What is Financial Abuse?
What is Abuse in general?
What are the long-term effects of marital Abuse?
How it affects self-worth?
This is a Conversation is with Clinical Psychologist Afiya M Shafi from Iqraa Hospital, Calicut. We delve deep into the effects of Toxic relationships and how abuse affects the self-worth and mental health of the individuals involved. Dowry System, Patriarchy all contribute to Abuse in families. The reasons for abuse could be many, it might be a result of an addiction or mental health disorders. In many cases Divorce is not an option, so the abuse continues for several years especially when the victim of abuse is financially dependent on their partner. Domestic Violence also happens especially as a result of alcoholism and these cases go un-reported due to societal pressure.
The Mental Health Awareness Series is being made with the objective of spreading awareness about these various subjects and should never be seen as a replacement for actual therapy or consultation. Should there be any kind of issue in your marriage request you to pls seek a mental health professional, a therapist or a psychologist or a clinical psychologist.

Absolutely..we tend to avoid addressing these issues to keep peace

[@abhadcruz9503]

This was a need of the hour topic. Understanding the types of emotional abuse is so crucial to ensure that you do not normalize it in a relationship. Feel it is as important as educating children about good touch/bad touch. The analogy of drop of water leading to drowning effect was spot on. Thank you Dhanya and Afiya for this deep conversation ❤

[@iamwithdhanyavarma]

Absolutely..emotional abuse is the most untouched upon...simply because the one one who abuses doesn't realise his/her mental health issue and seek therapy..the victim often is in the trauma bond...pls watch next part

[@renjur5283]

Well spoken, Afiya. Good if you could include ways to have healthy conversations with family members about these topics, or how to make them understand

[@nandinimenon8855]

One point i would like to highlight adding on to this is, Marriage as a structure itself is flawed with a hierarchial strtucture which inturn provides the opportunity to the person on the top to abuse the person down. Restructuring is very important with 2 independent adults has to decide mutually to enter into a life contract so automatically abuse will start to disappear, as mutual respect is what holds them together. Thanks

[@iamwithdhanyavarma]

Thank you Danya for bringing relevant topic. One small suggestion is focus more for women. Will be more interesting if the conversation is with equality. Only my thought. This interview is an eye opener for many.

[@iamwithdhanyavarma]

Thanks so much for your feedback..will keep that in mind...in this conversation we mention women more because they are at the receiving end of the social economic inequalities ..so are more prone to abuse

Nice video👍🥰

[@deeps318]

I wish everyone understands this equally and act upon. At least it’s good that we are escalating these topics nowadays as its an eye opener for many. But still it’s very difficult to implement it in this patriarchal society. For example, I lives in Europe where I say it’s equal responsibility for partners to take care of the family but my husband and inlaws insist that we are keralites and we have to follow the societal norms. In their views, women should be always doing the household chores and looking after children and inlaws and husband.; which is not practical and is a ridiculous thought. And it’s not easy to escape from this loop.

[@iamwithdhanyavarma]

Pls take care...

[@tata_mic4539]

[@heartyrhythms2224]

Hi Dhanya,I saw a repetitive pattern that we are always talking about the problems of women...Can you do an episode on the mental traumas and emotional stress faced by men due to toxic partnership.That is also relevant know..they are also facing many difficulties ❤

[@miladmy]

Abuse and blame are not issues exclusive to women; men are also affected. It’s not a matter of gender-specific character traits-it applies to women as well.

[@iamwithdhanyavarma]

Agreed..but in an inequal society mostly women face it.We discuss this in the conversation too

[@user-yk5lv8iw8x]

There’s no comparison when you look at the statistics.

[@miladmy]

@@user-yk5lv8iw8x I don't have statistics or specific data to refer to, but based on my personal experiences and those of the people around me, I strongly believe that both genders are equally impacted. No one in this world is perfect; everyone has emotions and feelings. A partner, whether male or female, should share responsibilities equally and strive to be a supportive companion rather than acting selfishly. Ultimately, it often comes down to the environment in which a person was raised. I’m not defending anyone, but after watching this video, I got the impression that it portrays men as the sole cause of problems, with women always being the ones who suffer-and I don't entirely agree with that.

[@user-yk5lv8iw8x]

@ In a country that’s grappling with women safety issues- it’s very unproductive if you keep doing this whataboutery. If you see injustice around you- go on and share your story or those with similar experiences as you on a different forum. Please don’t dilute discussions like these! In the World Gender Gap index - India is ranked 135th out of 146 countries as of 2022. So please 🙏 Let people have these conversations.

[@miladmy]

@@user-yk5lv8iw8x Here, I am specifically addressing domestic abuse, not the broader issues of women’s safety, as that’s beyond my scope to control or comment on. From my perspective, domestic abuse doesn’t affect only women-men are also impacted. However, I do agree that the proportion is likely higher for women compared to men. As I mentioned earlier, I’m not defending anyone or trying to divert attention from the message of this video. I’m simply sharing my opinion based on what I know and have observed. That’s all!

Dhanya Im wondering why is all discussion on abuse and violence about women alone. Isnt there space for men to open up and talk about their issues? No psychologist talk about that.

[@iamwithdhanyavarma]

We mention that in the conversation...pls watch..applies to both genders but more prevalent against women because of social economic n gender inequalities
