I recently read a post on Face Book regarding how abuse comes in many forms. I would have to agree. Abuse may be silent, vulgar name calling, throwing things at a person, mind manipulation, mental punishments, pushing, cheating, withholding affection, and breaking their spirit.

At first it is silent, but as the years pass, each act of violence destroys a persons’ self-confidence and pride. They began to feel worthless and hopeless. They believe what their abusers are telling them; they are a piece of crap. And one day, the silent abuse becomes physical.

Until that one day, when the one being abused stands up to the abuser and says, STOP! I will not take this anymore and I am worth it!

Stand up for yourself and fight back, I did.
