How Do You React To Verbal Abuse From A Person Without Being Able To Leave The Situation?
Depends on what they are saying about you. Its always best to be the bigger person but screw that right stand up for yourself who cares if no one agrees with what you believe in. I will give you a situation of mine that happened to me. My ex was being mean to me in front of people the only thing bad he could say about me was I have a gut on me from haven kids but for him i knew all his dirt because he was a peice of poop. So i use that and hurt his feelings and it really hurt his feelings when I had my daughter flip him the bird and say I hate you so you just gotta know what hurts a persons feeling and when you figure that out hitm were it hurts.
I’m going to assume that you are a worker in a nursing home,because this happens very often to caregivers,some of those folks in the home can be very abusive,and it’s against the law for you to abuse them back…if that is the case,don’t take it personally,realize that they may not be abusing you consciously but as an effect of their disease,usually dementia,Talk to them firmly but not mean, realize that it is more for your benefit than theirs,as a way for you to vent steam and still be civil to them.It is a challenge but it can be done,if you are in a private home and it is a loved one who is acting this way you need to alert someone that this person is going insane and seek help from your dr as he can refer you to social services that deal with Alzheimer’s or dementia patients.I hope I helped.
