Domestic Violence- Up on Cloud 9

If you are a victim of domestic violence - please consider adding this number The National Domestic Violence Hotline (www.thehotline.org) 1.800.799.7233.  into your cell phone. This group or agency can assist you in making a plan for protection and they offer confidential help 24 hours  a day.  Also, I found the website www.mosaicmethod.com helpful in giving an assessment of factors experts associate with violence and danger. The report helps  the victim become more aware of factors that can end in an episode of violence. Remember, computer usage can be monitored-so use a safe computer. I wish you the best. God Bless, Dr. Baxter

Educate and learn what reliable pre-incident indicators associated with spousal violence and murder are. They will not be present in every case but if a situation has several of these signals-there is reason for concern.

Domestic Violence is Criminal

Stop Domestic Violence _ As Time Goes on -it only gets worse. Protect yourself and others-get out of those relationships that are demeaning and negative. Love should build one up - not constantly tear it down. I know I have been there - with a spouse who constantly found fault and demoralized my ever action. Please don't think violent abuse will go away-verbal or physical-it breaks one spirit. God bless and please do not ever give up-life is journey and the best is yet to come. Always Dream! Plan for the Future! Laugh, Laugh and laugh more. Dr. Baxter

Domestic Violence breaks down the spirit . . . .

DOMESTIC VIOLENCE is cruel as well as criminal. Domestic Violence is not a temporary loss of temper. It is not about a partner's anger-it is about People who when trying to gain power or seeking control in a relationship act in ways that are not appropriate,  illegal, or often dangerous. Being hit or slapped is never minor. If you are a victim of abuse-don't give up. Always believe in yourself and find things that make you happy. Create your own dreams and follow them until they are a reality. Stay safe and remember the best is yet to come. God Bless, Dr. Baxter

Victim RIghts - We must do more!

                       Being the Victim This domestic violence I have faced the past couple years is damanging beyond words.  Domestic violence is criminal and women are the most often affected by verbal, physical, and mental abuse. The victim should never have to face the individual who caused so much violence and pain. Victims do not cause this behavior or conduct (my ex always blames me as the culprit) of violence and we need to do more to help women troubled by a broken spirit of the heart, mind and soul. It is so hard to explain how it damaging it is to overall health in general, simply because this problem attacks on all levels-mind,heart and soul. Being hit or slapped is never a minor thing and being intimidated or coerced is not part of love. The verbal abuse seems to hurt most to me because it is like you keep hearing it over and over. Prayer has help...
