Sexual and domestic violence leave impacts that extend far beyond the immediate physical harm. These experiences can fundamentally alter how you see yourself, others, and the world around you—and those effects are valid regardless of how long ago the violence occurred or what form it took.
Emotional and Psychological Effects
You might experience intense emotions like fear, shame, guilt, or anger—sometimes all at once. Many survivors struggle with anxiety, depression, or feeling emotionally numb. You may find yourself hypervigilant, constantly scanning for danger, or experiencing flashbacks and intrusive memories that make it feel like the trauma is happening again. Sleep disturbances, nightmares, and difficulty concentrating are common. Some survivors describe feeling disconnected from their bodies or experiencing moments where they don’t feel fully present.
Impact on Identity and Relationships
Violence, especially from someone you trusted, can shake your sense of who you are and your ability to trust your own judgment. You might struggle with self-blame, even though the violence was never your fault. Intimacy—both physical and emotional—can become complicated or frightening. You may find yourself withdrawing from relationships, or alternately, seeking connection in ways that don’t feel healthy. Setting boundaries might feel impossible, or you might build walls so high that no one can reach you.
Physical Effects
Trauma lives in the body. You might experience chronic pain, headaches, digestive issues, or other physical symptoms that doctors struggle to explain. Your body’s stress response system may be on constant alert, leading to exhaustion, tension, or feeling unsafe in your own skin.

Middlesbrough is a Teesside city with a proud but challenging post-industrial history in steel and chemical manufacturing, and its mental health landscape is shaped by persistent economic deprivation, high unemployment in some communities, and the compounding health inequalities that make it one of England's most disadvantaged major towns. NHS mental health services are provided through Tees, Esk and Wear Valleys NHS Foundation Trust, and demand for both community and acute mental health care consistently exceeds available resources. Teesside University contributes to the local mental health workforce through its psychology and counselling programmes and provides a student counselling service for enrolled students. Common therapy concerns include depression, anxiety, trauma, substance use, and the long-term psychological impact of economic hardship and community disinvestment on residents across all age groups.
