Everybody deserves to be in a healthy relationship free from violence and abuse. If you suspect that you or someone you know is being abused, call the confidential 24/7 provincial toll-free crisis line at 1-877-977-0007 to discuss options and get info about services available.
Domestic violence isn't just physical - it's any pattern of behavior used to gain control over a partner or other household member.
As #DomesticViolenceAwarenessMonth comes to a close, we're outlining some subtle signs of domestic violence you might not have been aware of 🧵
5️⃣ Blaming. Does your partner blame you for how they feel or act? Saying their partner "made them" abuse exerts control by making someone feel responsible for their own abuse. #DomesticViolence

I’m in tears. I’ll be honest, our conversation took me back to times and places in my life I’ve long shut away… like telling another person’s story. And yet, the sharing is so much a part of my healing journey; to feel seen, known, less afraid.
