The Equality Wheel: Healthy vs Abusive Relationships
In this video Ruth Darlene of WomenSV discusses elements of healthy relationships represented in the Equality Wheel and how they differ from abusive relationships.
Examining the differences between healthy and abusive relationships reveals the stark contrast between the two. Abusive relationships have a bizarre tendency to make those involved lose sight of what a normal, healthy relationship looks like. If you've been in an abusive relationship for a long time, it might even be hard to recall what a healthy relationship is supposed to feel like. The Equality Wheel demonstrates elements of a healthy relationship, while the Power and Control Wheel contains elements of an abusive relationship.
