Women abuse in South Africa has increased dramatically.
One of the reasons for his can be the increase in drug abuse. Because drugs and alcohol can make a person, in particular and addict aggressive, they can become aggressive to the women in their family. This can also happen because drugs can alter the way the brain perceives reality. Because of how this works a person can become in particular very paranoid and possessive.
This means that they might start seeing things that are not there and they might start perceiving things that are not real or even over perceived. This can also happen because they might rationalised a situation very differently than when they were sober. This can lead to them becoming very aggressive because they are unable to control their anger. They might think someone is being aggressive towards them when they are not. This can lead to an arrest for abuse or the women feeling to a place of shelter.
