  • Thanks for all your comments!

  • Excellent video! This was so informative and this is a big problem in the healthcare industry -- among peers and coworkers, as well as many personal/family situations.

  • Thank you!

  • "The abuser tend to play victim or they take offence quickly" - very accurate

    Sometimes people defend themselves by abusing back once they can tolerate no more, and may appear to qualify as an abuser - and the real abuser will take advantage of that.

  • Bravo...thank you for putting it so succinctly.

    When will our inept authorities (system) learn to recognize these very basic characteristics???

    Police are in most danger when responding to a 'domestic violence' call that are mostly caused by some sort of abuse and yet they are NOT trained (or capable) of spotting the most basic traits.

    Absolutely inept officers!!!

  • @lovesmygirls213 you are very honest not a many people come forward like u just did I just wrote an entire thing on another video and I am the same as you only cause I have been pushed off the cliff Many of us hurt from previous relationships and tend to carry the wounded part of our selves into another realm

    Its so hard Ia m working on myself but I see where he and others just love to control and discipline and chastise till u r bleeding right out in the open

    its so sad stay grounded

  • What we know about emotional abuse is that the cuts that come from that cut deeper than any physical abuse can cut. What we know about emotional abuse is that MOST abusers like to have their audience of one--so that there are no witnesses to the nasty things that they say and do. What we know about emotional abuse is that some of the abusers portray an "outward" side of being friendly, funny, and socially acceptable ---UNTIL you really get to know them. Emotional abuse kills. Speak out more

  • I see alot of this in myself via deliberately send mixed messages, or ignore or just act cold. I know I have learned to be this way from a previous long and horrible relationship, and often, I recognize what I'm doing but I don't know how to stop.

    I'm in a relationship where I have been emotionally abused, threatened and terrorized I feel 'I learned from the best' and I can't stop my behavior now. I have been getting better, but I also recognize his tendencies and we need to stop hurting

  • this is so true

  • Thank you for this enlightening perspective. It goes to the heart of the abuser.  They are the GREAT DECEIVER.

  • My mother has a real knack for starting a sentence with a compliment and ending it with an insult.

  • @Neopetsfan777 You are right, this is a cultural problem -- the rise of bullies is evidence. I know you did not meat to blame ALL OF ANYONE..........PEACE AND HAVE A GREAT DAY!
