Lesson Overview

4.21 – Understanding Verbal vs. Emotional Abuse: Verbal abuse uses words to harm, while emotional abuse manipulates feelings to control. Both can leave invisible scars that affect confidence and trust. Constant criticism, humiliation, or guilt are warning signs. Healthy relationships don’t rely on fear or confusion. Recognizing the difference between normal conflict and emotional harm is key. Boundaries and support systems help break toxic cycles. You are not overreacting if you feel hurt by someone’s words. Healing begins when you stop believing the lies they tell you. Self-respect is your best defense against manipulation. Every person deserves communication that uplifts, not destroys.
