Which of the following signs can help you notice that the person is about to be physically abusive yet again?
1 of 5
A person, who is about to get physically abusive with you, always shows signs before they start. There are times when that might not happen, but even a single second of behavioral change or change in tone should help you understand that the person is about to get aggressive. They might stare at you with anger or clench their fists. Always stay alert and ready to defend yourself if it gets worse.
Do not consult your friends or family after the abuse or the fight:
2 of 5
You should definitely go and consult your friends or family after the abuse since they may help in offering you help or guidance in case you are not in the right state of mind. Always keep a presence of mind and make sure that your mind is in a state to make the right decision without any influence.
Knowing about which of the following traits of the abuser can help you deal with physical abuse?
3 of 5
Physical abusers always consider themselves superior to the person they are physically harming. They might assume that they are in control of your life, however; it is best to understand the patterns and be aware of the way their mind works. In some cases, insecurities can be the reason of a physical abuse. Living with a physically abusive person can be traumatic. So, be alert as it can help you fight for yourself.
You are at risk if you decide to abandon or leave the abuser
4 of 5
It is right that it is highly risky for you to leave or abandon the abuser but sooner you take the decision the better. You can try and talk to them or even try and fix the relationship. But truth be told, people with an abusive nature do not change. However, if they are not willing to listen, try consoling and calming them, so that even if you have to leave them, you are not in danger. At times you may need to leave the person and get away if things get out of hand so, do not be afraid of doing so.
Which of the following self-help strategies can help you deal with such a person?
5 of 5
You need to make sure that you take your own solid stand so that the abuser knows how confident and not afraid you are. If you keep quiet and show them that you are weak, they grab the opportunity to be dominant yet again and physically hit you. Even if you try to take a stand, make sure that you are not aggressive and behaving exactly as they are. This can make them retaliate even more by hurting their ego.
