What happens when attention slowly turns into control?
In Part 1 of Makena’s story, she shares how a relationship that began with friendship, attraction and fun gradually became possessive and controlling. It started with small things that were easy to explain away. Complicated rules around communication. Constant calls when she was out with friends. Accusations of cheating. Wanting constant access to her while making himself difficult to reach. Over time, the intensity escalated until Makena began to realise that Brian knew things about her private conversations that she had never told him.
In this episode, Makena takes us through the early signs of coercive control, how easily controlling behaviour can be mistaken for love or concern, and the frightening moment she begins to question just how much access her partner has to her life.
This is Part 1 of Makena’s story. Part 2 continues next Monday.
