According to mentalhelp.net,
"Abuse occurs when people mistreat or misuse other people, showing no concern for their integrity or innate worth as individuals, and in a manner that degrades their well being. Abusers frequently are interested in controlling their victims. They use abusive behaviors to manipulate their victims into submission or compliance with their will.
Abusers control and compel their victims in a variety of ways. They may verbally abuse them by calling them names, tell them they are stupid, have no worth or will not amount to anything on their own. They may become physically violent, inflicting pain, bruises, broken bones and other physical wounds (visible and hidden both). They may rape or sexually assault their victims. Alternatively they may neglect dependent victims, disavowing any responsibilities they may have towards those victims, and causing damage through lack of action rather than through a harmful, manipulative action itself.
Abuse is a commonplace event in modern times, taking on many different forms, including physical, sexual, emotional, and verbal abuse, occurring in many different contexts, including the home (domestic violence, spouse rape, incest), the workplace (sexual harassment), and in institutional (elder abuse, bullying) and religious and community (hate crime) settings."
Indeed, we will take Abuse in the Military to another level. We are trained with Abuse to save our lives in War. However, most Soldiers do not know their Rights on what direction they can take when Military Members have Abused them to the point of no return, suicidal thinking, and mental health. Has your Privacy been Stomped all over. We are working on enforcing the HIPA laws with the 1974 Privacy Act within our Military. You have Rights to take a Temporary Restraining order out on your Abusers and fill Harassment charges at any police station or Military Police Installation. You must do this if you are in real danger or are to the point of fear and death. Do not wait, file charges now. If you can wait we just might be able to help you and give you some direction on how you can catch them in the act to save your life, another Soldiers life in the future.
SoldiersRights.com is prepared to help you with information that may just save your future and build our leadership back stronger then ever. We recommend checking with you state laws about audio recording devices to protect you. Under Tennessee, Kentucky and Federal law; you have the right to record Military Personal to protect you for your safety as long as one person knows and that the recorder is not breaking security clearance outlines. Simple, just do not record any sensitive information, only the Abuse. Indeed, be careful how you publish your audio or video, because you can be suited in court by slander. Talk to your Attorney first or ask SoldiersRights.com. Do not listen to Barracks Law, the ones Soldiers make sound good. Look for our post on how to use audio to record your abuser and more about laws that will be useful.
