04. Domestic Violence - Going Through It & Growing Up In It

  • Summary

  • * Please share this episode to as many people as you can. You can save lives!

    Sasha shared her traumatic experience of going through domestic violence for an entire year without telling family or friends. She also shared how she went through therapy afterwards to deal with her traumas and fear.

    I shared my story growing up as a kid in a family with a lot of violence, in a culture that domestic violence is common (which is absolutely not okay). I also shared my experience and point of view for spotting and sensing a case of physical abuse.

    Domestic violence, any form of physical or mental abuse is NOT okay. It's one of the most horrible way to release anger or frustration, dealing with conflict. Being physically hurt is such a horrible thing for any human being in general, but being physically hurt by someone you love and (you think that) loves you back is another level.

    GET OUT of the situation if you're currently going through it. SPEAK UP! ASK FOR HELP! Staying in the relationship is not going to be any good for you or your children. Money, house, or anything is not worth sacrificing your own mental health and your children's entire childhood's happiness. 

    If you suspect or can sense any of your family, friends or even strangers going through violence, ASK THEM if they're okay. You can save that person's life, and save their kids childhood!
