What to do in a Toxic Relationship?
When you are in a relationship with someone, you may not be aware of physical sensations. Your mind is full of thoughts, confusion, and doubts. Yet, as you try to understand your partner, you may not realize what is going on with your body signals. Some signals that your body gives you when you are in a toxic relationship are the following:
1. Unexplained body aches or sudden headaches.
2. Stomach pains, upset stomach, or stomach issues.
3. Feeling nauseous, queasy, or wanting to vomit when you are near the person.
4. Feeling sensations of things crawling all over your body.
5. Feeling tired, low energy, and a nervous cough.
As well as feelings of wanting to cry, fear, and sadness when you are with that person. These are just a few signs that the body gives you when you are in a bad relationship. Over time those body signals might become chronic the longer you are in that relationship. First, be aware of your physical sensations. Second, notice when the body signals occur.
Ask yourself why you want to continue being in the relationship. Often, the reasons you give yourself are not enough to be in a negative area with your partner. Communicate with your partner how you feel. If your partner does not want to listen to you, evaluate your relationship. Seek professional help as a couple to help express what each other feels.
If it does not work, have some time apart from your partner for your mental and physical health. Perhaps, your partner needs some time alone. Moreover, a partner can be too stressed out due to long hours of work or family reasons. However, if your partner is addicted to alcohol, substances, or pornography; It is best to seek professional help from a medical doctor, psychologist, and couple counseling. Yet, if you tried everything to help your partner it might be better to end the hostile relationship.
Additionally, if there is physical, verbal, and violent abuse in the relationship; Leave your abusive partner for your safety. Never continue being with someone for not wanting to be alone, as a habit, or as an emotional attachment. Therefore, listen to your instincts and physical sensations. As well as seeking medical help for your body signals. Below are links to physical sensations and the hotline for National Domestic Violence.
