Even as difficult as it is to have toxic people in our lives sometimes it cannot be avoided. For instance if we have a close family member that would fall into our topic of discussion, we must learn to love them  with an undying love. The more that we can learn and choose to love,  the less we will have to heal from  feelings  guilt and shame that accompany arguing and conflicts. If your having trouble dealing with someone and would like to see the situation change, remember you have the power to make a change in your own life. Ask yourself this question, “what can I do today to make tomorrow different?”

I have trouble with toxic people

As I am just coming off of almost loosing my temper, I have realized once again that I have trouble dealing with toxic people. Here is my definition of what a toxic person is. To me it is someone who I know is bad for me emotionally but yet I continue to keep them in my life. This particular situation that I have just had was  with someone who is really good at making comments that will cause me to respond in negative ways. I have to be self controlled when dealing with them and always on my guard.
This means that if I do something towards someone that is out of line, I should go to them and admit to my wrong doing and ask for their forgiveness. I have no control over how they will respond and need to accept however they react when I offer an amend. If I have an expectation of them then I am setting myself up for appointment. This is called keeping my side of the street clean. If they want to keep their side full of the garbage of forgiveness, bitterness and anger then that's their choice to live within an emotional and spiritual mess.

How to heal from dealing with toxic people

Toxic friends are hard to deal with
As previously mentioned, I attend support group meetings regularly to help me heal from dealing with toxic people. One of the greatest lessons that I have learned in life is that,  I can start over anytime. Even if I slip and let my guard down on self control, I can start over 100 times a day if necessary. Doing this is just a point of reference where we say, “ I am going to put the past behind and make the best of this day and this particular situation that I am struggling with.” I must remember to be kind to myself because I am aware of who I am and what my personality is like. Another way that I have found to heal from dealing with difficult people is by letting go and letting God. I put may faith in Christ and trust that he is working all things for the good in my life. I also remember that he desires to heal and help rather than condemn and tear apart. An important lesson to take not of is the importance of keeping my side of the street clean.

How to deal with toxic people

Here are a few suggestions on how to deal with toxic people:

1) Remember that it takes two people to argue: By removing myself quickly from a situation where an argument is starting, I can better protect my emotions.

2) By attending support groups: This is a great way to constantly feed my mind and spirit as well as stay in touch with the difficulties I have relating to certain types of people. With every meeting that I attend,  I am reminded to zip my lip in the face of opposition from others.

3) Letting go of situations: It's important to understand that I do not have any control of someone's actions or reactions for a matter. As much as I may try to control someone, they are on their own destiny. I must remember to say things only once because one of my character defects is to try to manipulate others into what I want for their lives, rather than just letting go and allowing them to be responsible for their journey.

4) Read literature: One of the great ways that I have found in dealing with people,  who are like opposing magnets when I am around them, is by reading books or articles on the Internet.
There are many types of literatures with daily reading that can help guide my path each day, If I will just take the time to find and read them. 

5) Exercise: Find something physical to do in the way of exercise when you feel your tension level rising
