The Severe Consequences of Domestic Violence


    There are three main types of consequences in Domestic Violence. First, there are physical harms which consist in any injury produced on the victim´s body. According to the Centers for Disease Control, the statistics said: “Around the world at least one woman in every three has been beaten, coerced into sex, or otherwise, abused in her lifetime. Most often the abuser is a member of her own family”. “One study estimated that more than 3% of women were severely assaulted by male partners or cohabitants over the curse of the year”. (“C.J. Newton, M.A.”) The second consequence is the social effect; this may be a misperception on society from the side of the person assaulted. This might produce that the victim becomes a shrinking violet person, so this person will be rejected by the society. As the third point, physiological effects are the most frequent ones, and they will leave a sign on the victim´s live. According to Dr. Luis Echegaray, “The main physiological effects are: fear, anxiety, fatigue, stress disorders and post-traumatic effects”. In conclusion these three phenomena produce severe consequences on victim´s future. 







Here we have a test that would help to all these persons that believe that they are suffering domestic violence to probe their reality.
