abstract="The purpose of the current study was to explore the experiences of women who have been affected by violence and received mental health care. A qualitative phenomenological design was used with in-depth interviews and personal letters in a sample of 29 women from a public mental health center of Madrid, Spain, who were affected by physical, mental, and/or sexual abuse. The analysis revealed three themes: (1) Living With Fear; (2) Feeling Guilty; and (3) Experiencing the Imposition of So-Called &quot;Womanly Duties&quot; (i.e., being a maid, babysitter, and/or sexual slave). The current study highlights the importance of developing educational programs for the prevention of abuse.
