Emotional Abuse Leaves Scars Too


My story is just one of millions who suffer from emotional abuse. Though one case can never be compared to another, it is still a destructive and lonely experience to endure - no matter the degree. It is always easier for outsiders to say "why doesn't she just leave him?" or "there is no abuse, he doesn't hit her!" It doesn't matter. If someone is being belittled, tormented, put down, or controlled by someone else, then THAT is abuse. Emotional abuse. And it can leave scars far greater than physical bruises. Because it destroys your self-worth and faith in yourself. Please, don't let it happen to you.
