Fear & Loathing
Show notes
A heads up: this episode deals with serious themes including domestic violence, coercive control and suicide. Listener discretion is advised.
We always hear how great a relationship is when it begins. Why else would it, right? There’s butterflies, late nights staying up talking, a sense of belonging, desire and comfort. Having that one person to plan life with and who’s just desperate to have you around all the time.
But what about when that desperation becomes too much and starts looking and feeling more like … control? And then that control becomes worrying .. and scary … and dangerous?
If you or anyone you know is a victim of domestic violence, you can visit www.1800respect.org.au or call 1800RESPECT a confidential information, counselling and support service for people impacted by domestic, family or sexual violence
