In this video, we’re diving deep into the Power and Control Wheel, a tool widely used to understand the dynamics of abusive relationships. The Power and Control Wheel outlines various tactics abusers use to gain and maintain control over their partners, beyond physical violence. By breaking down each section of the wheel, we’ll explore real-life examples of behaviors like isolation, intimidation, emotional abuse, and manipulation.
Examples covered include:
Intimidation: How abusers use fear to establish control, such as destroying belongings or displaying threatening behavior.
Emotional Abuse: Recognizing tactics like name-calling, humiliation, and manipulation that damage self-worth.
Isolation: How abusers limit contact with friends or family, cutting off support systems.
Minimizing, Denying, and Blaming: Exploring how abusers refuse to take responsibility and shift blame to their partners.
By understanding these patterns, you’ll gain insight into identifying and challenging abusive behaviors. Whether you’re in a relationship, know someone who might be, or just want to understand more about how control dynamics work, this breakdown offers important awareness and tools for empowerment. Watch to gain a deeper understanding of the subtle and overt tactics abusers use, and to learn how to reclaim control over your own life.
