To me, so long as you are on the road to recovery from this and are away from it, then labelling it seems less important. Not that it minimizes your experience, because what you went through sounds awful.

Oh, I see. Of course recovery is more important! I just wanted to give a proper name to this experience. Also because people didn't really react like it was something serious; I mean, of course they were shocked, sorry, and empathized with me, but they didn't give off any "you should have called for help, this is abuse" vibe. So I thought that I was just exaggerating with thinking that way, and that I was going nuts. That's why I asked.
Thank you for empathizing with me.
