Do you have to 'check in' regularly to explain where you are, what you are doing etc? Does your emotional abuser tell you what not to wear and/or explain the reasons why you should not wear any particular clothing?

This is because your emotional abuser wants to control every aspect, every facet of your life, your emotional abuser wants to know where you are at all times, they want to know what you are wearing, they want to control what you wear, they want to know what you are doing, this pattern of manipulative behaviour seeks to change you from your former independent, confident self and make you reliant on them totally until you begin to automatically ask permission about what to wear, you automatically seek their consent to go somewhere and you will begin to automatically contact your emotional abuser to 'check in' and tell them where you are on auto-pilot without even giving the situation a second thought.
