Boundaries, boundaries, boundaries! These toxic individuals are drawn to people who have no boundaries or lower their boundaries for them.

[jackedkerouac]

I swear people who create drama live in a different reality. Who has the time or inclination to be childish and petty? They always have a snappy, rehearsed comeback if you stand up for yourself too. I'm exhausted even thinking of the energy it takes to live like that.

[leostitcher]

It's very difficult to get away from a toxic person when they are family.

I no longer ignore my gut. I ended it with the man I was dating last week. He waited until our first trip away from my home to become impatient and critical. I asked for an apology, he refused. I told him we were not a match. He is leaving me gifts and writing me letters as if I want it and expect it. I want him to leave me alone forever. Once someone shows me their true colours I now believe them.

Did 5 years at a job that ruined my mental health and 10 years later I am still recovering from that place

[grungepants]

Everyone needs to develop a better relationship with their gut feeling. I assume everyone has gut feelings about people and situations, that they ignore. Our brain falls for the charm of a person or we lie to ourselves and say we are just being paranoid but our body always knows when something is not quite right beneath the surface. The gut feeling is powerful.

[mobutter]

He’s so right! You can never engage! Observe, don’t absorb!!!

[RippleDrop.]

Deadness in their eyes is SO SO *SPOT ON* . They never truly connect with their eyes with anyone because they live in a reality where only them really exist.

[lifeisshort]

The 2 worst things you can do is waste time worrying and waste time with toxic people. I died last year on the operating table and through a great save bh doctors I came back. Whilst I was on otherside I was really angry that I wasted my life on worrying and toxic people anc environments. Don't make my mistakes. Life is short, seek, live, and flourish in non-toxic environments and people. I don't want you to be angry for wasting your life.

[amothergoddess]

YOU CAN TELL PRETTY EASILY THEY ARE ONLY INTERESTED IN PUTTING YOU DOWN, TELLING WHAT TO DO, SHAMING YOU, ENVYING YOU, AND ACTING WITH A DISGUSTING SUPERIOR ATTITUDE THAT MAKES YOU FEEL LIKE A LOWLY SNIVELLING SERVANT! IMPORTANT TO REMEMBER THEY DON'T THINK LIKE YOU, NO EMPATHY AND LOW CONSCIENCE AND THEY ARE SCHEMERS!

[liam.]

If I feel drained or low energy around a person more than 10% of the time then I see them as toxic for me to be around

[decipher]

Being on the lookout for narcissists just fuels my hyper-vigilance. For me what works is focussing on meeting my needs, resolving any inner conflict and showing myself undying love. Narcissists than automatically stay away because they have no power over me. This works better because it relieves the tension that ‘keeping an eye out’ actually rather enhances.

[prosimulate]

Toxic people may only be 5% of the population but you meet them 100% of the time.

[HanzotheSalamander.]

Before you detect toxic people, be sure you are not toxic also

[Tony_Kaku]

Family members can be toxic too, dont let them use the excuse of "but were family, you have to forgive".

[ariahlea]

Non verbal queues don’t lie!! Don’t ignore your gut feeling and do not take anything personally that they say to especially when it comes to emotional/mental games and drama. Thank you Robert ✨🙌🏽

[nccamsc]

My experience last summer was just surreal. Hiring manager polite at interviewing, pushy at work from day one and outright abusive within a month. He was extremely insecure 43 year old who tried to bully everyone he thought had less power than him. Lying, bullying, harassment, backhanded tricks, hiding information, forging records, destroying records - nothing was off the table.

[newtonmoon]

In some cases, also the face can be unanimated. One of the most courageous things one can do is to walkaway from toxicity no matter where in private or professional life.

[staceybluer]

I truly think you have to have learned the hard way with this. Personally, I was late diagnosed autistic. A lot of the red flags registered at a gut level but I had come to distrust myself socially. The benefit of the doubt became my modus operandi due to naivety and inability to fully understand social interactions. 'maybe it's me', 'why would someone lie about/exaggerate things?' etc. Hard to admit to myself a lack of theory of mind in this capacity as I have relied on studying people as a way of getting by. This made me a magnet for toxic people. I have a total of 2 close friends now in my 30's. Ex partners, friends and even family have taught me tough lessons. I never could have imagined someone would be envious of me, but it turns out people can envy things you don't even recognise you possess. Thanks for your work, very informative in navigating what feels like a minefield.

This is a wonderful video. I am 63 years old and I am only now learning how to shed my life of toxic people. I was a social worker for 40 years and I tend to attract people who need to be rescued or who have problems. I genuinely feel sorry for them but then I find myself being manipulated by them. Thank you so much for this video and thank you everyone for your comments! They are all helpful!
