UNDERSTANDING DOMESTIC VIOLENCE AND ABUSE!
The Charmed and Dangerous Booklet by Legal Aid explains.
To determine if your relationship is abusive you need to look at what the other person is doing.
Think about:
● how the behaviour affects your life
● how it makes you feel
● where the balance of power lies in your relationship
Trust your intuition: If something does not feel right to you then it is not ok. Look at this wheel and see if you recognise any of these behaviors in your relationship.
THE HELP I WISH I HAD
I have lived this life. I am here with you.
The second-guessing yourself. Where will you live? How will you afford it? Are you crazy?
I have asked myself all these questions over and over again.
3 years ago, I left my marriage and I was thrown into a journey of rebuilding my life one day at a time.
It was years of one step forward and one step backward, I felt lonely and alone and I made a promise to myself that I would help anyone I could not feel like me.
So! Here is a collection of resources I collected along the way.
I have also created a 12 Stage Program which is filled with 60 short videos and actionables that I have learnt along the way.
