What to do?

I’m a victim

Do not find excuse for his behavior. Nothing justifies the use of violence. It’s not the norm.

Talk about it! This will help provide adequate support for you as well as for him.

Listen, without judgment!

Believe what she tells you.

Ask her how you can help her.

Encourage the person to learn about specialized resources that could provide help. It’s important to break the silence and the isolation.

Don’t hesitate to get support yourself. Being well equipped will help you cope with the situation appropriately.

Report the situation.
