Do you need help? Have you clicked on this section because you feel afraid of someone who is close to you? If so, you have taken an important and positive step and we hope we can support you to keep safe. If you feel you are in immediate danger please click here. If not, please read on. You are not alone in feeling something is not right with your relationship. Maybe there have been some warning signs. One in five women in Ireland is affected by domestic violence. We hear from women every day who are living in fear of their boyfriends, husbands and partners. Sometimes, they are experiencing abuse after the relationship has ended. Who can I talk to? We understand how hard it is to make sense of what is happening to you. It can be difficult to talk about your situation, even to your closest family and friends. You may feel lonely and isolated. Maybe you have been told by your partner that he will hurt you if you tell someone. Perhaps you have told someone and they have told you just to leave, run, to walk away. But we know it is not that easy. Your partner does not have the right to control and dominate you. You should not have to worry about how he will react to what you do. Domestic violence is a crime and no one deserves to be feel afraid, controlled, threatened, beaten or feel in fear for their lives. Maybe you feel that you are some how to blame for the abuse. Your partner, and other people, may have told you that it is your fault. But that is not true. Your partner is responsible for the abuse. And he alone can stop it. Remember - you have the right to feel safe in your own home and feel safe and respected in your relationship. How can Women's Aid help? Women’s Aid knows how difficult it can be living with domestic violence. That is why we offer free, confidential support and information. We listen to you and talk to you about your situation. We won’t judge you or tell you what to do. We won’t tell anyone you’ve been in touch with us. We can discuss your options and help you plan your safety. We can support you by sitting down with you to you explore the various options available to you. We can also go to court with you. You can rebuild your life after abuse, although right now it may feel impossible. It won’t happen overnight, but every day will be a little easier. Women’s Aid can support you along the way.

An bhfuil cuidiú de dhíth ort? Ar chliceáil tú ar an rannán seo toisc go bhfuil eagla ort roimh dhuine éigin a bhfuil dlúthchaidreamh agat leo? Más é sin an cás, tá céim thábhachtach agus dhearfach glactha agat agus tá súil againn gur féidir linn cuidiú leat agus tú a choinneáil sábháilte. Má cheapann tú go bhfuil tú i gcontúirt láithreach cliceáil anseo le do thoil. Mura gceapann, léigh leat. Níl tú leat féin má cheapann tú go bhfuil rud éigin i do chaidreamh nach bhfuil i gceart. B'fhéidir go raibh roinnt comharthaí rabhaidh ann. Tarlaíonn foréigean baile do bhean amháin as cúigear in Éirinn. Cloisimid ó mhná a bhfuil eagla a n-anama orthu roimh a mbuachaillí, a bhfir chéile agus a bpáirtithe. Tarlaíonn mí-úsáid dóibh corruair nuair a bhíonn deireadh lena gcaidreamh. Cé is féidir liom labhairt leis? Tuigimid cé chomh deacair is atá sé cad atá ag tarlú duit a thuiscint. Is féidir leis a bheith deacair labhairt faoi do chás, fiú le do dhlúthbhaill teaghlaigh agus do dhlúthchairde féin. D'fhéadfadh sé go bhfuil tú ag mothú uaigneach agus leat féin. B'fhéidir gur inis do pháirtí duit go ngortódh sé tú má insíonn tú do dhuine ar bith eile cad atá ag tarlú. B'fhéidir gur inis tú do dhuine éigin é agus gur iarr siad ort é a fhágáil, rith ar shiúl, imigh uaidh. Ach tá a fhios againn nach bhfuil sé chomh furasta sin. Níl an ceart ag do pháirtí chun tú a rialú agus a smachtú. Níor cheart duit imní a bheith ort faoin dóigh a fhreagróidh sé ar rudaí a dhéanann tú. Is coir é foréigean baile agus níor cheart go gcuirfí bagairt ar dhuine ar bith, go mbuailfí iad nó go mbeadh eagla a n-anama orthu. B'fhéidir go mothaíonn tú go bhfuil an locht ortsa ar chúis éigin as an mí-úsáid. D'fhéadfadh sé gur inis do pháirtí nó duine éigin eile duit gur tusa is ciontaigh. Ach níl sé sin fíor. Tá do pháirtí freagrach as an mí-úsáid. Agus ní féidir le duine ar bith eile ach é féin é a stopadh. Coinnigh cuimhne - tá an céad agat a bheith sábháilte i do bhaile féin agus a bheith sábháilte agus meas a bheith ort i do chaidreamh. Cén dóigh ar féidir le Grúpa Cúnta na mBan cuidiú? Tá a fhios ag Grúpa Cúnta na mBan cé chomh deacair is atá sé a bheith ag maireachtáil faoi fhoréigean baile.Is é sin an fáth go bhfuilimid ag tairiscint tacaíocht agus eolas rúnda, saor in aisce. Éistimid leat agus labhraímid leat faoi do chás. Ní cháinfimid tú nó ní hinseoimid duit cad le déanamh. Ní hinseoimid do dhuine ar bith eile go ndearnadh teagmháil linn. Is féidir linn do roghanna a phlé agus cuidiú leat do shábháilteacht a phleanáil. Is féidir linn tacaíocht a thabhairt duit leis na roghanna éagsúla atá ar fáil duit a scrúdú. Is féidir linn dul chun na cúirte leat chomh maith. Is féidir linn feabhas a chur ar do shaol arís i ndiaidh mí-úsáid, cé go mb'fhéidir go bhfuil an chuma ann anois go bhfuil sé seo indéanta. Ní tharlódh sé thar oíche, ach éireoidh sé píosa beag níos fusa gach lá. Féadfaidh Grúpa Cúnta na mBan cuidiú a thabhairt duit leis seo.
