Almost everyone has experienced the situation in their life when they have had questions about their relationships or when they are completely satisfied with the one. However, an emotionally exhausting relationship can have an impact on our mental health in ways we may not have realized at first.
We sometimes find ourselves in relationships that make us unhappy more often than they make us happy, they often put us in tensed situations, situations that we know are not right in our hearts but yet hold power over us. However, moving on is the ultimate and final thing one can do when we are not happy with a situation or a relationship? It’s hard to move on from a person whom you considered to be the source of joy, your happiness but at the same time its pity that we give pain to ourselves and disturb our mental health for that one person who is not anymore attached to you.
First of all let us know the signs that we are having a toxic relationship that is affecting our mental health:
-
Feeling constant stress
When you or your partner believes that the relationship has become a source of stress, you start feeling like something is wrong, dear friends it’s time to seriously think about it. This is certainly a wake-up call either both of you need to discuss over this or give each other sometime alone to feel the importance of each other.
-
Your partner is trying to avoid you
The best way to identify a toxic relationship is to observe the pattern your partner remains in contact with you. If your partner is trying to avoid you either through telephonic conversation or denying meeting you, its better you also take a strict action. There is no benefit of forcing someone to talk to you or be in your contact if he/she really doesn’t wants to be. Disconnect the connection straight forward until your partner realize the same.
-
When you have to lower your self- respect to earn the relationship
There is no benefit of earning a relationship on the cost of your self- respect. If you have to keep your self-respect at stake to get your love back it is better you move on. And something like this is happening in your relationship too, that means you are having a toxic relationship.
Ways to overcome a bad relationship
-
Accept that the relationship was toxic and was not good for you
The best way to get out of a bad relationship is to accept that it was not good for you, and the almighty did not wanted you to suffer more in a toxic relationship. Remembering what happened in the past with the relationship is quite daring however it’s good to look on the flaws of the relationship so the next time you don’t commit the same mistake, and don’t give “above all” type importance to anyone else except you.
-
Let your emotions come out
It’s obvious to be in sea of emotions when you feel your relationship is no more your cause of happiness. Don’t stop your emotions, let them out in the ways they are coming either through tears, oversleeping, or frustration (but however; frustration must not be dangerous), if you wish to live alone then do so but at the end bring your emotions out, share your feelings with your close friends, stand near a mirror and accept the mistakes you did in your relationship this will help you to become a better person and heal yourself soon.
-
Get more closer to almighty
At the end, dear there is no one except the almighty who will love you selflessly and will always be with you without any terms and conditions. Try to read spiritual books or books related to the religion or god you follow, this is the best time when you feel that “whatever the god does, does it for right”. Let the spiritual thinking come inside you, continue prayers for as more as you can, listen to spiritual songs, these steps will surely help you come out all the problems of your life, and will develop you into a positive person
