Have you experienced emotional abuse from your husband? Maybe in the form of sexual betrayal. If so, here are five affirmations for emotional abuse victims.
1. I Am Enough
Abusive relationships often diminish a person’s self-worth. Victims are led to believe they need their abuser for validation. By repeating the affirmation, I AM ENOUGH, victims can begin to rebuild their self-esteem and recognize their intrinsic value.
Say out loud: I AM ENOUGH
2. People Have To Earn My Trust & Love
Many victims are conditioned to give unconditional trust and love. This affirmation encourages survivors to set boundaries and engage only in healthy relationships. Saying PEOPLE HAVE TO EARN MY TRUST AND LOVE empowers victims to take control of their emotional well-being.
Say out loud: PEOPLE HAVE TO EARN MY TRUST AND LOVE
3. What Happened To Me Is Not My Fault
Victims often internalize blame for their abuse. They may question their actions and feel responsible for the abuser’s behavior. Repeating WHAT HAPPENED TO ME IS NOT MY FAULT helps survivors shift the blame away from themselves and recognize the true source of the abuse.
