The worst thought that never leaves us living in a toxic family is that what if we end up becoming toxic people ourselves?
We do not want to treat people the way we have been treated throughout our life. That is why we keep monitoring our behavior toward others and sometimes we start suspecting our actions and concerns because we no longer remain confident about ourselves. Who takes responsibility for this cruelty? The answer is obvious. No one. It will be better if we start to focus on the solution, not on the problem. The sooner your brain gets this, the better you are equipped to tackle it.
Maintain emotional distance
People will tell youâ Family that eats together, stays together but no one is ever going to tell you that members of a family who interrupt every basic right of yours are toxic to your every aspect of health. This is why it is important to make emotional distance from them because, in the end, you are always going to be on your own.
Choose self-respect
Never fool yourself into thinking these people will regret it later, no. They can not respect themselves, and can not proceed with what to do in their lives, neither they will respect your choices. Be it the songs you listen to, the dresses you wear, and of course friends you make.
Avoid being around them as much as possible
When you maintain physical distance from the people who have been nothing but toxic, you save yourself from getting directly hurt. Also, the smartest way to ward off negative people from your energy field.
Don't waste your time
When you try to make them understand what its be like to tolerate them, you hit your head with a giant wall. It will be better if you do not waste your precious time with them. Speak when it is necessary to, and answer in limited and calculated words. This way you will save yourself from unhealthy arguments.
Always remember you will sail through
The option to choose what you do not want will always be open. You will have a choice even in your worst situations.
Do not let them win by seeing you behaving like them. You are better and you know this.
