Information for Women

According to the Australian Institute of Health and Welfare (2024), the most dangerous time for a woman in a domestic violence situation is when she is planning to leave, in the process of leaving, or has just left.

The risks involved during these times include: 

  • Increased Risk of Violence: Women are at the highest risk of severe violence or homicide during and immediately after leaving an abusive relationship.

  • Emotional and Psychological Impact: Women may experience heightened anxiety, depression, and PTSD. These conditions are often compounded by trauma-related issues such as chronic pain and sleep disorders.

  • Economic and Social Instability: Leaving an abusive situation can lead to financial difficulties and social isolation, which can further exacerbate stress and trauma.

  • Safety Concerns: Ongoing threats and harassment from the abuser or their associates, even after the woman has left the relationship, pose significant safety risks.

  • Impact on Family: Women with children face additional challenges, including the risk of harm to their children, the complexities of custody battles, and the need to maintain stability for their family.
