RE: Stop violence against women
Having spent a year in a very voilent relationship and overcoming the injuries and emotional scars of it, I moved on to meet someone I considered to be completely different. Opening up to him about previous relations with my ex, he then used this as a bullying technique. He was very controlling and the threat of violence was always apparant. Thankfully, I have moved on and I am a much stronger person.
I do believe that 'violence' falls under psychically and emotionally and it is important to recognise that women may still be suffering greatly even if there are no visible bruises!
Support needs to be readily available to cover all forms of abuse that women today suffer.
