First of all, what is emotional abuse? It is in the most basic definition is anything that hurts the feeling of another person. We definitely have as human beings hurt someone's feelings on purpose, but there is a difference between this and an emotionally abusive relationship. In an emotionally abusive relationship, the other controls you by undermining your confidence, making you feel crazy, and manipulating you with fear or shame. There are many ways in which emotional abuse can be more effective in messing you up than physical abuse. There are some reasons to this. One of the reasons emotional abuse kicks your butt more is it can happen every single day of your life. The more it happens, the more you can feel the pain. Emotional abuse can also dig deeper than the normal punches. First of all, punches or kicks can obviously be seen that it is their fault for hurting you. Emotional abuse makes you blame yourself! Implying or saying you some kind of problems suggests there is something wrong with you. It makes you question something unnecessary and makes you think your at fault. It takes abuse to whole new level of damage.
