Yesterday I wrote about your attacker being closer to home then you may think. (Click here for story) It appears this young woman in Midvale was attempting to escape her abuser and he attacked her for it. Again Ultimate Defense is taking control of your life and only putting the you and your loved ones safety in your own hands. It means being prepared to handle any threat no matter the source. Having someone, who should care about you be the threat on your life is far worse than the stranger in the street because it is also a betrayal of trust at the same time. The stranger you don't trust, you are suspicious of what they may do. When you see them you are on your guard at all times. When a loved one turns into a threat it is far more scary because they know about you. Where you live or where you may be. The stranger may only have one chance to attack you the loved one turned attacker has multiple and can wait for just the right time.
A threat is a threat no matter the source and no one has the right to harm you so don't wait for the attack to happen. A restraining order is something you need to do but it is not a force field. If (like this boyfriend did) a person decides to violate the restraining order their consequences are legal action that will only happen after they violate the restraining order (like attack you) and by that point if you are not prepared it may be too late. You can not relay on the legal system to protect your life or your loved ones lives, you must do that, then be ready to help the legal system enforce the violation. Your protection is your responsibility and only you can take back control from that abuser. Only by be prepared will you reduce the fear and be able to take back your life. Don't be a victim learn to Ultimately Defend yourself from all threats.
