Admitting that you are mistreating your partner takes lots of courage. Be honest with yourself if you can recall an instance in which your actions disturbed, embarrassed, harmed, controlled, or coerced someone – whether it was someone you knew or a stranger. It’s the first step towards improving things.
There is often a pattern to the abusive things you do, even if you may have only done some of them once or twice. It will be easier to change your ways and stop being abusive if you become more conscious of your behaviour.
It is possible as long as you accept full responsibility for your behaviour and make a firm commitment to changing.
Below we have mentioned few points which you need to take into consideration;
- Admitting your abusive behaviour. You cannot hold your partner liable for your acts.
- Realising that you can decide not to be aggressive or abusive as well as make that decision
- Accepting your partner’s right to live their life independently, free from dominance and control.
- Seeking help from professionals
