matters worse for the abused partner.

If you are in an abusive relationship the most important thing is to understand that you do not have to go with the flow. You can help your mind and your brain to recover from depression by teaching your mind and brain to adapt new ways of responding in a given situation, in same fashion as you can train your muscles to work in a new way while learning to ride a bicycle, to dance etc. Understanding the biological and psychological mechanisms that are causing the depression help you to start the process of changing the way your mind works and hence get over depression faster.
