Mental and emotional abuse

 Physical abuse being at the rise in our society, we often neglect how someone is also abusing us mentally and emotionally.

Mental abuse is something when someone makes you downgrade yourself even when you used to feel good about yourself, while emotional abuse is something where someone invalidates your feelings and makes you feel like you are the problem.

All of us and especially the women of our society face both kinds of abuse. And not just after marriage.

Even if there is no physical abuse in marriages, no regard is really given to the abuse that is being done to their mental health. Because, well at least he’s not hitting you.

Mental and emotional abuse is just as bad as physical abuse. It makes a person feel unworthy and unimportant.

It's high time we start seeing the the mental and emotional triggers that people around us uses to manipulate us and raise awareness about it.
