Domestic Abuse and its Harsh Realities

In the first three weeks of Covid-19 lockdown, domestic homicides more than doubled in the UK and countries elsewhere entering lockdown earlier reported increased domestic abuse and delayed reports, with victim-survivors only able to seek help once restrictions eased.Domestic abuse is an incident or pattern of incidents of controlling, coercive, threatening, degrading and violent behaviour, including sexual violence, in the majority of cases by a partner or ex-partner, but also by a family member or carer. In the vast majority of cases, it is experienced by women and is perpetrated by men.In this podcast today, I will be talking about the consequences of domestic abuse and what you can do if you are or have been victim to domestic abuse. I want you to know that help is available and that you do not need to suffer alone.If you would like to take your self development to the next level then please sign up to my FREE 12 week self discovery plan here: https://victim2victor.net/free-12-week-self-discovery-plan/More information about me can be found via links here: https://linktr.ee/healing.journeyyIf you are interested in my book ‘Victim 2 Victor’, it is now available on audio: Amazon: amzn.to/37jFt2W

Breaking the Vicious Cycle of Depression

In this podcast, I will be discussing the causes, symptoms and consequences of depression.  In my years when I was depressed as a result of the abuse and trauma that I incurred from a young age, I found just saying that I was 'depressed' made people feel uncomfortable and ashamed. This only made my condition worse and I was on the brink of suicide due to feelings of loneliness and feeling like I had no support. With the COVID pandemic and more people in isolation, depression rates are higher than ever and is now the number one mental health problem. Rates of depression and suicide are continually rising and increasingly striking younger people. Twenty years ago, depression in children was almost unknown, which tells us that we are dealing with a culturally transmitted phenomenon which is a result of changing environmental conditions that have led to a dramatic rise in people’s expectations from life. It is time to raise awareness of this increasing mental health issue and to help support the future of our next generation. If you are suffering from depression or know somebody who is, then I would highly recommend that you seek professional help from either your doctor or a registered counsellor.  If you would like to take your self development to the next level then please sign up to my FREE 12 week self discovery plan here: https://victim2victor.net/free-12-week-self-discovery-plan/More information about me can be found via links here: https://linktr.ee/healing.journeyyIf you are interested in my book 'Victim 2 Victor', it is now available on audio: Amazon: amzn.to/37jFt2W

Surviving Rape - Sexual Assault and Trauma

In this podcast we will talk about the rape culture, its direful consequences, possible causes, and some practical remedies. I have come together with a female student, Parul Dhand from Rajasthan India, to tackle the common issue of rape which exists in India where, according to recently released official government crime data, there is a rape reported every 15 minutes. These statistics outline only those cases that are reported as many cases still go unnoticed. I will be discussing the reasons behind the shame associated with rape and what could be done to help and empower more victims to speak up and seek helpPlease note: A sexual assault is any sexual act that a person did not consent to, or is forced into against their will. If you have been sexually assaulted as an adult or as a young person, it is important to remember that it wasn't your fault. Sexual violence is a crime and needs to be reported.You may contact me on any of the following social media platforms:* https://www.facebook.com/healingjourneyy/  * https://www.instagram.com/healing.journeyy/ More useful links can be found here: https://linktr.ee/healing.journeyy

Tackling the Issues of Eve teasing - Sexual Harassment & Sexual Assault

This podcast highlights a very important topic which is increasingly concerning in countries such as India, Pakistan, Bangladesh and Nepal. As you may have been aware, in India there have been recent changes in the law which state that groping a child through clothing isn't deemed as sexual assault as there is no skin-to-skin contact or sexual intent. I have come together with a female student,Parul Dhand from Rajasthan India, to gain her views about this issue. The aim of this podcast is to raise awareness worldwide about the issues of public sexual harassment and sexual assault that are still taking place in countries such as India, Pakistan, Bangladesh and Nepal.  I hope that this podcast empowers women and gives them the strength to deal with the problems that they face and enables them to seek help if they have already been victims to such abuse.This podcast is not aimed to ridicule any state or country but to merely try and tackle the issues that women are facing daily. For those of you who are unaware of the term Eve teasing, this is described as staring, stalking, passing comments, and inappropriate physical touch. Perceived consequences of eve teasing include tight restrictions on girls' mobility, inability to attend school or work, girls being blamed, and causing family problems.You may contact me on any of the following social media platforms:* https://www.facebook.com/healingjourneyy/  * https://www.instagram.com/healing.journeyy/ More useful links can be found here: https://linktr.ee/healing.journeyy

Victim 2 Victor - An Inspirational True Story About a Woman's Struggle with Sexual Abuse and Overcoming Trauma - Chapters 3 & 4

Hi listeners, my name is Anu Verma and I am a survivor of sexual abuse. Due to my early childhood experiences, I found myself trapped as an adult in a lot of unhealthy and abusive relationships. Trauma can have severe impacts on ones mental health and there is a need for more awareness and support out there to offer victims a helping hand and a way out. That’s what I’m trying to do in my own small way. I have read a lot over the years about abuse and have had much therapy but I found writing to be very therapeutic. It has helped me to heal and has given me a voice, so much so that I have recently been published. Although I am aware that there is much literature out there on the subject of abuse and there are some common traits in most experiences, I do still believe that every journey and experience is unique. As a British born Asian woman, I know only too well that in my community, many issues are still taboo and not discussed openly or at all. I share chapters 3 & 4 of my story with you in this podcast episode. My hopes are for my story to reach out to help raise awareness to be give survivors the strength and courage to speak up and to seek help. Please see an article which has been published on my story by the Daily Telegraph: https://www.coventrytelegraph.net/news/coventry-news/coventry-sexual-abuse-survivors-powerful-19624725Please follow me on any of the following social media platforms:* https://www.facebook.com/healingjourneyy/  * https://www.facebook.com/victim2victor* https://www.instagram.com/healing.journeyy/* https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCzhhmjStavLAZdhKgWjQb0Q *  https://twitter.com/HealingJourne13Authors Website: https://victim2victor.netLinks for book purchase:* https://www.amazon.co.uk/Victim-Victor-inspirational-overcoming-empowerment-ebook/dp/B08H19PCHP* https://www.amazon.com/Victim-Victor-inspirational-overcoming-empowerment-ebook/dp/B08H19PCHPGod Bless Stay Safe xx
