What Can I Do?

What Can I Do? is written to address the very secret of domestic violence and how it has thrived behind locked doors, never being discussed or admitted to - even with your closest friends. The most important message I have is that you need not face this alone anymore. Knowledge and understanding of your situation is power and this power gives you the strength to take control back into your life once again.To do this, I discuss the very definition of domestic violence and abuse, and the terminology for what is happening. For example, understanding how Gaslighting and Hoovering have insipidly seeped into your life. Identifying Narcissistic Personality Disorders and how they affect you; they're more common than you think. Learning to cope with PTSD and then going on to create a safe environment by utilising the Safety Plan. And finally, the importance of counselling and reaching out to friends and family.What Can I Do? will help you make plans to become self-confident, teach you how to apply coping mechanisms and with the help of instructive planning, become more aware of what is happening to you and how better to prepare yourself. This is your future that ultimately survives past domestic violence and abuse.
