Is it Possible for an Emotional Abuser/(abusive) person to change?
Can someone who is emotionally abusive change with "compassionate love" (killing with kindness", so to speak,) therapy with a psychiatrist and counseling, talking about their past and feelings and getting them to face their emotionally abusive past (as a child, teen, or in past relationships>either as the abuser or victim) and having support from a supportive caring friend/person? I know this person has anger issues…he needs anger management counseling; has had a rough rocky abusive childhood-he grew up watching his parents fight and argue which I believe he believes is the model for a good relationship. Can people like these ever truly heal and change? Anyone have any real experience or seen this happen?
I believe if this person is willing to try and change, willing to see a psychiatrist, and very open about his past, I believe it is definitely possible. If psychiatrists were useless, there wouldn’t be any. He needs to find one he is comfortable with and just open up about everything. If he isn’t willing to get any help, then I don’t see him changing.

If they want to badly enough yes. Most people don’t though.

It’s possible, but the only catch is that they have to truly want to change. If they change their behavior just to accommodate to another person’s begging, for example, they’re not tackling the root of why they do it in the first place, and it’s bound to repeat again.

some will and some wont……..it depends on a lot of things, but mostly how much they want to , and then do it themselves……..with the right help, of course…….
that is my short answer……..
He will have to work hard for it……..and it sounds like his hormones need balancing also, due to all the stress they can get out of whack ……..
