💡Recognizing the Signs

👉Not all abuse is physical. It can be emotional, psychological, or digital, leaving wounds that aren't always visible but are just as real.

🫡This week, we're highlighting some of the warning signs of unhealthy relationships and reminding our community that everyone deserves to feel safe, respected, heard, supported, and free to be themselves.

✍️If you recognize these behaviors in your own relationship or someone else's, know that you are not alone. Help is available, and reaching out is a sign of strength.

🫂The Milwaukee LGBT Community Center offers affirming behavioral health services, counseling, support groups, community resources, referrals, and education for LGBTQ+ individuals across our community.
