Physical & Emotional Abuse Support Group
Abuse is a general term for the treatment of someone that causes some kind of harm (to the abused person, to the abusers themselves, or to someone else) that is unlawful or wrongful. No one deserves abuse, period. Abuse can be emotional, physical, or sexual.
Today I helped a friend leave her verbally abusive husband, I feel so blessed that I could help support my friend since I have been where she is currently! have any of you been able to help others in your circles?
I am 63, I really don't know anyone personally who is in a abusive relationship. Seems like it is more prevalent now, with the younger people, than it used to be OR just that no one talks about it. If I knew of someone, I would definitely would help them.
good for your friend!
I have facilitated
on-the-ground
support circles
all around Connecticut
for the past six and a half
years. It's not always easy
but I'm so blessed to be
able to reach people in
crisis and transition.
It indeed, seems to be
a part of recovery, to be
able to reach out and
help someone leave
abuse and arrive at
a place of safety
and satisfaction.
Good for you, for
using your life
and insights.
