Amazon.com Books: emotional abuse
Conventional wisdom says that women are the manipulative ones - but tell that to the thousands of desperate women suffering at the hands of a manipulative man. Men can be just as sneaky, passive-aggressive, needy, underhanded, whiny, guilt-inducing and emotionally demanding as women are accused of being - and perhaps more so! As any woman in love with a manipulative man can tell you, it's not easy to get past his charm and your guilt to a place where you can see your relationship for what it is - out of balance, extraordinarily stressful, emotionally exhausting and potentially dangerous. This book is a groundbreaking prescription for dealing with the manipulative men in your life by using: tests to help women decide if they are involved with mama's boys, narcissists, sociopaths or even psychopaths; techniques for defining and setting boundaries with their men; and tools to help women improve their relationships with manipulative men. In "The Manipulative Man", acclaimed psychotherapist Dr. Dorothy McCoy shows readers how to identify the type of manipulative man they're involved with, deal with the issues his behaviour provokes and ultimately, salvage the relationship - or move on.Author: Dorothy Mccoy Paperback: 256 pages Company: Adams Media (2006-05-08) ISBN: 1593376235 List Price: $14.95 Amazon Price: $9.60 Used Price: $7.17
The subject is emotional abuse—the ongoing process whereby one person attempts to destroy the will, needs, desires, or perceptions of another. The object is the well-educated, high-functioning professional woman.Dr. Joan Lachkar examines the origins and early warning signs of the psychological violation she describes as a dance between abuser and abused. She goes on to introduce typologies of each (the narcissistic or passive-aggressive abuser, the unentitled self) and to explore the bases for their collusive attachments. Addressing therapeutic functions like empathy, containment, and countertransference, and following a couple's evolution from a state of fusion through transitional two-ness to emerging separateness, dependent and interdependent, Dr. Lachkar applies her psychodynamic approach to treatment, informed by object relations and self psychology, and complete with guidelines for technique and practical suggestions for the couple.

When most people hear the word “abuse,” they naturally conjure up images of broken bones, black eyes, and bruises. But in truth, physical violence comprises the vast minority of abusive behaviors in any relationship. The overwhelming types of abuses are those that are difficult to recognize: verbal, emotional, psychological, financial, and spiritual. Because no outward signs of mistreatment exist, these types of abuses usually go unnoticed, especially by the woman experiencing them. In particular, abusive comments often lead a woman in any unhealthy relationship to distrust her own reality and good sense. But He Never Hit Me: The Devastating Cost of Non-Physical Abuse to Girls and Women exposes the truth about these destructive behaviors and also reveals the red flags of a potentially abusive relationship. Women can explore their own background information to understand what led them to these men, the shocking costs that non-physically threatening relationships have on every part of their life, and ways in which they can make changes toward a more positive, healthy, and rewarding future. Imperative for women of all ages, from teens through senior citizens, But He Never Hit Me joins and aligns a large and supportive community of women dedicated to healthy, rewarding relationships.

