Every relationship has its own unique complexities but some boundaries should not be crossed.
In different contexts, your partner's behavior can be both a symbol of a healthy relationship and a symptom of a toxic one. Asking yourself questions about your relationship is the most valuable self-care you can do.
Start doing the ritual now!
Four actresses from the Small City Theater behind the Canal supported the cause of The Wake Up Foundation, as part of the campaign for The Ask Yourself Ritual.
Luiza Grigorova, Tanya Pashankova, Irini Zhambonas and Zheni Lecheva tell us the true stories of 8 women from the Facebook group ‘You are not alone - Together Against Violence’ with over 9,200 members. All the stories are from women who have experienced violence but have managed to get out of toxic relationships and share their experiences to inspire hope and confidence in those who need support to take the first step.
The videos can be viewed on the social channels of The Wake Up Foundation. This campaign shines a light on the journey of abuse survivors, guiding them from victims to heroes who have changed their lives and are ready to talk about their experiences.
There is one voice that will never lie to us - our own. It shows the truth, and The Ask Yourself Ritual is precisely aimed at checking whether we are listening to ourselves enough.
In less than two months, the results that the ritual shows are:
75.84% of respondents are in a relationship that seems healthy and peaceful.
16.74% are in a relationship that seems to have aspects that deserve additional attention.
7.42% are in a relationship that seems to have worrying signals and it is advisable to share them with loved ones or a specialist.
Even the smallest number is too big when it comes to violence in relationships. We should not hesitate to seek help when something in our relationships alarms us about some kind of violence.

We sincerely thank Luiza Grigorova, Tanya Pashankova, Irini Zhambonas and Zheni Lecheva, who took this cause to heart and participated in the filming of the videos free of charge.
We created this campaign with our friends from Kibrit and Next DC so that you can take care of yourself.
