Emotional/mental abuse is extremely serious. It is so hard to be judged, wrongly accused, falsely blamed, manipulated, taken for granted, shamed, and made to feel guilty for things you did not do by someone who is in reality doing those things to you or treating you in an unfair, unkind, and nasty way. When you are dealing with mental and psychological abuse it can be more hidden at times versus more obvious abuse like physical, sexual, or verbal. It can make you feel crazy, question yourself. It can even cause self doubt, and often times the loss of self esteem over time. It causes a lot of adrenaline to flood your body, which is corrosive to the liver, brain, and nerves. The surges of adrenaline also feed pathogens. If you are experiencing this, it can be a tough balance to find the best solution/resolution depending on what is going on. Sometimes you don’t have the option to run away, or get rid of them. In those cases, limiting conversation and boundaries are so important. There are some instances where no matter how much you love on someone they can still act venomous and poisonous to you. It’s important to recognize the difference with these kinds of people so that you can protect yourself. You can love them without being harmed repeatedly by praying from them and showing kindness but also not engaging in conversations where they seek to manipulate, gaslight, shame you, or falsely blame you. They could be emotionally wounded and reenacting that with you, or high in metals, or both. Either way, if they are not able to become self aware of their own behaviors to change how they treat you it’s not a healing space where there can be growth and forward movement. Sometimes you need to let go. Sometimes you need to hang in there. Either way: here are some tools you can use to protect yourself.
GUARD YOUR ADRENALS 🛡️ LIKE GOLD 💰 AT FORT KNOX
If you are dealing with any kind of abuse I would recommend:
🍎 EATING MORE OFTEN - every hour to hour and a half max to keep plenty of glucose in your system because you are burning through it more rapidly with all of the adrenaline.
EAT ADRENAL SNACKS 🥒 - has a list of adrenal snacks like:
💛Apple, celery, dates.
💛Banana, dates, and romaine.
💛Coconut water, banana, and spinach.
💛You can have a juice or apple, celery, cucumber for the adrenals.
EAT SUPPORTIVE FOODS- If you are eating cooked foods, sweet potatoes and potatoes are amazing to provide lots of glucose and calories to support your nerves. Leafy greens 🥬 are also so important! Add them to a big green juice or into smoothies. Bananas are great and can help support you to heal PTSD. Atlantic Dulse is great to ground you (it also removes metals).
SUPPORT YOURSELF EMOTIONALLY- your soul can take a hit from any abuse. Some tools that can help are listening to birdsong, taking walks in nature, talking to a compassionate friend, spending time by the ocean (don’t burn), gazing at the stars ✨ I personally love to pray & worship as well I find that extremely helpful.
FIND COMMUNITY/SUPPORT - you need support when you’re struggling. This could look like a local church group, a dear friend you can talk to, a caring practitioner, a supportive family member. 💞 don’t try to do it all alone.
If you are needing support, I offer 1 on 1 coaching sessions and would be happy to assist. I have a special offer for those struggling financially where you can make a donation gift amount of your choice to receive support. DM me for more details and stay tuned at for more information 🩷
