Do you agree with the statement:
"You have to first learn to love yourself again before you can truly break the cycle of abuse"?
Options:
Yes, I completely agree—self-love is essential to breaking the cycle.
I somewhat agree, but I think other factors are just as important.
I'm not sure—I need to think more about it.
No, I believe healing can happen without self-love.
I don't understand what this means.
