“Personally, I can tell you from experience that abuse, whether mental, verbal, sexual or physical, affects your self -esteem your spirit and your soul. It takes work, patience, love and support to recognize and get through a bad and unhealthy situation. So, before we go I would like to once again identify the top 5 signs of abuse.
Controlling Behavior – does your partner keep you from seeing friends or family, constantly check up on you or try and control where you go?
Belittling Behavior – Does your partner humiliate, criticize or yell at you? Put you down or embarrass you or blame you for his/her own abusive behavior?
Fear – Do you feel fear in your partner’s presence, fear speaking your mind or find your self jumping when they make the slightest move thinking that he/she will hit you?
Threats – Does your partner threaten to hurt or kill you or your family members, children or animals when angry or threaten to commit suicide if you leave? Force you to have sex or destroy your belongings?
Jealousy – Does your partner exhibit abnormal amounts of jealousy? Constantly accuse you of cheating when your not or prohibit you from speaking to members of the opposite sex?”
