“You can’t do anything right”. “This is your fault – It’s always your fault”.

Many of us have grown up, been in a relationship with, worked for, or even been coached by, someone who was emotionally abusive. It is often seen as a normal part of the culture of the organization and tolerated.

People who are the target of emotional abuse are made to feel insignificant and incapable. They may actually begin to feel that they have brought this on themselves and that it really is their fault.

Here Are Today’s Tips For Building Your Resiliency And Celebrating Bullying Awareness Week

If you are the Recipient of someone else’s abusive behaviour:

Take precautions – look for the signs of excessive jealousy and control
Don’t blame yourself for the way other person is treating you
Believe in yourself – believe that you deserve to be treated with respect
Trust your instincts – if you feel uncomfortable than this is probably not a healthy relationship
Talk to someone – find someone you can trust – a family member, friend, co-worker, EAP, supervisor, spiritual leader, community advisor or health professional. Call the Distress Centre and they can help make the appropriate referral. These resources can help you to examine all of your options so that you can decide what is best for you.
