๐ Power and control can be hard to recogniseโespecially when it doesnโt look like physical violence.
It might feel like youโre walking on eggshells, sound like โyou made me do it,โ or look like someone checking your phone, controlling who you see or pressuring you into things you donโt want to do.
Healthy relationships should feel safe, equal and respectful. You have the right to set boundaries, say no and spend time with the people you care about.
If anything in this resource feels familiar, please speak with someone you trust or reach out for support:
