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

Up on Cloud 9 - Domestic Violence Survivor

Looking back, I see I was trying to change my abusive husband. I am thankful I made it away safely, leaving the violent relationship behind. I see now I was trying to change my abusive husband, motivated by a strong desire to help, and understandably reluctant to accept failure on the marriage vows taken.
