Toxic people have a dark cloud following them wherever they go. I’ve had the opportunity to be around plenty of toxic people in my lifetime – it’s not fun. I will even admit that at my lowest point, I had transformed into a toxic person myself. I thank God for getting me to drop the victim lens that helps breed such nastiness, and His loving guidance as I’ve worked hard on turning things around. If you let this type of individual get the best of you, they can bring you down into the depths of despair right along side them. The old saying is true – misery loves company. Thankfully, there are strategies that you can employ that will help you deal with toxic people and keep your stress levels to a minimum.
