The Verbally Abusive Relationship: How to Recognize it and How to Respond

Rating: 4.0/5 Stars
Rank: 582
Are you now, or have you ever been, in relationships with family, friends,
or mates who have been verbally abusive?
Is your happiness with someone
you love continually threatened by interactions that continually
undermine your self-esteem?
Do you feel trapped in a relationship that
keeps decaying in a downward spiral of overt or passive-aggressive abuse?
If so, this book could be your life raft, either carrying you toward
repair of the existing relationship or the effects of past relationships
or offering liberation from your current confusion.
Its practical approach
can help clear your head and possibly change your life. The only criticism
that I and other readers have is that the author assumes verbal abuse is
almost always directed by males toward females, which, in my
experience and that of others I know, is not necessarily the case.
Highly
Recommended.