Children have been abused and neglect nearly as long as man has inhabited earth. History reveals how the Sumerians, five thousand years ago, had a man in charge of the whip to punish boys who stepped out of line. It was common for the ancient Greek philosophers to have sex with their young male students. The Spartans abandoned their weak and deformed children on hillsides or threw them into a deep canyon. In China and India, children were cast into rivers as offerings to water gods to bring good harvests. For most of history, children have been abandoned, beaten, sacrificed, sold, used in sex, murdered, even eaten. Very little was done to protect them.In 1875, the case of Mary Ellen began a new era for the rights of children. Her adoptive parents abused and neglected Mary Ellen. Concerned church workers tried to convince local authorities to take legal action against the parents. They next appealed for help to the Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals (SPCA). The SPCA brought Mary Ellen to the attention of the court as a mistreated “animal.” Since the law did protect animals from abuse, the court took Mary Ellen from her adoptive parents. They went to prison. Children had at least reached a status equal to animals. Because of the Mary Ellen case, the New York County Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Children was established. Similar societies began in other American cities. By 1968, all 50 states had enacted some form of law regarding the reporting of child abuse. In 1974, the Child Abuse Prevention and Treatment Act was signed into law, creating the National Center on Child Abuse and Neglect. Nearly 100 years after the case of Mary Ellen, a national approach to the problem of child abuse began. Unfortunately, however, the problem of child abuse and neglect continues. Each year, over one million cases of child abuse and neglected are reported to authorities in the United States. As many as seven children die each day from abuse. About 12 abused children each day suffer brain damage. It is impossible to know exactly how many children suffer from emotional, physical or mental handicaps resulting from abuse and neglect. What can we do about this national tragedy? How can we save children from further abuse and neglect? One answer is citizen involvement. Concerned citizens saved Mary Ellen. Law enforcement and government agencies cannot do the job alone. They, and the children they protect, need your help. This publication provides information so that you will better understand the problems of child abuse and neglect and know how to help prevent and report it. If you are concerned about child abuse and neglect, get involved. If you need better parenting skills, seek help. If you suspect child abuse and neglect, report it. Your concerned involvement CAN make an important difference in the lives of America’s abused and neglected children. Author: Waln K.

Child Abuse is finally coming into full view of the American public, children are being heard, our stories told, and finally, some one is listening. I wrote this book for every child that has cried out in the darkness and was not heard, for evey child who told and was not beleived. This is my story, my life, these are the hardships I lived and believed normal, normal because no one would listen.I was abused to the point I wanted to kill myself, at the age of nine, I looked up into the heavens and asked God to take me. Here, on these pages was the life of a child abused. This text has not been edited, please forgive typing and poor grammer as these are taken directly from my notes as a child, from the pages of a bible where I hide my existance, the events that I could tell no one else. You may find "there" instead of their", "here" instead of hear. I left these unchanged to note that as an abused child, i didn't have time for grammar, I was too busy trying to stay alive. I was lucky I got out, my baby brother didn't. Author: Arius De Winter Kindle Edition: 320 pages Kindle eBook Company: (2009-02-21) (2009-02-21) List Price: $3.98 Amazon Price:
Does this sound like someone you know? Always needs to be right; Tells you who you are and what you think; Implies that you're wrong or inadequate when you don't agree; Is threatened by people different from him- or herself; Feels attacked when questioned; Doesn't seem to really hear or see you. If any of the traits above sound familiar, help is on the way! In Controlling People, bestselling author Patricia Evans (The Verbally Abusive Relationship) tackles the "controlling personality," and reveals why and how these people try to run other people's lives.

"If you really loved me..." "After all I've done for you..." "How can you be so selfish..." Do any of the above sound familiar? They're all examples of emotional blackmail, a powerful form of manipulation in which people close to us threaten to punish us for not doing what they want. Emotional blackmailers know how much we value our relationships with them. They know our vulnerabilities and our deepest secrets. They are our mothers, our partners, our bosses and coworkers, our friends and our lovers. And no matter how much they care about us, they use this intimate knowledge to give themselves the payoff they want: our compliance. Susan Forward knows what pushes our hot buttons. Just as John Gray illuminates the communications gap between the sexes in Men Are from Mars, Women Are from Venus, and Harriet Lerner describes an intricate dynamic in The Dance of Anger, so Susan Forward presents the anatomy of a relationship damaged by manipulation, and gives readers an arsenal of tools to fight back. In her clear, no-nonsense style, Forward provides powerful, practical strategies for blackmail targets, including checklists, practice scenarios and concrete communications techniques that will strengthen relationships and break the blackmail cycle for good.
DOES YOUR PARTNER . . .* have sudden outbursts of anger or rage? * become jealous without reason? * prevent you from seeing friends and family? * deny you access to family assets such as bank accounts, credit cards, or the car? * control all finances and force you to account for what you spend? * insult you or call you derogatory names? * humiliate you in front of your children? * turn minor incidents into major arguments? If you or someone you know can answer "yes" to the questions above, chances are you are suffering from nonphysical battering--controlling, tyrannical behavior that is just as damaging to a woman's self-esteem as a broken bone or a black eye. An experienced counselor who works with abused women, Mary Susan Miller breaks the silence that surrounds this devastating form of domestic violence. She identifies the many types of nonphysical abuse verbal, emotional, psychological, social, and economic--and explores why this outrageous treatment of women continues unabated in our society. Dr. Miller also shares the stories of many survivors who have escaped their abusive relationships. Their experiences--with law enforcement, the legal system, and the community itself--can help prepare any woman for the decision of whether to stay or leave the relationship. And if she decides to go, Dr. Miller offers sound guidelines on how to protect herself and her children, since a woman's decision to leave is usually the time she is in the most danger from her abuser. Finally, Dr. Miller inspires hope: You can break free of the nightmare of nonphysical battering and heal, once again engaging in a life of integrity, dignity, and peace.

