Adult Intimate Partner Violence- Physical

Why is this important?
Intimate partner violence (IPV) can affect health in many ways. The longer the violence goes on, the more serious the effects. Many victims suffer physical injuries; some are minor, others are more serious and can cause death or disabilities. Not all injuries are physical or sexual. IPV can also cause emotional harm. Victims may have trauma symptoms, including flashbacks, panic attacks, or trouble sleeping. Victims often have low self-esteem. They may have a hard time trusting others and being in relationships. The anger and stress that victims feel may lead to eating disorders and depression. Some victims even think about or commit suicide. IPV is linked to harmful health behaviors as well. Victims may try to cope with their trauma in unhealthy ways. This includes smoking, drinking, taking drugs, or having risky sex.
