While PCC wants you to live your best life, we’re checking-in on your wellness and providing you reminders of what a healthy relationship looks like, share signs of an unhealthy relationship, and provide you support resources if you (or loved one) are navigating an unhealthy and / or dangerous relationship.
One Love Foundation shares that healthy relationships bring out the best in you and make you feel good about yourself. A healthy relationship does not mean a “perfect” relationship, and no one is healthy 100% of the time, but the signs found inside the heart graphic are behaviors you should strive for in all of your relationships.
Healthy relationships manifest themselves as healthy communication; another important part of a healthy relationship is loving yourself. Here are some characteristics and behaviors of a healthy relationship.
Domestic violence is a pattern of behaviors used by one to maintain power and control over another in an intimate relationship. Domestic violence doesn’t discriminate. People of any race, age, gender, sexuality, religion, education level, or economic status can be a victim, or perpetrator, of domestic violence. This includes behaviors that physically harm, intimidate, manipulate or control a partner, or otherwise force them to behave in ways they don’t want to, including through physical violence, threats, emotional abuse, or financial control. Multiple forms of abuse are usually present at the same time in abusive situations.
