it's Aishwarya here.Lately I've been picking up on some potentially abusive vibes from my live-in partner, and it's really starting to mess with my head and safety. I'm just not sure exactly what qualifies as abuse beyond the obvious physical stuff. Like is it abusive if they constantly put me down or try to control what I do? Or if they blow up over little things and make me walk on eggshells? I don't want to overreact, but I also don't want to be naive about emotional manipulation. How do i identify it? @Zanzanil

So abuse is not just physical it can also be emotional or psychological. Whatever you have stated above is abuse and you should definitely not stay with him anymore. You should have left him by now. He has no right to abuse you. If you want then you can file a case on him.

abuse is when they want you to be okay with something they won't be, if they were the receiver. abuse is when the damage they cause is more than the love they give what you have mentioned is definitely emotional and mental abuse. not being able to see this clearly or giving them benefit of doubt is because of the trauma bonding.

See AllI am a mother and an educator in charter schools and ABC Youth Foundation. I host several podcast it's a huge passion of mine and I also produce I strongly feel that empathy is the glue of humanity and without it what do we have for understanding one another and being kind toward one another is what keeps Us human it's what makes it work and without it what can possibly get better you must hold on to that and remember and show it where it's needed so that people can know what it is and be able to show that same to others connecting and growing with others is within the foundations of empathy that's how the world gets better so we can understand we don't have to directly know one another we must be that change and it starts with us, we must be the change we want to see!more
