There are a few reasons why disabled people are more likely to experience domestic violence. For one, they may be dependent on their abuser for care. This can make it very difficult to leave the relationship. Additionally, abusers may use the fact that their victim has a disability to control them. They may threaten to withhold medication or necessary treatments if their victim does not comply with their demands.

Abusers may also take advantage of the fact that disabled people often have difficulty communicating. This can make it difficult for victims to reach out for help. Additionally, many abusers are experts at manipulation and can convince their victims that they are the only ones who understand them. This can make it very hard for victims to leave the relationship.

If you are a victim of domestic violence, it is important to reach out for help. There are many resources available to you.

No one deserves to be a victim of domestic violence. If you or someone you know is being abused, please reach out for help. There are many people who care about you and want to help. You are not alone.
