Stalking generally refers to a course of conduct directed at a specific person that involves repeated visual or physical proximity; nonconsensual communication; verbal, written, or implied threats; or a combination of these actions that would cause a reasonable person to feel fear. Like domestic violence, stalking is a crime of power and control. Stalking between intimate partners is widespread and often associated with lethal abuse. Victims of stalking may experience anxiety, insomnia, social dysfunction, and severe depression at a higher prevalence than the general population.
