6. If you have a healthy support system, talk to them
It is important to surround yourself with positive people who know you well and whom you can trust with serious issues. In moments of stress, reach out to them, expose your feelings, and allow them to provide you unbiased advice. Sometimes you won’t even need that much: just talking to someone, venting, and feeling that they hear you and care about you is enough to improve your well-being. If things get out of hand and you have the chance, seek out professional health and try to get in touch with a mental health counselor.7. Prioritize self-care
You should always be the number one person in your life, and this is not something selfish, this is not something narcissistic, but the truth is that you can’t help anyone or care for anyone if you don’t help and care for yourself in the first place. There are a lot of things involved in self-care, and some of them are quite simple – be alone, eat your favorite food, get some sunlight, take a long bath, drink a glass of wine or hydrate your hair. Be your best self, and remind yourself of who you are even through the tiniest things. This process will help you maintain your mental stability, making you more capable of handling stressful and toxic situations. And like we have stated before, if you need professional help to deal with your problems, do not hesitate to seek it. Being home with toxic people is not easy, but do not let yourself become toxic as well – there is no excuse for cruelty and toxicity. And if you ever slip, be sure to be the bigger person and apologize for your actions. Treat everyone with the same respect, empathy, and kindness that you would like to be treated with.- Advertisement -
