with support.
Understanding Domestic Violence
Abuse Isn’t Always Physical—But It’s Always Serious
Domestic violence is about power, control, and fear. It can happen to anyone— regardless of gender, age, or relationship type—and it often happens behind closed doors.
Abuse can take many forms:
Emotional Abuse: gaslighting, insults, humiliation
Physical Abuse: hitting, slapping, choking
Verbal Abuse: yelling, threats, intimidation
Sexual Abuse: forced acts, non-consensual contact
Financial Abuse: control over money or resources
Isolation: cutting you off from friends or family
These patterns may make you feel powerless, anxious, or confused. You may even doubt your own experiences. That’s why support matters.
