SIGNS OF A TOXIC RELATIONSHIP

-

A toxic relationship is“any relationship between people who don’t support each other,where there’s conflict and one seeks to undermine the other, where there’s competition,where there’s disrespect and a lack of cohesiveness.”

There are several types of toxic personalities you need to be aware of. Some of them may be worse than others, but all of them are ultimately people you need to remove from your social circles.

1. Lack of support

Your time together has stopped being positive or supportive of your goals.“Healthy relationships are based on a mutual desire to see the other succeed in all areas of life,” but when things turn toxic, every achievement becomes a competition. In other words, you don’t feel like they have your back. 

2. Controlling behaviors

Questioning where you are all the time or becoming overly upset when you don’t immediately answer texts are both signs of controlling behavior, which can contribute to toxicity in a relationship. In some cases, these attempts of control over you can be a sign of abuse (more on this later).

3. Lost relationships

You’ve stopped spending time with friends and family, either to avoid conflict with your partner or to get around having to explain what’s happening in your relationship. Alternatively, you might find your free time is wrapped up in dealing with your partner.

4. Lack of self-care

In a toxic relationship, you might let go of your usual self-care habits.You might withdraw from hobbies you once loved, neglect your health, and sacrifice your free time.

5. Constant stress

A normal amount of tension runs through every relationship, but finding yourself constantly on edge is an indicator that something’s off. This ongoing stress can take a toll on your physical and emotional health.
