Ostracism - Being abused without a word being said

To be ostracised, excluded by others can be one of the most insidious forms of emotional abuse in the sense that the aggressors don't have to actually do anything except ignore their target. It can happen at work, in communities, friendship groups and even families.

In this video I outline what it is, the affects on someone's mental health and refer to research carried out by Professor Kipling D Williams.
