Abuse is when the way others treat you becomes harmful to you. Abuse can take many forms, including emotional, physical or sexual. Therapy can help you address how this has made you feel and work through your feelings so you feel better about yourself.

Understanding abuse can be complicated, realising that you are being abused or even being the abuser isn’t always clear to see.
Being a victim or perpetrator of abuse can be what is “normal” to you and therefore accepted as “ok” , but it’s NOT “ok” to accept or give abuse, regardless of who it involves (a partner, family member, friend, boss etc) or the reason(s) behind it (stress, health, alcohol, pressure etc).
Talking about these matters can help you see that, and in turn help you realise what is acceptable behaviour and make the positive changes in your life that maybe required.
