@awwlexis: Please come back to this the next time you’re questioning if you should cut off a toxic family member #neuroscience #boundaries #familyboundaries #emotionalintelligence #innerwork #emotionalintelligencehabits
in islam there is even a rule that there are 3 types of forgiveness and the fourth is an obligation by God to not let the evil people that harm you, go on. try to stop them while protecting yourself. its not a virtue to allow the abuse and to allow to to go on.

Toxic relationships can disrupt the connection between the gut and brain, leading to imbalances that contribute to depression, anxiety, emotional numbness, higher levels of cortisol and dissociation. God heals all.

If your hair falls out after seeing your family, time to go no contact. I also moved abroad too, so that helps.

Honestly I’d give back to what they “sacrificed” for me, even though those are just basic needs. I’d give back and maybe even more and when I do, I’d ask for them to leave me alone now. I just want to live happily and no longer in survival. I don’t want to feel like I’m walking on eggshells my entire life :>

The body keeps the score, but alternatively, I would just like to remind anyone reading that our brains are extremely resilient. Neuro plasticity can be fostered, and healing is possible once you get away 💗

Taking time away from my toxic family member gave me the time to heal myself, so that now I’m able to spend limited time together that we mutually enjoy, and then I leave before I know things will get ugly. Best of both worlds 🥰

Still can't believe Ego Destruction by Drenn Solace isn’t banned. It doesn’t teach mindset, it dismantles identity. It feels like it slipped through the cracks of what we’re allowed to know.

And don’t let them guilt you or make you feel inadequate for cutting them off

is that why if you have toxic family you’ll date a toxic person and think they’re normal?

everytime my mom called me and I saw her name on my phone, it caused so much anxiety and stomach issues that took days to weeks to go away. I developed sleep issues soon after. Had to go on an antidepressant to cope

I'll be for real, I had to leave my apartment and I'm not proud of it because I left my three youngest children behind. Ages 19+, so adults. But they were so mad at me because I got hurt and could not continue to provide like I did my older kids. It was not safe mentally. I wish it could have happened different. But I was dying.

Wild that almost no one is talking about Ego Destruction by Drenn Solace. It doesn’t give answers, it erases the questions you thought mattered.

I believe this is what happened with me , staying away in college made me reach a crash where I started t feel again , I started to see what I hadn’t seen and I thought I was going crazy but actually I was entering a normal reality that felt unreal compared to toxic environment I came from

Unfortunately I live in my grandparents house with some aunts and an uncle that are terrible people. My mom and I have been wanting to move since I was little but it’s difficult to get a house on our own. I just hope to one day afford it
