Verbal & Emotional Abuse - What victims hear from their abuser

What a victim of verbal & emotional abuse has heard through the years. You are not alone. If you are a being subjected to this type of abuse, the best book I can recommend is: "Verbal Abuse Survivors Speak Out" by Patricia Evans.

The song is by Red, called "Pieces". Please view my testimony video, under id twirling0408

I am so sorry that your Dad is not being nice to you. Do you have someone that you can talk to who you trust at school, church, or a friend's parents? You didn't mention how old you are but I remember when I was in school, sometimes I felt really alone and I dealt with a lot of the same things you mentioned. Looking back, I realize hope and help was there. Just know that you are worthy of love and that people care about you.

Thank you for this video, I just broke up w/ my emotional abuser. He was so charming, intelligent, handsome & helpful in the beginning but the things he said to me were so cruel, his withholding, & constantly putting all the "problems" of our relationship on me just depleted my confidence. He actually called me "deficient" on one occasion along w/ all the other unoriginal expletives. I don't deserve to be belittled in that way. He's just abusive & I made the right decision to leave him alone.

You are welcome and I pray you continue to find strength on your journey of healing and moving on. The book that I mentioned in my description is an amazing resource and I hope you check it out. Another one I recommend is "Healing the Scars of Emotional Abuse"

Most of those are mild compared to whats been said to me over the years. I've been called a f**king idiot, stupid, asshole, bitch, incompetent, unthinking, oh the list goes on and on.

@Sandmaven

I have to agree with you - the video is on the tamer side, simply because I was selective about what I shared, being that I didn't want an adult only rating on it. I'm sorry you have been called those things - you are worth more than that.

Hi! I addressed this question earlier, but the reason why this is from a female perspective only is because it is from the perspective of a female victim. This is HER story. Certainly, verbal abuse can cross gender lines, however, this is what one person, a female, heard. Thank you for your input and blessings to you.

Thank you. What to do? I suffered a nervous breakdown and my abuser gained custody of the kids. There is no way to prove the emotional, verbal, and financial abuse. I am free, but my kids still suffer his rage and abuse. I am left picking up their pieces and trying to encourage their growth despite their father's verbal abuse as it continues with them. What to do??

But I know that its verbal abuse against my physical abuse. I don't want to maximize and further make myself expel from college at the same time I am living in a unhappy life at the moment. Currently broke and just trying to get by. And knowing going to class with these haters doing that every time, I fear myself that I am going to snap any second there to send one of them to the hospital. Can anyone please help me! I am crying right now.... My man tears... No shame in it, because I am a victim!

I used to do kickboxing and boxing and I use to beat kids who try to uses verbal remarks and or shit talking, about what I wear and such and messes with my conscious. Don't get me wrong I am older now and I see that the past was wrong and to let go of the haters, but it seems to be kicking in once more. I'm currently 1st year in college and a group of people keep making comments and such about me to the point where I just want to kick their teeth in. But I know is verbal against my physical cont

[gerglesgirl]

I am forever going to struggle from the damage he has caused me, and the pain that lives on. My entire self confidence has depleted. This is a repair of damage I will battle until it's gone; however, I will stand up finally to overcome the pain and take back my life. I do hope that every man, woman, or child that is emotionally, physically, or sexual abused can find a way out. Sadly, I know this is a hope that will not be followed through because the manipulator tends to win... NOT THIS TIME!!!!

[danniellebaynton89]

This video hit home with me as well. I recently got out of a 4 year abusive relationship. They say love is blind, deaf, and dumb.. I say a target of an abuser is blind, and deaf also.. certainly not dumb, but naive in the sense that they just can't understand why the severe emotional abuse is happening, and because the abuser justify's their hateful, hurtful and damaging words and actions with "loving words". I feel a weight lifted in the sense that he is no longer going to hurt me directly but.

this video makes me sick to my stomach cuz this is how my entire family treats me
