Answer:
Typically, people who are put down in verbally abusive relationships think that somehow, in some way their being treated like that has something to do with them. They have the impression that there is something about themselves that makes their loved one mad at them, apprehensive of them, distant toward them, fed up with them, unbelieving of them, or disdainful of them.
Since verbally abusive relationships have been ignored by our culture for thousands of years and since there are so many forms of verbal abuse – from the most subtle to the most direct – it is not easy for people in abusive relationships to understand what is going on. For this reason, I have written a book that thousands of people say helps them more than anything else they’ve read to recognize verbal abuse right when it’s happening.
Conversely, people who frequently indulge in verbal abuse may have little if any conscious awareness of what they are doing. This idea may seem strange to people looking in on an abusive relationship. But many people have told me that they were frequently abusive and never thought anything about their behavior.
