Yes, we don't really know what she is going through, though we get glimpses every now and then with her distress at various times, the look of helplessness that Humbert writes of, and of course her running away with Quilty.
If he was half as repellant as Humbert makes him out to be, it shows how desperate Dolores was to escape from Humbert, though it was a case of jumping out of the frying pan and into the fire.
