institutions. But you don't have to live with it. In this
groundbreaking companion to her bestselling The Verbally Abusive
Relationship, acclaimed public speaker, educator and author
Patricia Evans brings you the tools you need to triumph over verbal
abuse, no matter where or how you encounter it. She'll guide you

answers you need to recognize abuse when it happens, respond to
abusers safely and appropriately, and most important, lead a

In two all-new chapters, Evans reveals the Outside Stresses
driving the rise in verbal abuse - and shows you how you can
mitigate the devastating effects on your relationships. She also
outlines the Levels of Abuse that characterize this kind of
behavior - from subtle, insidious put-downs that can erode your
self-esteem to full-out tantrums of name-calling, screaming, and
threatening that can escalate into physical abuse.
Drawing from hundreds of real situations suffered by real people
just like you, Evans offers strategies, sample scripts, and action
plans designed to help you deal with the abuse - and the
abuser.

week, denies being angry when he clearly is, does not work with you
to resolve important issues, rarely or never seems to share
thoughts or plans with you, or tells you that he has no idea what

problems...you need this book. Verbal Abuse: Survivors Speak Out
