Summary : Are you abused? Is it possible to miss the signs of abuse? Whether you are a Christian or not, this book can help you identify abuse in your relationship or the relationships of your family, friends, co-workers, etc., outlined in short vignettes. But it doesn't stop at simply identifying abuse. Abused? Who Me? gives you practical steps to take if you are being abused, and tips to help if you see abuse happening in relationships of those you care about. Also, if you are a Christian, because we are seeking to do God's will, to love and forgive, we sometimes miss the common signs of abuse. We sometimes excuse behavior that even God Almighty doesn't excuse. This book provides a scripture- based approach to discern what God is saying to an abused wife. It identifies the signs in an easy-to-read format and gives suggestions for what to do, regardless of whether you choose to stay or leave. A helpful read for non-Christians also.

Summary : Domestic Violence is a serious issue when dealing with the hands of your abuser. Domestic Violence is a violent or aggressive behavior within the home, church or workplace, typically involving the violent abuse of a spouse or partner. Domestic Violence is also willful intimidation, physical assault, battery, sexual assault, and/ or other abusive behavior as part of a systematic pattern of power and control perpetrated by one intimate partner against another. I was in an abusive relationship with my abuser for a long period of time. I suffer a lot pain and heartache in the hands of my abuser. He had me brainwashed. He can cheat on me with whomever he wanted too, but I dare not question him why. My abuser told me, “I better not tell anyone and if you do I’ll kill you” Now that stuck with me for a long time. I never told anyone of what he had did to me. I knew I had to fi ght back in order for me to get away from him. None of that worked out for me. He always said the right words to win me back. Yes, I loved him and I didn’t want to see him in jail. I kept everything a secret from my family. I pray that if you are in an abusive relationship to get out and seek help. Yes, he may tell you that he won’t do it again but is it worth losing your LIFE? He’s going to tell you all the good words you love to hear, but is your heart worth losing a BEAT? Don’t be afraid to seek help. It’s up to you to get the help. If you know someone you can trust, please tell them. Always keep a journal of what is going on between you and your abuser. I AM A SURVIVOR of DOMESTIC VIOLENCE. I survive the hands of my abuser. To all women’s around the world who is going through an abusive relationship, there is joy on the other side. God will be there in the midst of your storm. May God bless you all!!!!!!!!! Ms. Survivor
