Can abusers defy odds and make a complete turn-around?

Can a not physical but mentally abusive person defy all odds and make a complete turn around in their attitudes for the better and stay better with a lot of determination? Is supporting them important?

Only if they want to. It can’t be forced upon them. But if they truly desire it and work at it, then yes they can change. And support is always important.

    Likely? Not by a long shot.

    Support would be very important but therapy would be crucial.

    It depends on the trust and/or responsibility that person has which should determine if they deserve a second chance to begin with..

    Can it be done… probably, unfortunately for them they might never be trusted ever again by the people involved in the abuse, so it’s a very vicious circle.

    The odds are FOR him saying he is doing that, and against him actually doing so. Greatly against it in fact.
