Domestic Violence

“She/he made me do it!”

WRONG. No one makes us do anything. On the contrary; problems arise when we do not make ourselves do the right thing and control our impulses and behavior. It is up to us and no one else to determine how we will behave. Problems arise when we lose control and become violent. If you have lost control and things escalated, you are not alone. Domestic Violence is a global issue that, believe it or not, affects millions of families. The real misfortune happens when we fail to address our issues and let them continue. We believe it to be of the utmost importance to understand that domestic violence cannot be blamed on your partner for provoking or abusing you. Both partners in the domestically violent relationship can be blamed for not taking action to either seek help or leave the relationship. There is NOT ONE good reason for violence in a relationship and HUNDREDS of reasons to avoid it. Maybe its time to reconsider what it is exactly that you want in your relationship. We understand that this is a difficult time for you and we want to offer you a place where no one is going to judge you or take sides; a place where you can take some time to evaluate your situation. The best thing you can do for yourself and your partner is to take responsibility for your portion of any issues and work toward a healthy future by gaining healthier coping skills. However things work out with your relationship, taking the first steps towards breaking the cycles of violence will prove in the long run to be a good and sound decision for everyone.
