Emotional Abuse: Weakening a person’s sense of value by constantly criticizing and demeaning them.

Stalking: A person keeping tabs on another’s person’s every move and watching them, usually without their knowledge.

Digital Abuse: Using technology such as email, social networking, and texting to bully and harass another.

Spiritual Abuse: Bullying someone to subscribe to the same religion or belief as they do, no matter if the person believes in the philosophy or not.
