The National Domestic Violence Hotline is a good start, and there are local women help centers who can offer you one-on-one counseling, and protection if needed. Their number is in your phone book, or listed through the hospital Emergency Room, the Police Dept. Churches, Welfare office, etc. Somebody can get you the help you seek.
Avatar f tn I'm sorry to hear this is happening to you no one deserves that. I was in a abusive relationship years ago when I was a teen he was 5 years older than me. You just got to get out. It won't stop and only gets worse. When you get and chance call the police they will take him to jail when they get there but will probably be in for just and day. When he's in jail get a restraining order and stay away from him.

501205 tn?1227345442 I dont know if anyone knows about it but it is about the affects of alcohol and domestic violence on this tribal family living in New Zealand. Our counselor is from a reservation and said that the kinds of abuse shown in this movie were common where she grew up. The violence in this film is so horrific and sickening some people walked out of the room and didnt come back. I saw it in school years ago but I hadnt realized that it dealt so much with alcoholism.
Avatar f tn This morning my EX fiancé choked me, slapped me, hit my head, and banged my head against the wall. I have a bruise on my chin and slightly on my neck and my lip is cut open a swollen. My question is should I see medical attention or are the following symptoms basic side effects from being choked and slapped: my ears hurt, my face aches, my neck hurts especially when I swallow and my head is killing me. Please help, I really don't want to go to the hospital and have to relive that again.
Avatar f tn My partner and I have been together for 4 years. Our relationship started out almost like a fairytale, then turned into a nightmare. There was a lot of domestic violence, and he's now in prison for it. He's not serving a very long sentence as I've stood by him, withdrawing statements and trying to get him out of trouble basically. Due to the violence and stuff, no one in my family knew I was seeing him, and I didn't talk to his family either.
Avatar m tn Police, prosecutors and judges are generally harsher with men in domestic abuse cases, says Brown. And, he adds, judges rarely punish women who violate court orders. He recalls appearing before the same judge four times in two months because of a woman who wasn't giving her ex access to the children. The judge warned her there would be consequences for breaching a court order - but he never followed through.
Avatar f tn My Mom was cooking spaghetti and my Dad reached out to grab or hit her and she took the metal strainer she was using and swung it and struck him in the head with it. From that moment on he never put his hands on her again. You need to make this stand and try your best and not let him hurt you anymore. And even though my Dad never hit my Mom again he was extremely emotionally and mentally abusive to my Mom which still affects her to this day.
1530342 tn?1405016490 I'm now excusing or condoning Domestic Violence......I do have to agree with her a lil when she says women should make better choices. I do understand that once in a situation like domestic abuse, it's easier said than done to leave due to fear, mental abuse etc......Now don't rip me a new one for this. I just kind of agree...
Avatar f tn ) The Coalition Against Domestic Violence told the website that domestic violence in front of a child under the age of 14 in that state can result in felony charges. Law enforcement in Indiana confirmed to HollywoodLife.com that the charges are a possibility in Portwood's case. But that's not all. The Indiana Department of Child Services is also investigating the situation. The DCS told HollywoodLife.
Avatar f tn My boyfriend and father to my child smashed in my windshield and is currently in jail for domestic violence and criminal mischief. My emotions are going crazy right now and its ridiculous how painful this is for me. I miss my boyfriend and I just want our happy little family to become reality but I just don't know what to think anymore. If anyone has advice it'd be appreciated...
Avatar f tn t live with him he came over saying he wanted to check on me and everything after my last health scare with our baby then idk what happen we started talking and he hits me so yeah I hit him one time but I mean it was self defense and I did call the cops and I hope to god he never gets to see Ari
Avatar f tn There is a warrant out for my bd on a domestic violence charge I put on him almost 2 months ago. I honest to God am scared to let him anywhere near my child. Although I don't want to take my son away from his dad but there is something seriously wrong with him for him to be able to treat me how he has with our baby growing in me. I just feel like he really doesn't care about him and will be very careless.
Avatar f tn Don't put yourself in a situation that you can't handle!!! You want to hit like your a man get hit back like a man. I don't condone violence at all. I am a survivor of domestic abuse. Keep your hands to yourself. If you can't do that prepare yourself to get hit back.
Avatar f tn When you have time go on YouTube and search for Susan Still. She survived and domestic violence relationship for over 20 years. Her husband forced their son to record him beating her and berating her.
Avatar f tn I decided to pack up n leave finally after so much emotional abuse and tension yelling trust issues. I'm almost 9 months pregnant and wish I had done it sooner. I just hope anyone who is in a bad relationship leaves no matter how hard it is your baby is more important. I chose my baby. I'm terrified and I don't know how or where to go from here. So if you are going through the same thing you're not alone.
Avatar f tn Some women say that emotional abuse almost feels worse than physical abuse because if they were physically abused and had bruises and broken bones, at least everyone could SEE them and it would be more obvious. But the fact is that Emotional Abuse is still abuse. Does he only yell or does he do other things too that don't technically cross the line into physical abuse but make you feel scared or controlled?

Avatar f tn hi I know you dont know me but I read your post and I felt that I should help you I contacted a domestic violence shelter in Florida called Harbor house, I asked them what you could do because I am from another state and I am unsure of the laws down there. anyway this is what I already knew you should get counseling to help you with the abuse and the affect it has had on you emotionally.
