        abstract = {Domestic violence, a pervasive social issue, manifests in multiple forms including physical abuse, emotional manipulation, psychological intimidation, sexual coercion, and financial control. These manifestations are often interlinked, creating a cycle of abuse that can be difficult to recognize and even harder to escape. Victims often endure long-term trauma, including depression, anxiety, PTSD, and socio-economic instability. The road to recovery is complex, requiring not only legal and medical intervention but also sustained psychological support, community involvement, and policy reform. This paper explores the multifaceted expressions of domestic violence, analyzes their psychological and social impacts, and outlines pathways to recovery with a victim-centric approach. It also highlights the importance of awareness, early intervention, and a multidisciplinary support system to break the cycle of abuse and promote long-term healing.},