From the earliest years of his marriage, Paul Hegstrom handled his problems and frustrations the only way he knew how: with fists and fury. Talking about the problem only intensified his rage.

With professional help and an intense struggle with spiritual issues, he began the lengthy process of healing and recovery.Through a fascinating, yet thorough examination of the psychological components of various types of abuse, along with true examples from his own life and others, Hegstrom points the way back to wholeness and freedom.

The Box of Daughter is an inspiring true story of the author's journey of healing after five decades of emotional abuse. Her parents were fine, upstanding citizens in a large suburban community, devout church members who volunteered and gave generously of their time, treasure, and talent, and took their frustrations out on their children by bullying them behind closed doors, just as their parents had done to them.Criticized and belittled from an early age, the author became the perfect "Good Little Girl" who always obeyed and tried to give her parents everything they wanted, as she forced her real self into unconscious hiding. Not knowing her family was dysfunctional, she thought she was defective and unlovable. When she was four, she witnessed violence in her family, and became afraid that if she ever disobeyed her parents, she would be killed. As the author grew into adulthood, her parents used her to meet their own emotional needs, a situation that psychologists call "emotional incest." She entered therapy and began to understand that her low self-esteem was the result of the way her parents treated her. In her forties, she acted as caregiver for her parents as they aged, still enduring their abuse and trying her best to make them happy. In the last eight months of her father's life, she lost weight at an alarming rate in spite of eating a normal, healthy diet. No medical cause was ever found, and she was emaciated by the time her father passed away at 93. Free of the abuse at last, she set foot on an exhilarating journey of physical and emotional healing: unearthing her authentic self, expressing her grief and rage, and finally creating a life that is truly her own. The Box of Daughter demonstrates that it is possible to heal the pain of abuse and move on into a more rewarding life.

Everyone thinks Nancy Lewiston Cooper has it all: beauty, intelligence, a loving family, a great husband, and gorgeous children. But her life is not as it appears. In the days before she met her future husband, Nancy finished her college degree and appeared to have a bright future. But when she met and fell in love with Vince, her plans changed. Unfortunately, it wasn’t until her honeymoon that Nancy discovered Vince’s dual personality—cruel and abusive one minute, sweet-as-can-be the next. In the months that follow, Nancy falls into a vicious cycle. To avoid the horrible, abusive confrontations with her husband, she agrees to his lifestyle—drugs, sex, alcohol, and her complete submissiveness. Nancy believes that if she has a baby, her husband’s disposition will improve. But things do not change, even when Nancy becomes pregnant with their second child. Feeling isolated, depressed, and fragile, Nancy struggles to hang onto her sanity. Poignant and inspirational, Private Scars tells the story of one woman’s battle to overcome the emotional and physical trauma of spousal abuse and regain control of her life.

