    That type of abuse is no joke. I was with that type of man for 3 months and it felt like 3 years. It started out with jokes, then transitioned to verbal abuse, then he got so angry he punched a wall. Once he punched the wall, I left permanently.

    My ex did that too. Punched that wall right in front of me when we argued. He wanted to marry me and I said no. Rhag was 1 reason why. His dad was abusive and his mom would always say she didn't think her son would hit me. Yeah ok..

    currently I am dealing with this Im having a hard time finding resources so I can get away I don't have any family its just me he threatening me all the time and the police wont do anything unless he hits me. He's always gaslighting me and telling me I'm a whore a slut and I have sex with every man I come across. he stays out all night and I be so glad bd I can rest in peace I don't care what he does out there and it bothers him I don't care so he'll resort to verbal abuse then jumping in my face chest bumping me wishing I was a man so he could punch me and he has hit me a lot especially in the pass its more financial abuse terrible mental abuse its horrible when I reached out for help it took 3 weeks before they called me back I reached out to domestic hotline I waited for over 20 mins and he was around so I ended the chat still haven't spoke to no one. if I don't perform sex acts he fusses at me for days wont allow me to sleep turns the music up really loud so I can't sleep he is so spiteful and disrespectful and nasty towards other women as well but he'll always say he will fight a dude but I doubt it bc I witnessed him cop a deuce and did not want to fight I hate him and ion hate nobody else I'm trying hang in there but its so hard my mental health is deteriorating badly I see a therapist every week. I cant even wash my underwear I cant do my hair I can't wear decent clothing bc I'm being accused of doing it to other men if I don't do my hair or put clothes on he will talk about me call me unattractive as well as other horrible names I'm not working trying to find a job but I don't want him knowing or figuring out where I work bc he wld show up there most likely drunk and high off of weed cocaine powder e-pills molly Percocet pills heroine bukes and methodone as well as alcohol smh I wish I never met him GOD help me please

    This is so true. I wish more people understood this. Many women find a good man and they feel strange and will call him weird or “off”. No, he’s fine. You’re just used to abuse and neglect….I was sucked in by a narcissist that felt so familiar. That’s was the first time I had experienced that. Later I learned about narcissism and realized the familiarity was from my treatment in childhood and that narcs are natural predators that study their prey and know the right lure to trap you.

    We often hear about fight or flight responses, but we seldom speak about the ‘fawn’ response and the ‘freeze’ response. Fawning is when you play down what someone is doing, you kind of go along with it in some way, or laugh it off. Freezing is just sort of pretending it didn’t happen or waiting it out until the moment passes. I think these two responses are so common for women when trying to de-escalate situations with men because we are tying to avoid physical altercations. Please pay attention ladies, to the subtlety in dealing with people. We have to learn to see the YELLOW AND ORANGE flags, so we don’t have to even deal with the red ones.

    Freeze response...is what I grew up with. I feel such a strong fear inside me, that in response to harassment I never react back but just go into silent shock(=appearing frozen). And on the outside I might appear calm, but on the inside I am in a state of "about to have a panic attack"....and I can continue to listen to verbal death threats or humiliation while showing no sign of anger or disappointment on the outside at all....just frozen in time and space. ..... However, this is also a positive trait, at least in part. The thing is that the best response in the face of abuse is: DO NOT REACT - RESPOND CALMLY So, I already naturally don't react with emotions or screaming, I just have to add to this a calm response. I'm almost there. Just learning to say back calmly : "I understand your frustration, but I disagree with your view of the situation." Or "I see your point. But I have a different perspective." Or even shorter: "Ok. But I don't think so." is a great way to respond. Such responses are NON-emotional. And they can NEVER be used against you, for example in court, or anywhere in life. . . Therefore, if you freeze in shock, just keep observing and say to yourself: " I'm not being abusive if I disagree" So, you do engage - but NOT IN emotional exchange of reactions. You engage in a constructive and calm dialogue. And you are half-way there every time you freeze in fear....." I am from Russia. The Soviet History and Russian Imperial past for hundreds of years back is full of violence: hundreds of years of Slavic slavery/serfdom, political oppression regimes and hunger genocides throughout entire Soviet lands (both European and Asian sides of the Soviet world). In our language we have a saying "if a man (physically) beats you - he loves you"🥴..... I actually grew up hearing that a lot in Russian language 😢....the worst part is that over many years I became conditioned and fully brainwashed to learn to like it: any male attention, even abusive, automatically turned me on😢....

    Man of God this is an excellent analogy of an abusive relationship! I was married to an narracistic man and it took me over 20 years to get out of this marriage. Only the holy ghost gave me the strength to leave. DV is demonic and from the devil. I was broken when I met my ex-husband. Now that I have allowed the Lord to heal me and got Christian counseling Jesus has helped me to set boundaries with everyone. I am happy and full of peace and joy. I thank Jesus for his protection, love, and grace! I want talk to other women that have experienced abuse. The love of Jesus is pure and unconditional love. Women and children deserve peace and happiness! If you don't leave DV is a cycle that will continue with your children. Jesus is a delieverr and restorer ! God bless you!

