Violence can be used by one
person to control or harm another. Abuse can include things like
hitting, punching, kicking, putting someone down or calling them
names. It’s important to know that the abuse is never your fault.
If you or someone you know is in this type of relationship it is
time to seek help.
If you or someone you’re with is in
immediate
danger, get away and call 911.
It’s common to feel confused
about your feelings for someone who is abusive towards you. Talking
to someone you can trust and who will believe you can help.
