MFT Safeguarding

Don't ever assume that you won't be abused. Even if you've seen it as a child or seen a friend or family member go through it. You've probably said to yourself ill never be in that situation #DomesticAbuse is complex. It can take so many forms. For some it can happen slowly and surely it lulls us into a false sense of security that these are good people. It can take many so long to realise they've been manipulated, controlled, coerced, financially abused, sexually abused, gaslit. A number will blame their mental health as the perpetrator will always use DARVO. It can take people years to realise and walk away. Never think it won't happen to you
