What is Emotional abuse? This is episode #19 part 2 of my 8 part series of "What does abuse look like?"

The abuser's psychological or mental violence can include anything that impacts the mental health and well-being of their partner.

Examples:

• name-calling, insults, put-downs
• crazy-making, blaming the victim for everything
• jealousy, unfounded accusations of cheating
• intimidation
• shaming, humiliation
• socially isolating the victim from friends and family
• getting angry if a victim does not immediately return calls
• needing to know where the victim is at all times
• following the victim without their knowledge
• stalking

Someone out there needs to know they are not alone and that they can survive. Perhaps you are a parent or friend of someone trapped in an abusive relationship and need to know how to help. Message me privately for support or help. My goal is to share awareness, offer empowerment, and educate others about emotional traumas and domestic abuse.

This is the first of many episodes to come where I will share my story but also stories of courage and healing from Survivors, Coaches, to Therapists/Counselors.
