Various Faces of Abuse

Jun 8, 2001 - © Laura Wilkinson

type of abuse, but in my links are all kinds of horror stories about it. Symptoms of abuse is especially informative, although be forewarned, it has some very frightening statistics in it. I can tell you this: verbal and emotional abuse can turn into physical abuse if the verbal abuse doesn't seem to be "working" anymore. And that's the scary part.

The good news is: You don't have to put up with any of it. Arm yourself with knowledge and REFUSE TO ACCEPT his abuse. You can TELL him, "I know what you are doing, and I will not accept it any more." It's hard to do at first, but sisters, let me tell you: the end is worth it. Remember, you had a smile once; go get it back!

These types of abuse are simply ways to beat you down. The abuser is only a schoolyard bully in a man's body; if you can remember that, you will be a step ahead. He abuses because he was abused. It's not an excuse for him, only an explanation. BUT YOU DON'T HAVE TO TAKE IT. You have every right to be loved and nurtured, just like everyone else. Don't accept anything less.

Email me if you have specific questions. May you find peace.
