We examined all the sides and nuances of abuse and found out the most important thing \u2013 basically, you need to run from someone who uses their fist, shoots their mouth off or hurts you in any other way. However, abusive relationships under quarantine are a special story.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In many countries, there has been an increase in the number of victims of domestic violence seeking protection under quarantine conditions up to 30%. Why is there an increase in violence? <\/p>\n\n\n\n

  1. Excessive alcohol consumption.<\/strong><\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n

    Increased general anxiety about society, restrictions, and increasing uncertainty — all of that makes emotionally unstable individuals, which often includes abusers, resort to a tried and tested means of relieving tension. Stress isn\u2019t really relieved by alcohol, whereas disinhibition increases, which provokes a surge of aggression «out of the blue.» <\/p>\n\n\n\n

    2. Anger at the circumstances, the government, the situation in general.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

    That\u2019s another reason. It\u2019s naturally impossible to direct aggression \u201ctowards the responsible parties\u201d, but there are those nearby to whom it can easily be redirected.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    3. Blurred social barriers and rules.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

    During tense periods like the war, there\u2019s a feeling that nobody is gonna pay attention to all sorts of «trifles» — you can loot, commit atrocities, act in a disorderly manner and so on. On a global scale, no one\u2019s gonna notice this, which means that you can use your fists, no one\u2019ll know. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

    4. A high number of irritants.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

    There are a lot of irritants in a confined space: screaming children, stupid neighbors who apparently decided to do some renovations, and you can\u2019t get away from the sounds of a drill, the requirement to order some kind of electronic passes, the inability to engage the usual pleasures like meeting friends or visiting a sports bar (or a lover<\/strong>) on Fridays. All of this naturally elevates the stress levels and increases the likelihood of an «explosion.»<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    The quarantine forces us to be in a confined space with members of our family, with almost no opportunity to leave, get out of the home for long, \u201cchange location\u201d at any time. If everything is fine within the family, then there are no particular problems, although even in \u201cnormal\u201d families, spending 24 hours a day with each other can be difficult. But what if the aggressor and the victim were together and there is literally no way to leave right now? How can you reduce potential risks?<\/p>\n\n\n\n
