Let's understand mental and psychological abuse.

Abuse generally means using something for a bad effect or a kind of misuse. 

There are different kinds of abuse like physical abuse, emotional abuse, mental abuse, financial abuse, sexual abuse, gendar abuse, marriage abuse etc.  



But for now let's see understand about mental about and psychological abuse. 

1. You will find your partner or spouse calling you  unappropriate names like for example "idiot", "fool", "moron" etc. Not only that they call you in front of your or his friends, relatives and also in public. He/she will never miss a chance to make you embarrassed in front of others. Most worst part in name calling is they will give you a pet name, which is so awful to hear repeatedly. Most of the time will name your weakness or something that you don't like. So everything they call you that it remind them their weakness or something that they really hate. This type of emotional or mental abuse is not only found in relationship but everywhere shool, college, between friends, between colleagues, among relatives. 

2. Another type of emotional /psychological and mental abuse is insulting in the of joke. It is somewhat similar to name calling. Insulting type of jokes happens mainly during any kind of gatherings. Because the one who is abusing want's to be felt superior than the victim. The abusive wants make you feel that you are not a worthy person and imperfect in many ways. 

3. Yelling, screaming, shouting in private or public and their basic motive is to make you feel small and wrong. These kind of people wants to force their ideas or opinions on you. In extreme cases it leads to physical abuse too. 



4. They make you feel you and your matters as unimportant. They treat you as a child. They won't give importance to any of your decision or your opinions. On top of that they will give you orders in each and every small things like for example they will tell you what color you choose for the materials that you buy, what to wear, how much to eat, you can only be friends with those whom your partner approves. In short, they will control you in every possible way. No respect for your goals or ambitions and they constantly demotivates you. 



5. They exhibits a great amount of possessiveness and jealousy. Always questions about your loyalty. They always blame you for the fights and arguments. They don't even care if you are hurt. 

These are fews points in mental and emotional abuse. The one that abuses is clearly has a low self esteem, and a great amount of inferiority complex. Whatever the reason is you don't deserve to be humiliated or abused. If you find yourself abused say a clear "NO". If needed reach out for help.
