Retweeting my Non Physical Domestic Violence Power And Control Wheel to keep this in the forefront. You do NOT HAVE TO SUFFER PHYSICAL VIOLENCE to be living in severe domestic violence #itsnonphysicaldomesticviolence #NPDV

Zach should’ve picked Gaby all day long. She’s the real woman with the a heart and soul, and all it takes to make it in a marriage. I know as a woman who has lived in psychological violence in two marriages. #TeamGabi #TheBachelor

I’ve once again hit I’ve got no one stage of this rollercoaster. I thought it wouldn’t hit this curve again. But it does. Again and again. I HATE how my life has changed. My brain. My abilities to function. #betrayaltrauma

@ByYrSide I’m going to assume you are a man. It’s people like you who make the world landscape all the more dangerous for victims. Your responses are unintelligible, and do not refer to any of the “terms” on my website.

[Angie Cushwa @4ivehope]

@ByYrSide This concept was not accepted or known when I started doing my work; I know firsthand I’ve lived the hell of non-physical domestic violence. I am an expert in this field. I don’t think you really looked at my website. If you did, clearly you spent very little time looking at it

[Angie Cushwa @4ivehope]

@ByYrSide My work was featured at the 2017 National conference on health and domestic violence. Termanology is always evolving and changing. I suggest you go to the https://t.co/i0CleNUy5T which is the national hotline for people in a domestic violence trouble/crisis.

[Angie Cushwa @4ivehope]

@ByYrSide I don’t know what you’re talking about. I am a well, respected, domestic violence activist respected completely by professional licensed therapists,as well as domestic violence, survivors, and advocates, who have their own domestic violence organizations.

[Angie Cushwa @4ivehope]

@ByYrSide @BotForEquality I introduced the term in 2016 bc its must be redefined. It's not an dictionary or google found definition. If you truly want to understand go to my website. https://t.co/Kd8piKL2d0

[Angie Cushwa @4ivehope]

I created #WhatIsNonPhysicalDomesticViolence in 2016 bc it was NOT understood- you don't have to suffer physical violence to suffer severe DV.
NOW, this is widely understood.
Today I created #ItsNonPhysicalDomesticViolence #ItsNPDV so others can tweet about it similar to #MeToo

[Angie Cushwa @4ivehope]

@ByYrSide @BotForEquality 1st, the word abuse is weak and waters down violence, which creates so much damage it changes the victim. 2nd, there must be a differentiation between physical violence and non-physical violence, they are two very different forms. See https://t.co/Kd8piKKuns

It's #NonPhysicalDomesticViolence #NPDV

[ANA - AfterNarcissisticAbuse @Light_Life_Love]

When the person who harmed you won't own it, it just compiles the hurt. Those who betray you: rationalize, minimize, justify, blame and deny to avoid responsibility. It sends the message that you truly did have ZERO Value in their eyes. #NarcissisticAbuse

Don’t expect an apology from a toxic personality. Narcissistic and antisocial personalities will deny. They will likely blame you. They will lie, manipulate, intimidate, minimize and control.

This Power and Control Wheel outlines the abuse.

Gray Matter: Neuroscience reveals why abuse victims can’t just walk away. This article says it pretty well; There is a chemical balance caused in the brain from abuse and violence. #WhatIsNonPhysicalDomsticViolence #NPDV https://t.co/zVMS2H50wA
