Remember that violence is a choice, and it is preventable. Don’t make excuses for friends and peers who are violent. Do not support the notion that violence is caused by mental illness, lack of anger management skills, alcohol and drug use, stress, etc. Violence is a choice, and it is preventable.

Mandla Mthembu
(35 yrs)
from Free State says:
Relationships are complex, and love, affection, and commitment can still be part of relationships despite the violence. Sometimes, these positive elements are the foundation for change. Women and other survivors seek help to reclaim their power, by breaking their isolation to seek support, escape the abuse, and find ways to keep themselves and their children safe. Abusers struggle to change, couples try to restore balance and equality, friends and family step in: these and other struggles strengthen our collective hopes for violence-free lives.

MENTAL HEALTH ISSUES We all know one person who has experienced abuse . Abuse comes in different forms -Physical abuse -Emotional abuse -verbal abuse -financial abuse When a person has experienced abuse, it changes everything about them…they become a different person..some become more reserved, the cover up more, they become sensitive to touch, they apologize even when it’s not necessary. If you have experienced abuse or know someone who has,I want to tell you IT’S NOT YOUR FAULT You may feel depressed, paranoid and anxious after everything...
