Americas Next Top Model and Fear, and Emotional Abuse

Okay, I am a junkie of America's next top Model. I love the show. Not just because
I wanted to be a model in my previous life:), but because of what you can learn from
the show itself.

Last week, Tyra spoke to the remaining models about how they were feeling under the pressure. There were two points I wanted to highlight that can be applied to why it's easy
to stay in an emotionally abusive relationship.

1. Tyra said that we are often led by fear in making decisions
2. When you don't confront situations that bother you, it will come out in other ways.

When we think about leaving an abusive relationship we often stay because of fear. Fear of the abuser not being able to survive without us and fear of how the person may react. You could add to the list. So we stay and hope for the best. Mostly what ends up happening is that we die more inside and build resentment not only with the abuser but with ourselves.

So this resentment builds up and all of a sudden, it comes out in other ways.

Being led by fear makes you
feel like you are not in control of your own mind. Know that your Creator
gave you a mind and a spirit that can defeat fear.

You deserve more for yourself than living in constant fear and chaos. What will it take to leave behind the abuse that you are suffering. Let me know and I will help in any way I can. I have been where you are.

You are more powerful than you realize! I believe in you.
