This week, Grace and Brendan discuss their experiences with toxic relationships and how they aren't limited to those of a romantic nature.
“A toxic relationship refers to a detrimental and unhealthy connection characterized by behaviors that undermine one’s well-being, such as emotional manipulation, disrespect, control, and a lack of support.” --- Olivia Guy-Evans, MSc & Saul Mcleod, PhD (Toxic Relationships: Signs, Types, and How to Cope - Simply Psychology)
"Toxic relationships are based on conflict, competition, and the need to control. Signs of a toxic relationship include jealousy, blame, and gaslighting. Therapy, as well as self-care and connecting with others, can help you heal and move forward.
-Sherry Gaba, LCSW
