Reflecting on her personal experience with relationship abuse, senior Rachel Mattson said it may have been difficult for others to recognize her situation. She said although there was no physical evidence of abuse, mental and emotional damage still affected her daily life.
“It was a lot of making me feel like I was the one that caused all of the mess and it was always my fault, and it was those little things thrown around that when you’re outside, you’re not going to see it. There were no bruises,” Mattson said.
