Abuse is abuse period. 

Abuse is an abuse be it emotionally, mentally or psychologically, and physically. When a person is emotionally abusive, this person was emotionally abused as a child. These are all learned behaviours and it is the same thing with someone that physically abuses someone else. It is the same thing as someone who is a narcissist or a psychopath and again these are learned behaviour in childhood. People who are born with a severe mental illness is very small. Children who are living in such households pick up such abusive behaviours from their parents or siblings or the people who raised them or whoever they were around with they might not have seen all of these tactics but they saw enough to learn what emotional abuse is and now they go about life thinking it is normal.
