What it’s like for a DV victim to come forward: fight harder than they ever thought imaginable to get “justice”, to even be believed regardless of strong evidence or not, suffer through entire process, all while living in fear of abuser and/or enablers’ reaction.
Thinking of everyone in this community today. There is love and support for you here if you need it.

Thinking of all those women treading on eggshells; not knowing what will happen this Christmas.

Lawyers will use any tactic including lying & inventing new medical theories & expertise to defend a client. There are literally zero consequences for the falsehoods they employ to convince the jury sexual assault victims are lying.

I don't do xmas. It is a major trauma anniversary due to family violence. My family is not safe. I try to manage as best I can at this time of year. Usually turn off social media & binge watch a TV show. Thinking of others whom have had a similar experience and wishing them well.

In a relationship if you fear asking for what you need & want your consent has been breeched & you are making decisions out of self protection from abuse.

Sending solidarity to those having a tough time this Christmas.

❗️@DeptofDefense @ArmyChaplains you have GOT to stop telling couples with abuse issues to sit down together for couples counseling! It is NOT how to address physical (or any other) abuse❗️#militaryfamilyadvocacyprogramisbroken
Pastors: please hear me. Do NOT recommend couples counseling to women who share with you they are experiencing any kind of abuse (physical, emotional, spiritual, etc.) This is not a marital issue, but an abuse issue. They both need individual therapy separately. #domesticviolence

Believing a survivor is not the greatest gift you can give them - your belief they are not lying about being hurt is not a ‘gift’ it’s a basic human right. Belief should be a given. What they need is safety and for us to stand up for them and defend them.

Healthy relationships involve honesty, trust, respect and open communication between partners and they take effort and compromise from both people.
There is no imbalance of power. Partners respect each other's independence, can make their own decisions without fear of retributi

This 👇
Silence only protects perpetrators.
Remember that next time you question is speaking publicly is the 'right' thing to do. Who's interests do you serve? Only those abusing their power.
