    If you were verbally abused by someone in your family, how would you deal? Please help if you can!

    Hey verbal is just as bad as physical soemtimes even worse i dealt with both forms growing up.Best thing for u to do is just ignore it and to not believe it and let it bring u down.Just focus on something else and block it out its hard at 1st but it helps if u learn to phase it out.I wish the best of luck and hope it stops.

    yes i am verbally abused as well as physical but to tell you the truth....i dont deal. i hold it in and it gets to me but i just suck it all up like i dont care when really i do.

    I think one of the best ways to deal, is just this...to write poetry about it. It helps express what you are feeling and I know it makes ME feel better. Plus, there are people who can read it and identify with you. Just know that you are not alone. :-)

    I write poetry to help me. It's a good way. But, it hurts. It's amazing how much words could hurt someone. But, yeah i've cut and cried as well. But, I keep my head up. It's just tough.

    I was never verbally abused growing up, i came from a good family...Very broken but good...However, my teenage years were not the best verbal abuse came at that time...the way i dealt with it and still do is i use it for motication....people who doubt me...i prove them wrong. people who say i cant..and never will...i do and always will...lol..
    its a sense of motivation for me!!

    I also write poetry to relieve the pain of physical and verbal abuse. But it never really helps in the long run. My father did what he did and he's going to have to pay the price of his family not wanting to be with him anymore... are these feelings wrong? Like, i almost cant wait to get my dad back for what he does to my older brother, mom and me...

    FZA,

    I have tried talking to him about it. He said if he says something that I don't agree with, like lets say he said I was a Dumba** or a worthless Piece of S*it, that I should tell him that I don't agree. It was a bunch of lies! Everyti,me I try to do the things he suggested I get yelled at even more.
