What is the abuse cycle?
The abuse cycle is a pattern of behavior displayed in some abusing relationships. It is the theory of social cycle, which is the theory of scientists and doctors to study human behavior. The abuse cycle has three or more phases, usually starting with the stress building phases, progressing into the reconciliation phase and ending with a calm phase - and repeats until the relationship does not end. Many people believe that this theory is defective because it does not cover all offensive relationships, but is still used to educate people about violence. This social cycle theory has been developed in the age of 70, but has since been modified to cover other relationships.
The parties are rarely able to conduct a conversation without a fight in the stress construction phase. This is a phase where verbal, physical or emotional abuse begins. Abuses can scream, punch and dig or play with the emotions of the victim. The victim in the relationship begins to feel terrible and often does what he can to keep the abuse. There is usually a large voltage between the two sides, hence the phase name.
Another phase is called honeymoon, make -up or reconciliation. At this stage, the rapist apologizes for what he has done, even if it can be done in several ways. Sometimes the rapist apologizes abundantly, sometimes crying and accepting all the blame. Other times, the rapist apologizes, but he will head for the victim all the blame of abuse. The abuse may even deny that the abuse has even occurred or convinced the victim that abuse was not as bad as he thought.
After the wedding phase, the relationship usually returns to normal, which is called a calm phase. During this phase of the abuse cycle, there is minimal to any emotional, physical or verbal abuse. If the rapist promised in the Make -up phase, he or theight deliver them. The victim usually hopes that abuse ends up or believes it is over because he is a nice rapist. In a quiet phase, both sides may appear or be happy until the abuse cycle starts again when the tension begins to build.
ThesePhases are sometimes served different labels. They were modified to suit many circumstances and both sexes, because the original theories assumed that a man was a rapist. In fact, men and women are able to abuse other people. Although some experts reject a cycle of abuse with regard to adaptations because it does not correspond to every relationship. Although it can be a useful tool that helps abusing and victims to recognize obvious abuse, people can mislead in unique but still gross situations.
