Hi, sweetie and you are SO welcome!

I presented my paper, Societys Hidden Pandemic, Verbal Abuse,Precursor to Physical Violence and a Form of Biochemical Assault at the Michigan Counseling Association. If you would like a copy, i would be happy to send it.

Another excellent resource is Boundaries by Townsend and Cloud.

Hugs and Love, Nicole

QUOTE=Big Mama;4483369]Thank You Nichole. I forgot to mention the book I am reading. The Verbally Abusive Relationship, how about that. It sounds like it is making a huge impact on my life just like it did yours.

You are so right, I need to STOP explaining myself, that just feeds into his power. And another thing, you are right, I will make me crazy trying to understand HIS insanity.

Exactly Abuse is brainwashing, that is why it is so confusing.

Thank you so much for taking the time to respond. It means so much to me that I am worth someones time. Thank you again for all your insight.[/QUOTE]
