Cycle of ViolencePhase 1: Tension Building Phase - Victim tries to keep the peace and cover up abuser’s behavior. Abusive behavior begins to escalate and tension builds.
Phase 2: Battering Incident - Violent incident happens. Victim may dissociate to get through incident. Almost always happens in private.
Phase 3: Honeymoon Phase - Abuser promises to change and never hurt victim again. Abuser is loving and kind.

Guiding PrinciplesIntroduction, page 5
Alcohol, drugs and anger
are aggravating factors which contribute
to the abuse, but are not the cause of
