Write Short Notes on the following in 50 60 words:

Measures of dealing with Emotional Abuse

Short Note

Solution

Emotional abuse is any kind of abuse that is emotional rather than physical in nature. It occurs when one person subjects or exposes another person to intentionally harmful behaviour that may result in anxiety, depression, and psychological trauma to the victim.

The types of emotional abuse may be -

  1. verbal abuse such as blaming, insulting, labeling, threatening, swearing, etc.
  2. non-verbal abuse such as ignoring, rejection, bullying, spying. etc.

The most important technique is to break the silence and stand up for yourself.

  1. Accept that emotional abuse is not because of you, i.e., don't justify the actions of the abuser.
  2. Respond assertively to the abuser but seek distance from him her.
  3. Give yourself time to heal.
  4. Prioritize your self-care, e.g., eating right, exercise, etc.
  5. Mobilise support from family and friends. If needed, seek professional help.
