Race, Gender, Age, Creed …

ANY Discrimination Feels Exactly Like ABUSE.

I am NOT a Doctor … but I am a grateful survivor of child abuse … and of emotional abuse from someone who was once a very close friend …

The Effects of Injustice, like discrimination ( which, I have also experienced) perfectly replicate the feelings / effects experienced by the victims of abuse …

So, I try to remember this :

Respecting myself, is the best thing i can do for everybody … – including the Abuser …

Removing myself from the abusive person or situation in a safe, or if necessary – confidential – way, with the aid of those who truly care – is essential to healing from abuse …

Contacting a Trustworthy Professional about the Activities of The Abuser … is the next step, taken from a safe distance away from The Abuser …

In My experience …

Emotional abuse is often a silent form of this malignant behaviour …

In My experience …

Some abusers don’t even understand their own behaviour …

However, it is NOT my “lot” in life – to “fix” or “explain” their behaviour …

It is my responsibility to remove myself from the abusive person and or situation.

Sometimes, I found it hard to pin-point exactly when the situation switched from mildly uncomfortable, to abusive …

I notice that sometimes in Political Discourse – the challenge is similar …

I’ve noticed that Malicious, Incessant / Deeply personal Sarcasm ( the root of the word “Sarcasm” means “tearing of the flesh” ) such as the Public Displays of Incessant Negative commentary that “tears people down,” including the Rabid Media Commentary aimed at Liberals and Democrats and Women and LGBTQ Individuals and People of Colour … and Immigrants … and INNOCENT PEOPLE …

and … in personal lives … especially when aimed at young or sensitive people – who feel discomfort with such comments – is not always as “cute” as it may appear … and my lead to an escalation of controlling / other emotionally abusive behaviours …

I LOVE Comedy and Humour – even – Biting / Edgy Humour … which have NOTHING TO do with the Malicious form of Controlling Sarcasm I have noticed that some abusive individuals enjoy as a “gateway” to other behaviours …

There is TONS of info online … and TONS help in the world from qualified resources …

Every step of the way – it’s up to us to say NO to abuse of any kind … whether it happens to us directly … or to our brothers and sisters …

The Abuser seeks to tear my Spirit Down …

The Abuser seeks to terrorize me toward Retreat …

Discrimination feels the same … Discrimination IS ABUSE.