Often excused by parents as `kids will be kids' behaviour, sibling abuse remains largely unrecognized. Symptoms of such abuse and its devastating effects on victims go undetected, victims do not receive appropriate therapeutic intervention, and transgressors do not come to the attention of the courts. The author of this book brings this neglected area `out of the shadows' with personal accounts of adult survivors, insights into why sibling abuse occurs, suggestions for prevention and implications for treatment.
The Right Touch reaches beyond the usual scope of a children's picture book. It is a parenting book that introduces a very difficult topic--the sexual abuse of young children. This gentle, thoughtful story can be read aloud to a child by any trusted caregiver.In the story, young Jimmy's mom explains the difference between touches that are positive and touches that are secret, deceptive or forced. She tells him how to resist inappropriate touching, affirming that abuse is not the child s fault. The introduction provides valuable information about sexual abuse and guidance on what to do if your child experiences an abusive situation. Jody Bergsma's gentle illustrations soften the impact of this story; yet this portrayal of a dangerous situation is very realistic. If your child is old enough to sit still and listen to a story, he or she is old enough for The Right Touch. Used by parents and teachers nationwide to help children avoid sexual abuse, this book won the 1999 Benjamin Franklin Parenting Award. It was a finalist for the Small Press Award and was also "Selected as Outstanding" by the Parent Council, Ltd.

Here is the promise: You will never look at a parent, a child…yourself….the same way after reading “The Unloved”. Using contemporary, multi-disciplinary research, author T. M. Dracos, tells the controversial story of how the human personality is deformed by emotional abuse. The surpassing levels of needless suffering – both physical and mental – that the victims of unlove must endure are documented in meticulous detail in both vignettes, profiles and case studies – people from soul-singer James Brown to JFK – from the ancient Athenians to modern mothers who murder their children. Not only do we come to understand the special pain of the unloved – we learn what the pervasive consequences of abuse are for all of us. “The Unloved” is a book of original insight and understanding – and a call to arms to become conscious of, and then overcome, perhaps the most pernicious human psychological force there is.

Why Is He So Mean to Me? offers a sobering look at verbal and emotional abuse and the confusing, chaotic and debilitating dynamic of the enabler-abuser relationship. It unveils many of the tactics used by the verbal/emotional abuser, the enabler-victim's ever-unsuccessful attempts to understand and earn love from her abuser, and the opposing forces at work within the abusive relationship. Without change, the relationship will continue to spiral toward collapse from the weight of the insanity, or every member of the family will suffer and carry the wounds and behaviors of this devastating lifestyle into the next generation. There is never an excuse for abuse. The enabler must learn the truth, and equip himself or herself in order to make the hard choices necessary for change and restoration. The more you know, the better equipped you will be to reclaim your life.Author: Cindy Burrell Paperback: 238 pages Company: lulu.com (2010-08-19) ISBN: 0557227666 List Price: $14.98 Amazon Price: $14.98

Why Is He So Mean to Me? offers a sobering look at verbal and emotional abuse and the confusing, chaotic and debilitating dynamic of the enabler-abuser relationship. It unveils many of the tactics used by the verbal/emotional abuser, the enabler-victim's ever-unsuccessful attempts to understand and earn love from her abuser, and the opposing forces at work within the abusive relationship. Without change, the relationship will continue to spiral toward collapse from the weight of the insanity, or every member of the family will suffer and carry the wounds and behaviors of this devastating lifestyle into the next generation. There is never an excuse for abuse. The enabler must learn the truth, and equip himself or herself in order to make the hard choices necessary for change and restoration. The more you know, the better equipped you will be to reclaim your life.Author: Cindy Burrell Paperback: 238 pages Company: lulu.com (2010-08-19) ISBN: 0557227666 List Price: $14.98 Amazon Price: $14.98

You can't say that to me! "Can't you do anything right?" "I can't believe you would feed that junk to your child!" "What is this? And don't tell me it's a casserole, I already know that."

