Abuse

Abuse, whether current or historical, can be deeply distressing for the person who has experienced it. Abuse can come in many forms such as; child abuse, emotional abuse, sexual abuse, physical abuse, and domestic abuse.

Abuse can leave us feeling bewildered or ashamed. Often feelings of personal responsibility or guilt are associated with this deeply distressing issue. It is important to remember that abuse is not always visible and can be difficult to come to terms with. Understanding the impact that being abused has can be very difficult to do alone. However it is important to note that some may manage to reconcile their about alone while others need the help of their GP or a trained counsellor.

If you are suffering from any form of abuse please contact your GP immediately and consider contacting a counsellor.
