You are not alone.
No estds sola.
If your partner objects when you use the phone, limits your
everyday contact with family and friends, and you restrict
yourself to avoid angry, aggressive confrontations, you need
to step back and take another look. How can you cope once
you are involved with a controlling partner? Call Project Safe
for help. Our hotline is confidential, and counseling is free.
Get your life back. Get help.