Emotional abuse is a separate and distinct form of psychological injury to a child yet there is no consensus among legal and mental health professionals as to its definition. Therefore, having a separate yet contiguous definition facilitates diagnostic accuracy and contributes to better overall treatment modalities. This paper provides a clear and distinct definition for emotional abuse and mental injury in order to facilitate a greater understanding of how to protect children who are psychologically maltreated.Author: Shawn Wygant Kindle Edition: 4 pages Kindle eBook Company: (2009-03-10) (2009-03-10) List Price: $0.99 Amazon Price:
Everyday capable, hardworking, committed employees suffer emotional abuse at their workplace. Some flee from jobs they love, forced out by mean-spirited co-workers, subordinates or superiors -- often with the tacit approval of higher management. The authors, Dr. Noa Davenport, Ruth Distler Schwartz, and Gail Pursell Elliott have written a book for every employee and manager in America. The book deals with what has become a household word in Europe: Mobbing. Mobbing is a "ganging up" by several individuals, to force someone out of the workplace through rumor, innuendo, intimidation, discrediting, and particularly, humiliation. Mobbing is a serious form of nonsexual, nonracial harassment. It has been legally described as status-blind harassment. Mobbing affects the mental and physical health of victims. It extracts staggering costs from victims, their families, and from organizations. With this new book, Mobbing: Emotional Abuse in the American Workplace, there is a name for the problem and help for the victims. The book helps readers to understand what mobbing is, why it occurs, how it affects a victim and organizations, and what people can so. The authors have interviewed victims from across the U.S. and the book contains many quotes that poignantly illustrate the gravity of the mobbing experience. An overview of the literature and research is provided as well as many practical strategies to help the victims, managers, healthcare and legal professionals. Original drawings by Sabra Vidali express the depth of the experience and enhance the authors' work.
Those who have never experienced an abusive or violent relationship often believe that upon finding a way out, victims’ difficulties are solved: their life is good, they are safe, and recovery will be swift. However, survivors know that leaving is not the end of the nightmare -- it is the beginning of an often difficult and challenging journey toward healing and happiness. It’s My Life Now offers readers the practical guidance, emotional reassurance, and psychological awareness that survivors of relationship abuse and domestic violence need to heal and reclaim their lives after leaving their abusers. Since its publication in 2000, It's My Life Now has been highly successful as a working manual for survivors who are starting their lives over after an abusive relationship. This valuable book combines direction on practical and emotional issues with worksheets and self-exploration exercises. Now, in the second edition, Dugan and Hock include updated information and resources while encompassing a wider range of individuals and the relationships in which abuse and violence occur. The new edition also provides a new emphasis on safety assessment, which has increasingly been shown to be a critical factor in recovery. In addition, this new edition includes current resources and information about organizations for victims along with revised and enhanced strategies to help survivors move forward on the path of recovery.

The Box of Daughter is an inspiring true story of the author's journey of healing after five decades of emotional abuse. Her parents were fine, upstanding citizens in a large suburban community, devout church members who volunteered and gave generously of their time, treasure, and talent, and took their frustrations out on their children by bullying them behind closed doors, just as their parents had done to them.Criticized and belittled from an early age, the author became the perfect "Good Little Girl" who always obeyed and tried to give her parents everything they wanted, as she forced her real self into unconscious hiding. Not knowing her family was dysfunctional, she thought she was defective and unlovable. When she was four, she witnessed violence in her family, and became afraid that if she ever disobeyed her parents, she would be killed. As the author grew into adulthood, her parents used her to meet their own emotional needs, a situation that psychologists call "emotional incest." She entered therapy and began to understand that her low self-esteem was the result of the way her parents treated her. In her forties, she acted as caregiver for her parents as they aged, still enduring their abuse and trying her best to make them happy. In the last eight months of her father's life, she lost weight at an alarming rate in spite of eating a normal, healthy diet. No medical cause was ever found, and she was emaciated by the time her father passed away at 93. Free of the abuse at last, she set foot on an exhilarating journey of physical and emotional healing: unearthing her authentic self, expressing her grief and rage, and finally creating a life that is truly her own. The Box of Daughter demonstrates that it is possible to heal the pain of abuse and move on into a more rewarding life.

