I believe that abuse occurs when another person says or does something that makes you feel uncomfortable, and lowers your self esteem in any way, in a way that is done on purpose.

Yes. Her mother received the brunt of the abuse (both verbal and physical), but when Christina Aguilera's father, Fausto, began to abuse the children as well, Aguilera's mother filed for divorce.

Can verbal abuse cause physical pain?
Well of course, verbal abuse always results in stress and stress causes many physical problems, heart attacks even. Also, NO ONE deserves any sort of abuse and having been in both types of realationships I would honestly say it is harder to deal, long term at least, with verbal (mental abuse) than physical because it starts to stick in your head even if you don't believe it, it has a way of leaving you with so many insecurities later. And anyone who can do that to someone they say they care for either doesn't have true feelings for that person or has alot of their own issues they should deal with before getting emotionally involved with anyone (at least in my opinion).

With both the verbal and physical abuse, the victim can become depressed. The victim can start to develop a lot of disorders besides the depression disorder, they can also have multiple personalities, become schizophrenia, have insomnia. If the physical abuse happeneds way to often the abuser may end up in PRISON for killing the victim accidentally, or going to jail for hurting them so bad that they end up in the hospital, put in a coma. IF the victim ever chooses to leave the abuser, they may become stalked by the abuser. Stalking can be strange phone calls made to their house and all you hear is breathing. Stalking can also be driving passed the victims house numerous times, sitting in front of their house etc. So many ugly things can go on with the verbal and physical abuse. If verbal abuse starts off first, usually physical abuse happeneds not long after that. Do what you need to do, to get out of the relationship. Report it to the police. Take photos of the bruises cause if you go to court, those are your proof you need, to have them locked away.
