How To Know An Emotional Abusive Relationship
Proverbs 22:10 admits us using POWER OF PRAYER "Drive out a scoffer, and strife will go out, and quarrelling and abuse will cease".
The term ABUSE is highly powerful. MISUSE IT IN ANY WAY. Abusive relationships erode the victim's sense of self and well-being.
One of the key aspects of emotional abuse is persistent patterns, a system of power and control that's isolating people, degrading of another person, especially when a purposeful mindset and destructive behavior is present.
Though, we all cause emotional pain to others at times, that's why, some sinful action or the selfish mistake of any one around you does not necessarily define abuse.
But all abuse is destructive. They all build up tension, start to increase with both emotional, and verbal, financial or sexual abuse. People in abusive relationships may even be at risk of sexually transmitted infection (STIs).
The ABUSER may at times become moody and withdraw affection. The Abuser may as well feel that they are losing control and may panic and escalate their abuse, such as stalking. So the abused have to live in the relationship based on fear/checking, in order not to trigger the abuse.
If you're in any danger, pray and protect yourself, get out of the situation; talk to someone you trust, whether it's a friend or family member.