From the author: This descriptive study investigated the experience of verbal abuse among a voluntary sample of registered pediatric nurses working in six hospitals in Eastern Ontario (N = 35), over a six week period. Roy's Adaptation Model was used as the conceptual framework for this study. A questionnaire was used to ascertain the incidence, source, level of reporting, and personal and professional reactions of verbal abuse in this specific population. Analysis and treatment of data included descriptive statistics and Spearman Correlation tests. Pediatric nurses were the frequent victims of verbal abuse. Patients, parents/visitors, and physicians were equally ranked as the most common perpetrators. There was distinct lack of reporting of verbal abuse. Reasons reported included (a) the incident was not important enough, and (b) the situation was handled/resolved. An increase in stress level and decreased job morale were among the most frequently perceived personal and professional reactions of verbal abuse.

"If you really loved me..." "After all I've done for you..." "How can you be so selfish..." Do any of the above sound familiar? They're all examples of emotional blackmail, a powerful form of manipulation in which people close to us threaten to punish us for not doing what they want. Emotional blackmailers know how much we value our relationships with them. They know our vulnerabilities and our deepest secrets. They are our mothers, our partners, our bosses and coworkers, our friends and our lovers. And no matter how much they care about us, they use this intimate knowledge to give themselves the payoff they want: our compliance. Susan Forward knows what pushes our hot buttons. Just as John Gray illuminates the communications gap between the sexes in Men Are from Mars, Women Are from Venus, and Harriet Lerner describes an intricate dynamic in The Dance of Anger, so Susan Forward presents the anatomy of a relationship damaged by manipulation, and gives readers an arsenal of tools to fight back. In her clear, no-nonsense style, Forward provides powerful, practical strategies for blackmail targets, including checklists, practice scenarios and concrete communications techniques that will strengthen relationships and break the blackmail cycle for good.

DOES YOUR PARTNER . . .* have sudden outbursts of anger or rage? * become jealous without reason? * prevent you from seeing friends and family? * deny you access to family assets such as bank accounts, credit cards, or the car? * control all finances and force you to account for what you spend? * insult you or call you derogatory names? * humiliate you in front of your children? * turn minor incidents into major arguments? If you or someone you know can answer "yes" to the questions above, chances are you are suffering from nonphysical battering--controlling, tyrannical behavior that is just as damaging to a woman's self-esteem as a broken bone or a black eye. An experienced counselor who works with abused women, Mary Susan Miller breaks the silence that surrounds this devastating form of domestic violence. She identifies the many types of nonphysical abuse verbal, emotional, psychological, social, and economic--and explores why this outrageous treatment of women continues unabated in our society. Dr. Miller also shares the stories of many survivors who have escaped their abusive relationships. Their experiences--with law enforcement, the legal system, and the community itself--can help prepare any woman for the decision of whether to stay or leave the relationship. And if she decides to go, Dr. Miller offers sound guidelines on how to protect herself and her children, since a woman's decision to leave is usually the time she is in the most danger from her abuser. Finally, Dr. Miller inspires hope: You can break free of the nightmare of nonphysical battering and heal, once again engaging in a life of integrity, dignity, and peace.

In this must-read book, Evans explores the effects of verbal abuse on parents, teachers, peers, and the abusers themselves. She also reveals how teens learn to be verbally abusive and how this verbal poison can spread into every aspect of teen life: dating, sports, school, and the home.Evans states a powerful case for why every teen, teacher, and parent must comprehend how hurtful words can be, why it is so important to detect this behavior early on, and how to stamp it out before it manifests in teen lives. In an extraordinarily revealing way, she shows teens, parents, and educators how to take a stand against verbal abuse and how to break the "code of silence" -- a kind of verbal abuse "survival insurance" designed by some teens to control other teens!

Teen Torment helps readers learn how to deal with -- and end -- the painful words and ugly talk that can ruin young lives. |
