Signs of Abuse

Sometimes it is difficult and confusing to admit that you are in an abusive relationship, or to find a way out, but there are clear signs to help you know if you are being abused. If the person you love or live with does any of these things to you, it's time to get help:


Keeps track of what you are doing all the time and criticizes you for little things.

Constantly accuses you of being unfaithful.

Prevents or discourages you from seeing friends or family, or going to work or school.

Gets angry when drinking alcohol or using drugs.

Controls all the money you spend.

Humiliates you in front of others.

Destroys your property or things that you care about.

Threatens to hurt you or the children or pets, or does cause hurt (by hitting, punching, slapping, kicking, or biting).

Uses or threatens to use a weapon against you.

Forces you to have sex against your will.

Blames you for his/her violent outbursts.

Wow.....6 of ? Thats what my relationship is made up of "Signs of abuse"

:confused: WOW there is only 1 thing on that list that he hasnt done to me. i wish i had the courage to leave him. i feel so alone i am 24 and have 2 children 5 & 6. i am afraid of calling for help because i dont want the state of PA to take my children. what do i do? i made him move out of my house last year and the night i let him come home (not to stay) i lost my house in a fire, i had no choice but to move to PA with him. biggest mistake of my life... i use to be so strong and never put up with this stuff but now i dont even have the strength to fight back. xxvanillakiss4u@hotmail.com
