Family and friends

It can often be difficult for someone to tell family and friends that they are being abused, so they may not know what is happening. However, they may have been waiting for you to say something to them. The Scottish Domestic Abuse Helpline 0800 027 1234 can help you explain what you have been going through. You can also give their number to family and friends to call.

You may feel you can talk to trusted friends and family members.
