Worried you are in an unsafe and toxic relationship? What could be the signs, and when should you leave?
Toxic relationships don't always start off toxic. When a person is vulnerable or already in a situation where they aren't strong mentally, they are easier to take advantage of. Relationship abuse is when your partner has patterns of bad behavior to take advantage of your mind, body, and your property. They might make things physical, or it might be mentally. Things like grabbing, throwing things, pushing, name calling, telling you who you can and can't hangout with, telling you what you can and can't wear, all are signs that you should either address with them, or get help whether its from a trusted adult or one of the HOTLINES above. If your partner is manipulating you into feeling like everything is your fault and you are a terrible person, that is toxic and manipulation takes huge part in a unsafe, toxic relationship.
