Domestic & Family Violence
The behaviours of a person who uses domestic and family violence vary, and stem from a need to exert power and control, instilling fear in the other. If you experience violence you are never to blame and violence in any form from an intimate partner, family member or carer is unacceptable.
The signs of abuse are not always obvious. No one else may know you’re experiencing abuse. You may feel like it’s your fault (it’s not) or that it’s normal (it’s not). Nothing you say or do makes it OK for someone to abuse you. If someone is making you feel unsafe, is trying to control or manipulate you, or is harming you in any way – that’s abuse. It’s OK to talk about it with someone and ask for help. You deserve to be respected and to feel safe, always.
If you don’t feel safe, please reach out. There are people who can help you – just check our wellbeing resource page.
