Domestic Violence and Domestic Abuse - is not just about physical abuse - it also includes emotional and psychological, coercive control and isolating people.
Most men do not believe or feel they are a victim until sometime after they no longer have control of their life and have become isolated.
One survivor said they felt they were being ‘groomed’.
Remember though, victims are not to blame, they are not weak and they are are not alone.
