Are You or Are You Not
Are You or Are You Not:
An Emotional Abuser
OR
A Person who is Emotionally Abused?
To truly appreciate emotional abuse (any act including confinement, isolation, verbal
assault, humiliation, intimidation, or any other treatment
which may diminish the sense of identity, dignity, and self-worth) we
need to understand that there are different kinds of abuse.
- Discriminatory abuse.
- Financial abuse.
- Neglect.
- Physical abuse.
- Psychological and emotional abuse.
- Sexual abuse.
- Verbal abuse.
I realize that
emotional abuse takes place predominantly with individuals who have low
self-esteem and self-confidence. These
individuals are normally trapped when trying to satisfy a need or a desire to
be loved.
LOVE is not blind but
NEED is.
While symptoms of
Emotional Abuse can be seen; the characteristics of an Emotional Abuser is not
visible.
Do
you know why an individual who is emotionally abused stays with their
abuser? My assumption is because they
love the individual and hopes indefinitely that they would change; their
concept of love is warped and also because the abuser satisfies some type of
need(s).
I
realize that from the outside looking in we see ABUSE but the abuser from the
inside looking out see LOVE or a NEED(S) being satisfied.
My
conclusion to assist these types of individuals’ deals with our ability to
(while gaining their trust) assists in improving their self-worth and
self-confidence by showing them how to grow themselves.
