How to get rid of it?

2. Fear
Submission/domination
Dishonesty
A toxic relationship is one that causes physical, mental or emotional harm.
The characteristics which define toxic relationships are:
Your sense of self-worth, happiness, and perspective on yourself and the outside world
are all contaminated by a toxic relationship.
A toxic person will go through life leaving a path of shattered relationships, broken
hearts, and broken people in their wake, but toxic relationships don't always end that
way simply because the person you fell for later turned out to be toxic.
Relationships may begin well, but as time goes on, negative emotions, a troubled past,
or unfulfilled desires may develop, contaminating the bond between people.

5. Overcoming Toxic Relationship
Even after getting out of a toxic
relationship, it is hard for individuals to
overcome the flashbacks completely.
Certain bad memories or habits stay
with the person for a while, which is
not healthy for their lifestyle. But there
are ways to overcome it completely.

6. When you need to, allow yourself to be sad and
experience your feelings. after allowing yourself
the time and space to experience all of your
necessary emotions. Your healing process may
take longer if you attempt to suppress your
feelings. The first step to beginning relationship
recovery is allowing yourself time and space to
feel and process your emotions.
Process your feelings

7. It might be very tempting to want to get in
touch with an ex-partner after going through a
toxic relationship, especially one that lasted a
long time. But it's frequently preferable to have
some space and avoid all communication. A
person can be dragged back into a poisonous
tango with the former partner if the
communication continues even after separation.
Avoid Reaching out

8. Expecting a final statement or an apology from the toxic
partner is generally not a good idea. Hoping to move on after
a closure will certainly put the toxic person in a position of
leverage over their partner.
Don’t Expect Closure

9. Surrounding oneself with positive people is the
best way to escape a horrible past. Family, friends,
a therapist, support groups, and others can all be
part of a support system. It may be very beneficial
to spend time with a person of trust. Toxic
relationships have a tendency to keep people
apart, so it would be good to get in touch with
long-lost friends.
Keep in touch with positive people

10. Writing about experiences in a private
notebook as a way to digest everything before
sharing it with others can be beneficial.
Speaking with a therapist or a trusted
friend/family member is the next stage of
opening up about the past and accepting it
gracefully.
Acceptance

11. Forgiveness is the best way to overcome a
disastrous past. It doesn’t matter if the other
person was eligible for forgiveness or not, the
mental peace matters most. While forgiveness
encourages you to evolve beyond who you
were, anger shrinks you from the inside.
Forgiveness

12. It's necessary to put your health and wellbeing first
when coping with any kind of toxic relationship. As
a result, if you're dealing with someone who saps
your happiness and vitality, think about getting rid
of them or, at the very least, cutting back on your
time spent with them. And seek immediate
assistance if you are the victim of physical or
emotional abuse.