    I grew up in an abusive household. The toxicity was so intense that everyone who was close/involved in a relationship to my father is either DEAD or disabled, no cap: my mother used drugs to cope, passed away from ccancer. Older brother: died of cancer. Younger sister: had a stroke at the age of 39. Another sibling ended up with an autoimmune disease. I left home at 18 and NEVER went back, thankfully I still have my health. Emotional and psychological abuse is REAL ya'll. The chronic stress will TEAR YOU DOWN. GET AWAY from an abuser as FAST as you can.

    As a survivor of a violent & sexually abusive relationship, truthfully I stayed b/c I was trained to. It's like breaking a wild horse. There's the "humane" way, where one patiently builds mutual trust and respect overtime. And there's the "cowboy" way, where they use whips, spurs, chains & run the horse until they have nothing left. The horse is so tired & broken that they eventually give up. Then the training begins. In my experience, the biggest red flags are in the beginning. When a person acts TOO perfect, when they buy you TOO much, when they say TOO many perfect things (overt exaggerations, love-bombing, lies). If it's too good to be true, that's b/c it is! So please, if someone shines brighter than the sun, I beg you.. don't be Icarus.

    It can be as insidious as crazy making. Making you feel like you overreacting to making you believe something wasn’t said or didn’t happen. That was a method used against me to try to make me doubt myself and my reality. It took a lot to be strong, remain assertive and trust myself enough to know that I’m not crazy. If someone knows you are willing to doubt yourself to appease their reality, it will get much worse. And absolutely, letting people know it’s happening and saving evidence is a must. I was always being told that I discuss too much of our business. No that’s business that needs to be shared for safety reasons in case something happened. I took photos and kept logs that were easily accessible to family if need be. Protect yourself first. If someone is abusing you, they are not interested in protecting you…they are harming you.. don’t protect them. Many abusers no matter what they say are also cheaters. They don’t respect you to begin with. If they are hitting you, they already don’t respect your physical body or your feelings, you have to respect and honor the person and the relationship not to cheat. They already disrespecting you

    thank you for making this video. i wish more male content creators would speak to abuse & femicide. in the case of the mother in St. Pete’s… she had just thrown her child’s father a 21st b-day party at their apartment w/ friends & family 4 hours before he killed her. i just don’t understand what could’ve happened in that short period of time… not that anything would be sensical to this horrific outcome. ugh. so heartbreaking 💔

    😢❤🙏🏿thank you so much for this video. I’m a 30 year old black woman who is very kind and sweet. I just ended a relationship with with an abusive guy and I didn’t even know that he was actively trying to manipulate me and groom me for abuse. I just never felt comfortable around him and he would always try to cross my boundaries. At first he loved everything about me and wanted to know everything but then as time went on during the very short 3 months, he would gaslight me and criticize me about my appearance that he loved before and he would also undermine my confidence and my intelligence. I couldn’t put my finger on it but I knew something was terribly wrong after awhile because he would always had something negative to say about any topic or thing I would bring up. He also tried to discourage me from making great career moves that would be beneficial for my future (I’m a Travel Nurse). I figured it was all due to insecurities. He came off like a nice guy but secretly he was terribly troubled mentally.

    Thank you for this video! I am a victim of DV and everything you’re saying is accurate. Can you do a video about the aftermath of leaving a DV relationship? I didn’t know this when I escape my ex but I wasn’t able to function properly. My confidence was abnormally low, I was paranoid, indecisive, sensitive, emotionally fragile, angry, ptsd, and ironically started to become abusive too when intoxicated. There’s a personal battle after the escape and it is brutal! However its an awakening journey I learned a lot about myself and childhood. I had to go into a spiritual wilderness to see clearly. I’m still healing and not 💯 but the Most High is taking amazing care of me and endless blessings.

    Thank you for openly talking about this subject that is supressed because of shame on one hand and lack of availability and safety for people to talk about this without being judged! When it comes to abuse, i learnt and noticed a consistent pattern to keep an eye on. Anybody that practices verbal abuse of any shape or form needs to be set a strong boundary... meaning, you consistently do NOT verbally abuse anyone... if you stick to respecting your own boundaries... you soon know when to call somebody out, tell them your boundary and what happens when it is broken, AND most importantly, YOU got to stick to the 3 things: 1- do NOT verbally abuse 2- set that boundary clear to others and consequences of crossing it 3- Stick to it firmly and unapologetically! I found original verbal abuse is a reflection of what is hidden inside the heart. From a fountain, we never get both salty and drinkable water... it is either one or the other, so let us make sure out of our mouths come words that build, bring wisdom, speaks truth in love, and nurtures the mind, heart and spirit!! The inability to sit down to talk about what makes people mad... whilst being cool, calm and collected... is proof that the person needs to heal and grow before getting with anyone else. I love you because i see that coolness, calmness and collectedness even talking about subjects that are obviously upsetting and close to your heart due to past experiences you witnessed and lived through and healed from thanks to God ❤ Your work, builds, pulls the good to the surface, calling out that which needs be NOT entertained. You are inspiring in more ways than you are aware of and i thank God for you whilst I pray that He blesses you, your family and the work you do, that it may be a blessing and a light to those who are lost. Thank you 🌻

I recently broke up with a guy i only dated for THREE MONTHS & i couldn’t really prove it until now but i felt like he was tryna groom me. The details in this video just confirm I WAS RIGHT! He even went as far as tattooing my name on his brow & gaslighting me like i told him to do it. I’ve always trusted myself but i trust myself so much more knowing i was spot on & left in the smartest safest way possible.

