Abuse Information: Throughout this section, I will try to guide you through my articles dealing with abuse and some documented statistics that I have come across throughout my research on abuse. Here, you will learn what abuse does to people in general and womens self-esteem specifically. These abuse articles are written to help you understand what to look for and how the person being abused feels and what they are going through. This is not meant to be a happy read. Abuse is a real issue that haunts many people of our world today and is responsible for many life long fears and low self-esteem issues.
Every abuser has to start somewhere...a name calling, a shout, a slander, a violent outburst, a physical tantrum, a lie ect....it does start somewhere.
We must learn how to stop it at its first step...we must learn to identify an abusers very first red flag. Do I sound extreme...guess what, I am extreme about this issue.
Abuse: They use the highest form of trickery to lure your child into their web. This trickery is one of kindness, and gentleness. They will become your child's best friend and shoulder to cry on. They will wait for the precise second to take their innocence forever.
If the time ever comes that you are forced to walk away from your child, you will experience what is known as guilt. This guilt will be a very natural reaction of a parent that has just suffered a great loss. As a parent, you must take control when the child is the abuser.
We have heard this time and time again. "Do not hate the sinner, Hate the sin". Drug abuse is a sin... an evil sin..a sin to be hated...a sin to be sought out and destroyed.
Victims have no choice but to survive. If they do not commit suicide, they learn to cope. I have mentioned in another article that some use drugs, alcohol, food, cutting ones self and even sex.
These are just some of the things that abuse does to the victim, creating a life of imprisonment and torture and for some no life at all. Victims do not just experience maybe 1 or 2 of these after effects, they experience all of them.
The shame that is felt by an abused person is so deep that it takes years to unfold, then years to put in a safe place. Some never get that far. They turn to drugs, alcohol, and even eating disorders that tear their physical being apart. Some even repeat the same actions that were done to them with, their spouses or children.
As in any abuse, people have a hard time identifying with the fact that they are victims of abuse. It becomes a way of life that until they really notice that it is NOT a way of life, do they start to search for answers or help.
