Emotional Abuse Questions, Please someone answer?

Thursday, May 7th, 2009
Cam =o] asked:


Emotional & Mental & Psychological Abuse amongst adults (NO CHILDREN involved).

1. Could someone give me a definition to each? Are they different definitions or basically the same? (Wikipedia wasn’t any help).

2. Could someone please explain an example of each?

3. Is the word “abuse” used interchangeably with “mistreatment, maltreatment, etc”?

4. Would “neglect” be considered a form of abuse?

I feel like I KNOW the answers, but I’d really appreciate it if someone can actually define it, Thank you, I will choose a best answer!
