Abstract | When cultural expectations and family honor intersect with violence, the consequences ripple far beyond physical wounds, reshaping survivors' entire sense of self. This qualitative study unravels how individuals navigate the complex aftermath of family violence justified by perceived honor violations. Through survivor narratives, including one participant's journey from victim to advocate, six crucial themes emerged: (1) Patriarchal and Cultural Oppression - where tradition becomes a tool of control, (2) Psychological and Emotional Struggles - mapping the invisible battlegrounds of trauma, (3) Abuse and Violence in Intimate Relationships - where power dynamics shatter trust, (4) Resilience, Survival, and Seeking Help - charting paths through isolation, (5) Empowerment through Motherhood - where protecting children catalyzes healing, and (6) Advocacy, Activism, and Social Change - witnessing survivors become agents of transformation. The findings reveal how survivors forge powerful support networks despite deep trauma, often finding strength in maternal bonds and community connections |
