It is customary to keep silent about this, but the statistics are relentless. Every third family has psychological, physical or economic violence, less often sexual violence, but it also exists.
This is that inconvenient truth that you don't want to believe in, but it is reality.
And everyone who reads this article may be affected by it or already lives in it.
Those who start a family do not suspect that they may find themselves in a situation that they do not know how to cope with. This can be systematic humiliation, jokes, constant criticism or feelings of guilt that are imposed. Or the partner won't let you see friends or family. All this is called psychological abuse. This not normal! And this does not need to be tolerated! This has to be dealt with.
In Ukraine, there is already criminal responsibility for such actions, which means that you can get help, both psychological and legal, for free. Only this should be used, and not let everything go by itself.
If your spouse does not allow you to freely use the money, demands an account for every little change you buy, takes your funds, does not allow you to go to study or work - this is called economic violence. This is unacceptable and one should not think that the norm. Every family member should feel safe. This is the norm that is important to learn. Domestic violence is not a family affair, it is not a shame, it is a problem that is important to solve. There is no excuse for violence, no - period.
There are misconceptions associated with domestic violence. For example: only dysfunctional families have violence. During my long practice, very wealthy women who had education, housing, work, but still got into situations of violence turned to me for help.
There is a myth that is so widespread in the minds of both women and men that it takes a very long time to explain that this is not true. It sounds like this: the woman herself provokes violence. This myth has nothing to do with reality. Women often condone violence, and this is the biggest problem.
A person who acts in the direction of violence does not need to be pitied, to be a lawyer for him and to justify him by his life situation. For every family conflict can be resolved without violence. But if the situation is not resolved, do not expect that all of a sudden everything will be well resolved. It doesn't work that way.
If your husband humiliates your dignity, infringes on you, criticizes, then after a year of your patience, magic will not happen anyway. We need to act now, ask for help, develop a plan. Your life is at stake! The worst thing that violence does is that it kills a person. Destroys self-confidence and reduces potential.
And finally, dry statistics:
* 95% of victims of domestic violence are women;
* 74% of offenses against the person are committed by adolescents who were brought up in conditions of violence;
* 60% of murders of women are related to domestic violence.
116 123 from a mobile. This is the telephone number of the national hotline, where you can get advice from a psychologist and a lawyer.
Take care of yourself, your psychologist.
