- Tell me how to dress or how much makeup to wear?
- Try to control what I do and who I see?
- Try to keep me from seeing or talking to my family and friends?
- Have big mood swings-- being angry and yelling at me one minute, and the next minute being sweet and apologetic?
- Make me feel nervous or like I'm "walking on eggshells"?
- Put me down or criticize me and make me feel like I can't do anything right or that no one else would want me?
- Threaten to hurt me?
