Get help to fight domestic violence

Domestic violence is a deep-rooted problem. However most of the victims continue to remain silent and suffer physically religiously financially emotionally or mentally. People tend to overlook excuse and even deny the problem outright. They are under the illusion that their spouse would realize their mistake and things would be normal again.

However being afraid of the person with whom you live is not the solution. Getting over or out of a violent relationship has not only helped the suffering spouse but also the kids who undergo a lot of trauma due to domestic violence acts.

Hoping that situation will improve by its own is superficial. Often there is a fear of the partners’ reactions if they became aware that one is seeking help or trying to leave. The situation itself is traumatic and such individuals find themselves trapped in hopelessness.
