To effectively deal with emotional abuse, you need to report it to the authorities who can deal with it. The appropriate authority will depend on the abuse. For example, if someone is suffering extreme emotional abuse, then you should call the police. However, if you know a child is being emotionally abused, then contacting Child Protective Services might make more sense. If the emotional abuse has gotten to the point where the person feels terrorized or is suffering severe physical ailments, then you should call the police. Only the police can extricate someone, in particular an older person being emotionally abused by a caretaker or legal guardian. If a child is being emotionally abused by an adult in the house, then you should report the abuse to your local CPS office. You can find the appropriate office by calling the Childhelp hotline at 1-800-422-4453. When you are connected to CPS, you may be asked for the following information:  your relationship to the child the child’s name and age the child’s home address and current location the suspected abuser and his or her relationship to the child the parents’ contact information the names of other witnesses and contact information for each Each state should have an APS agency.

Check your employee handbook or manuals. If you can’t find any information, then reach out to Human Resources and ask for a meeting. You might work for a small company without a Human Resources department. In that situation, you should talk to the business owner to report bullying by your coworkers. If your boss is the bully, then you might not have any other choice but to quit your job. The appropriate authorities will want proof of the abuse, and you should readily share it with them. For example, you can provide copies of any abusive communications. You can also share copies of your medical records or give the authorities the names of witnesses.

Determine the appropriate authorities. Call the police. Contact Child Protective Services (CPS). Report elder abuse to Adult Protective Services (APS). Contact Human Resources to report workplace bullying. Share your documentation.
