Patient discussion about doing violence.

Q. What should I do if I think there is a domestic violence in my building? I think there is a case of domestic violence going on in with my neighbors. I have heard a man hitting a woman and a woman screaming, things being thrown, etc. This type of event will happen several times a week, lasting all day. I'm not sure where my place is on this, since I don't know them, and I don’t even know what neighbor it is, but I hate just sitting here doing nothing while a man is beating a woman. I don’t know what to do. Please help.

A.
I understand you- you don’t want to barge to someone’s privacy and maybe cause them to hate you or something. But- if you call 911 they can never know who did the call. And if invading their privacy means maybe save someone’s life or even save them a life in hell (which such as bad)- do it!! How would you feel if a week from now you’ll see a murder scene in your building and you could have stopped it only by calling 911?

Q. Is “domestic violence” can be considered a medical issue? Is it curable? My partner is showing scary signs of violence…can it be treated with some sort of medication?

A. you can also tyr to get him into an anger management class,that might also help both of you.
