How to Coach Yourself and Others Beware of Manipulation | Page 78

•Setting guidelines for what you need in a relationship is not the same as threatening someone so never feel as though you are acting like the abuser; you are trying to make a positive change. •Give yourself time before you get into situations that may remind you of that abusive relationship or even trying to get into another relationship. • Remember that there is always a support group, a friend or a family member that appreciates you. •Seek professional help. •As much as possible try and ensure the process never repeats itself. Please Note: Emotional abuse is not acceptable and should not be tolerated whether the victim is male or female. Every person has the right to live a life free from abuse..
