Are you a pyschiatrist? Yes, the cycle of abuse is a real thing. But, saying a person needs to be abused is victim blaming. If that is all someone knows it can be very difficult to find the strength to break the cycle. But, the blame still belongs to the abusers. You aren't impressing anyone here.

not trying to impress anyone. won't get meaningful engagement on BlueSky anyway. you're my first reply in weeks. I should not have used "need" as my verb there, but it's subconsciously sought by some, very sadly. and yes, I was a LMSW before retirement--but not a psychiatrist.
