How to spot the signs of an abusive relationship
Do you suspect that someone you know is in an abusive relationship? How would you tell, and what could you advise them to do?
This article gives you the signs to watch for and gives you an idea of where you can get help.
The National Centre for Domestic Violence is a great source of support and can even prepare injunctions and non-molestation orders for you. Call them for advice if you are in a non life-threatening situation.
If you or your family are in danger call 999 and find a safe place.
Why do men wait until crisis point before seeking help?
There is an excellent article in the Telegraph written by the CEO of Samaratans, Ruth Sutherland. She highlights the difference between the way men and women deal with the problems which can send them to breaking point.
Samaritans research shows that men often wait until crisis point which results in high suicide rates for men. They want to raise awareness of the importance of getting help at an early stage so your emotions don’t build up too much. They have developed a new campaign to highlight the problem which will be appearing in all railway stations across the country. Please raise awareness among your friends and family and help men to get the help they need before it reaches a crisis.

Do you need to argue in a different way?
Tips on how to argue without spoiling your relationships.
We all have lots of relationships in our lives – with loved ones, workmates, friends, family members, professionals to name but a few. But do you find yourself arguing a lot with people? Have you become isolated because of it? Here are some tips in a fun video with a serious message to help you think about the way you argue and how to improve the way you talk to people to get the best results.
If you find that you are getting angry a lot of the time perhaps it’s time to speak to your GP and find a way to get help, but if your arguments are because you feel frustrated you can’t get your point across in the right way, maybe you can try out different ways to talk to others.
You can’t change other people, but you can change the way they react to you by doing something different. Just listening instead of jumping in to the discussion can give you time to really understand what the other person is saying. If you want to discuss something difficult with someone then taking some time first to plan what you want to say can help.
If you are still finding it difficult, make an appointment with Relate on 01325 461500 or by visiting our website, we are the relationship people and specialise in helping people improve their communication skills – with partners, workmates and anyone else you have a relationship with.
