Toxic Friendship: It is said that a true friend is a medicine for every disease, but if the medicine is taken beyond the limit then it becomes poison. Experts call it a 'toxic friendship'. The whole college used to give the example of Kavita and Shubhi's friendship. Both were companions of each other's happiness and sorrow. But gradually Shubhi started claiming ownership over the poem. Shubhi started interfering in everything from college to Kavita's personal life. The matter reached such an extent that Kavita started living under tension and within a short time insects got into the sweet relationship. A friend like Shubhi comes or can come into everyone's life. In the language of psychology, it is called 'toxic friendship'. But how to know that friendship has become toxic and if it has happened then what is the way to get out of it?
Identification of toxic friendship
When the peace of your life starts getting disturbed directly or indirectly because of a friend.
When there is more fear in the mind than love for a friend and most of your time is spent in persuading him.
When a friend is cheating or using you.
When you have to depend on your friend for every little work and your confidence starts to wane.
Don't have the courage to speak your mind to your friend.
Instead of being partners, friends started becoming owners.
What is the solution?
Avoid extremes of anything, be it love, care, or resentment. Such friendship is suffocating. If there is an excess of any of these, then understand that the relationship is about to end. In such a situation, slowly back away. Show some sense in ending the friendship. Instead of ending the relationship by fighting, it is better to take your step back slowly. The person in front will also understand your rude behavior and your mental peace will also be maintained. Also, be firm.
If you want to get out of a toxic friendship, then you have to keep your heart a little strong, because you may try to make everything normal by forgiving the other person once, but when it happens again and again, then you are in such a situation. Control yourself. Close all communication channels yourself.
If the problem has increased too much, then take the help of family members. If your friend is cheating and ignoring you, then understand that friendship is only in name. Do not try to carry on such a relationship unnecessarily, as it will make you emotionally weak.
