Change your thoughts and you change your world – Norman Vincent Peale

Women are more likely to be killed by their intimate partners than by any other type of perpetrator.

You May Be Abused If…

  • You are frightened by your partner’s temper
  • You are afraid to disagree with your partner
  • You have been hit, kicked, or shoved by your partner
  • You do not see friends or family because of your partner’s jealousy
  • You have been forced to have sex or have been afraid to say no to sex
  • You have been forced to explain everything that you do, every place that you go and every person that you see to avoid your partner’s temper
  • You believe that you cannot live without your partner or that you cannot get enough of your partner
  • You believe that marriage will change your partner
  • Your partner makes you feel worse about yourself
  • You have fewer and fewer happy times together, and more and more of your time is spent on apologies, promises, anger, guilt and fear
