What is Abuse?
Abuse is a harmful pattern of behavior where a person is hurt physically, emotionally, verbally, or psychologically by someone else. It can affect your thoughts, emotions, confidence, and overall well-being. It is more than just occasional conflict or disagreement. When abuse continues over time, it can deeply impact your sense of safety, self-worth, and daily life.
In Kerala, people may describe it as “prashnam at home,” “toxic relationship,” or “mental torture,” but it is a serious and recognized issue, not something to ignore or tolerate. Abuse can happen in relationships, families, workplaces, or social settings. The good news is that with the right support and therapy, healing, recovery, and rebuilding a sense of safety is possible.