    It’s very difficult to have a financial future after your abusers fuck you up financially. You’re basically at a dead end and sometimes the only way out is homelessness until you pray to God to fix your finances. Some abusers trick you and you end up financially dependent and with no access to a bank account or job. They fuck you up THAT BAD. Some women really are down that bad. Some women get their kids ripped away from them & get kidnapped and admitted to the mental hospital & the abuser tells everyone to not trust the victim or listen to her because they are “crazy” or “mentally unstable”. And the abuser drives the victim up the wall with crazy making behavior and sleep deprivation and then does reactive abuse to further their smear campaign and bash on the victim’s name. Some narcs get their victims arrested & put restraining orders on them when it should be the victim putting a restraining order on the abuser. We women are trapped

    If someone threaten you in a joking manner. Know that every joke has a little bit of truth in it. If they can say it they can definitely do and will if you allow them. Couples shouldn't play fight, push eachother, throw objects at eachother in a violent manner, violently shake eachother, threaten, hit, punch, bite, stab etc. A person that loves you will NEVER harm you physically or verbally. Like Shumake said abuse doesn't start physically it start off psychologically. Anyone that loves you isn't going to tear you down. There is a difference between criticism and straight tearing someone down to make them feel awful. Ex: Criticism: I like your presentation but I think you should add music to make it more entertaining! Tearing down: Lol you are going to present that?! You are definitely going to fail. You are so stupid you can't even do that right.

    I was with an abusive guy who convinced me to date him. He asked and asked and asked and eventually said lets see where this takes us. I thought the smirk on his face was happiness. Little did I realize it was because it was little win for him in a bigger scheme to destroy my self esteem little by little. He owned a business and his life became his business. I was okay with him doing what he needed to do to be successful, but he always promised a future with me while I had to pay for food and drinks or help his mom with the bills. Or take off from work from my full time job to work for him for free so he didnt have to hire and pay an employee. He played cruel tricks on me, telling me I could watch podcasts or listen to music while I worked. The next day he would post a sign about employees losing their privilege to watch videos. When I asked he never could give me a straight answer and now that I look back it gave him the perfect oppurtunity to use and blame me for his employees losing the privilege to watch videos. Making them all hate me, of course no one would say anything to me so I didnt know what was going on. Another incident, he asked me to go to his work to help out after i had gotten out from a long day of work. When I got there and asked what he needed help with he gave zero direction and a few minutes, maybe half hour, later would send the employees home and close the shop. Again, at the time, I probably looked a bit impatient and useless to the employee who didn't know why I showed up because, honestly, I didn't know why I showed up. He could've told his employees anything, like I'm controlling or I'm not very helpful with his business or I wanted him to shut it down and go home and tell them he wanted to stay open and keep working. I'm speculating here, but with all the manipulating, lying and gaslighting tactics I've seen him use on me and others. I know he schemed and plotted to sabotage the relationship and make sure it looked like it was my fault. And when we left he would always want to go to a little tavern where he would complain that I always wanted to eat out and he didn't have money to pay for the bill because he's paying all the bills for his business and he has enough stresses and pressures in his life. I just ended up paying because I would get tired of hearing a grow male who is capable complain about picking up the bill when going out to eat was his idea. He ended up with a younger girl that works for him right after he made me homeless. And to this day he believes he was in the right and entitled to betray me.

    Thanks to God for not letting a toxic relationship, or marriage be the cause of death because it could've happened a long time ago!

    15:43 YESSSSS And TEAR YOU DOWN THEY WILL!!!!! Believe this ☝️ Typically emotional/mental and/or verbal abuse WILL eventually lead to physical abuse.

    I feel so dumb because this is literally my last relationship. I thought he never was abusive physically cause he never struck me but grabbing and pushing you is the same thing 😅 😮 I got out but every time he would say he’s gonna off himself if I leave him etc he got a tattoo after we broke up of my face 😮and I moved across the country to get away from him because he was harassing phone calling messaging me even after I blocked everything and then followed me from nv to Florida. And I’ve made it clear we’re done because he had an explosion of anger towards me out of the blue about cheating to find out he’s the one who cheated on me since the beginning 🧐 and now I think I need a restraining order …

    This is why it’s so important for healthy people who have experienced or observed abuse to tell their story or say what the observed. I grew up thinking this behavior was normal.

    Whewww the accuracy. Let my ex use my car while I was at work and he robbed three banks 🫠 I don’t have a record so the cops thought I was the getaway driver . He told them go talk to the person who own the car 🥴 true story 😭 been knowing him all my life I was truly in a fantasy world .
