*Trigger warning- Discussions of suicide*
Please google for helplines in your country if anything is triggering in this episode. xx
After seeing on Tik Tok and Reddit the information that has come to light about the tragic passing of Mica Miller in the US, I have changed today's topic to this.
It was important to share what happened to both myself and the victim prior to me in order to show how Suicide can be part of DV. It's a long episode as I go into detail about the one before me who did end up attempting to take her life and then what was done to me.
If coercive control is being made illegal in many countries, the psychological warfare and direct conscious push by these abusers should eventually be able to be criminalised. While they did not complete the task they set it up, much like ordering a hit. While we don't expect them to be charged with murder, the prevalence of this needs to be studied so some justice can be given to the countless families who lose loved ones in this way.
RIP to Mica and many condolences to her family and friends.
May God bring you peace and wisdom at this time.

ABOUT:
Love is a Battlefield was initially intended to be an educational podcast about domestic violence / domestic abuse and all kinds of relationship drama. It has now ended up being both educational and also sharing story times and experiences (while keeping perpetrators details private). The importance of sharing experiences and knowledge helps to empower women (including trans women!) and those who identify with the issues discussed.
About the podcaster: Tilly is a Registered Nurse & was recently a Mental Health Practitioner. She has completed many DV courses and is a survivor of domestic violence, having almost lost her life. Tilly was fortunate to see a perpetrator imprisoned, but this is not the reality for many survivors. Having briefly worked in radio many years ago, the idea for this podcast came from noticing a very real gap in the lack of knowledge held by DV survivors. Knowledge is power and Tilly hopes to empower each and every person to live a life free from abuse or oppression.
