Hi!
Welcome to, or welcome back to Talks with Tia.
Today’s topic is: Toxic Relationships
(Part One)
What is a toxic relationship?
A toxic relationship is one that negatively affects your self esteem, mental health and general well-being.
There are many shapes and forms which they can take. As the signs, could be physically, emotionally and financially.
Usually, these toxic behaviours are a form of control. Although, most behaviours are stem from childhood or traumatic events/relationships.
Some examples of signs of a toxic relationship are; controlling behaviour, toxic communication and feeling unsupported/disrespected.
Negative emotions and conflicts are normal in any relationship, as we are all human and have our own feelings and beliefs. However, it is not okay, for your partner to feel ownership or make you feel less.
I’ve been in a number of toxic relationships in my life.
However, not all of them have been romantic.
Relationships with friends, family members and co-workers, have all come with toxicity . As I seem to attract those sorts of people.
These have all affected the way I am with people, how I view and behave in the world.
All of the toxic people, made me believe that the world was against me, that my life wasn’t worth living.
In the following blog posts, I will be breaking down toxic relationships into different topics.
Toxic relationships have been a big part of my life, so I have a lot of experience with them. As the discussion about them is so big/important to me, I thought I’d break them down into more detail.
I hope you enjoyed reading the first part of toxic relationships.
