b'This is for anyone has a person in their life who is mistreating them. For example, let\\u2019s say you have an in-law who treats you like a punching bag, or your partner is hurting your feelings on a daily basis, or you have a volatile sibling who speaks to you terribly. It can be really disorienting, especially if you\\u2019ve been taking this for a really long time. Plus, with intimate relationships there\\u2019s often a trade-off that makes this even more complicated: if this relationship also provides you with rent, or your spouse doesn\\u2019t share your hurt perspective \\u2013 you might feel guilty about having the feelings that you have. Caveat: this topic has some overlap with domestic violence but I am not addressing people who are victims of domestic violence. Why? Because in your situation, your physical safety is of primary concern and some of the tools I am offering might threaten that safety. For you I recommend you head to: thehotline.org or google your local domestic violence resource. And know that if you are in a relationship that you have been unable to leave \\u2013 then know that it\\u2019s HARD but it\\u2019s not impossible. I\\u2019ve read that it takes an average of 7 to 8 times to leave \\u2013 so whatever you do, don\\u2019t give up. As with all my episdes, there are three parts \\u2013 the what, why and how the tools. To make a donation and for more of my work, head to YayWithMe.com xo!\\nLearn more about your ad choices.
