Arusyak Shahbazyan claims that her life would not have been difficult and full of trials if her father had not married her off against her will. According to Arusyak, her husband’s addiction to alcohol and drugs forced her to return to her father’s house, where her stepmother and constant humiliation awaited her. The current poor social conditions and the shortcomings of the past have deprived Arusyak of the opportunity to be happy today. Years later, Arusyak still blames her relatives for marrying her off against her will and for taking control of her own life.
