Is this worse than physical abuse? It can be worse than even some bad cases of physical abuse, because there are no bruises or marks that anyone can see, and because abusers often act nice on cue in front of other people, and they often believe they are not being abusive. When it is very severe you feel like you were beaten to a pulp everywhere, and if it happens often enoujgh you never feel healthy and you don't even know what feeling healthy feels lilke- for a child this is the worst, because they don't have a way to understand what is happening or how to ask for help. Then you are very vulnerable to bullies because you don't learn communication skills or social skills or social understanding at home.
