Lord, how are they increased that trouble me! many are they that rise up against me.
Many there be which say of my soul, There is no help for him in God. Selah.
But thou, O LORD, art a shield for me; my glory, and the lifter up of mine head.
I cried unto the LORD with my voice, and he heard me out of his holy hill. Selah.
Psalm 3:1-4

    Power & Control Wheel


    This was a graphic that I was given in handout form when I arrived at the shelter.

    Not only was it revealing... it proved validating. Many things that the abused woman endures fits under a few "categories" at once. All are detrimental to her physical and emotional wellbeing.

    Physical and sexual abuse tie everything in a tight little bundle.

    This is the power and control wheel. It is a simplistic visual representation of what life was like at home for me... and what life is like for countless other women.

    If you or someone you know is being abused, it is serious.

    Don't wait as long as I did to get help.

    Things only deteriorate further.

    They do not improve.

    I guess I didn't realize just how abused I was as a child.....
    This is very revealing.
