Many women assume that abuse is always physical. But this is not
always the case. Psychological, verbal and emotional abuse may not
cause broken bones or black eyes, but when one person persistently
inflicts sever mental pain on another by the use of fear,
intimidation, humiliation and manipulation, the damage can be just
as serious. The resulting deep emotional scars may take years to
recover from. Susan Elliot-Wright explores the nature of this often
subtle manipulative behaviour and what can be done to break the
cycle. As well as offering emotional support, the author looks at
the practicalities that may be involved, such as consulting a
solicitor or gaining access to benefits. Subjects covered include:
types of emotional abuse; who may be a victim, and why; how to
protect yourself and any children; sources of help such as women's
refuges; can an abusive relationship survive?; helping the abuser;
forming a new life.
