==== Needs

MEANING: An essential requirement; the need can be one of survival or psychological necessity.

RELEVANCE TO ABUSE: An basic truth of modern psychology is that one must try to get one's needs met in a relationship or in a family. In an abusive relationship, the abuser is usually getting his or her needs met but the abused person is not. This imbalance must be set right in a recovery. Abusers often try to convince the abused, that the abused are getting their needs met by doing what the abuser wants.
