Toxic Relatives. How to Stop Their Influence on Your Life and Preserve Yourself

Practicing psychologist Dr. Sherri Campbell offers guidance for those who want to break free from toxic family relationships and improve their lives.

Toxic family violence has a double bottom. The first level of abuse is the actual violence from toxic family... members, while the second is the denial of others that something abnormal is happening in the family. Loving someone does not necessarily mean having a relationship with them, just as forgiveness does not always mean reconciliation. A significant part of healing comes with the acknowledgment that toxic relationships exist, which destroy a person from the inside and prevent them from living fully. This book is a remarkable account of how sometimes it is necessary to sever ties with toxic relatives to finally breathe freely.

From this book, you will learn:

— how parents, adult children, siblings, grandparents, and other relatives exhibit their toxicity;
— the difference between marginalized and cruel family members;
— how to break ties with people who make you unhappy;
— what it really means to have no contact with close relatives.

And only when you sever these relationships, will you gain the ability to love your family members from a distance, knowing that you are no longer in danger. You will realize how to love yourself and fundamentally change your life for the better!
