In this episode of No Filter, we spoke to Mia Boardman who bravely shared her experience of surviving domestic abuse during a 10-month relationship with her ex-boyfriend.
Although the first weeks of Mia’s relationship moved quickly, Mia’s ex began to call her hurtful names, make comments about her outfits, and even demand that she answer her phone after calling her relentlessly.
As the coercive control began to escalate, Mia’s ex-partner exhibited violent behaviour, leaving bruises she would cover with make-up. He even pulled a knife from the kitchen drawer to repeatedly stab her sofa.
After leaving the relationship and rebuilding her life, Mia now feels she has found her sparkle again. Mia spoke to us as part of our Women’s Aid campaign to help raise awareness on the signs of coercive control and domestic abuse.
If you or someone you know is experiencing coercive, controlling and abusive behaviour then it’s important to flag it to someone. Help and support is available from www.womensaid.org
