I needed to hear this so bad. 2024 is the year I walk away. I am tired of living my life for family and friends. I regret waisting 40 years of my life on them.😢
Take care of yourself and your own needs and stop trying to please others….I’ve learned that most people are not grateful for what you do for them and some will take advantage of you kindness
You have lost 40 years but you are not going to lose what life you have left. Not the rest of it. Pity the people who never walk away. You’ve got it over them. And there are plenty that will never walk away. I am in a situation I should have walked away from 20 years ago. I have been sad that I stayed and tolerated toxicity. And sad that I did not have the self esteem or confidence to do better sooner.
Amen to that! But don't regret it just take it as a lesson learnt and an empowerment tool. The walking away for me has been a real tag of war and it's still ongoing with some family but it's a worthwhile process....good luck
As a man who only very recently found the resolve to walk away from a long term relationship, this video resonated immensely . My partner was not cruel or hateful and had many wonderful qualities. I was however living her life, saying yes to avoid conflict, begging repeatedly for an emotional and physical intimacy that never came. There is no hate for there were times of great joy and connection. Find the strength and listen to your inner voice but walk away with love and gratitude as hate and anger only burns.
I want to be happy for you and your newfound freedom, but I can not. You seem extremely selfish and weak in character. Your words convey how wonderful & loving your partner is & has been for 40 years!! How sad that it’s taken you that long to grow a backbone. You were living her life?!? What does that mean ? We’re you held against your will?!? My heart breaks for her, not you! You are weak.
It's the only way to a peaceful life. Around 15yrs ago I rid myself of everyone accept my daughter. Best thing I ever did. My daughter & me have a very strong bond...& that's all I need. Other people just used to let me down, disappoint me.
A lifetime for me and i’m 24. I’m not bad looking but it’s hard for me. Recently got reported by several girls for crimes i didn’t do. Now I have to find the strength of walking away without any retaliation university/court action. And i don’t even know why they did it. I don’t even know why they lied 😂
This exactly describes my job situation. It was so toxic, my colleagues stays for 10-15 years. There is no way I can survive that long in a very gossipy, toxic workplace. Not even the boss can do anything about it. ( Chinese company). I was so afraid to leave, I go home feeling very depressed. I don’t normally get depressed. Finally I gave my two weeks notice and yesterday was my last day. I feel very free and happy. I’m starting a new job next Monday . It feels great not afraid to way away and take a chance.
This is exactly what my past Work Place was like. I became so nervous, upset, stressed out. It was so Toxic. We all need money, but I was able to find something else .
I lost a job during covid and I survived. I will never allowed myself to suffer in a toxic work environment again...even if it means driving uber, doing doordash, or working multiple jobs.
I definitely needed to hear this. Just ended a 9 year relationship after my ex cheated on me. I blame myself for not having the courage to leave years ago. She showed who she was about a year in, yet I stayed out of the fear of being alone. It’s a lesson learned, though. I will never allow myself to be in another toxic situation like that ever again. This situation has taught me to be a stronger, more self-aware person. I trust that everything happens discussion and that life is leading me in the right direction.
This is so true but I have chosen peace over relationships and my own mental health . Been alone is ok it’s when u r around ppl who make u feel even more alone that break u . I’m ok bc at the end of the day God is truly all you need ..
@@johndean958I truly admire people like you who have found the strength and resolve to do such a radical thing like to walk away. I feel the need at times to do that too, but have not found the courage and desire to go to such an extreme as yet.
It's great you deserve freedom.. I've had the same issues always used to put others first. I'm glad that I am sick and tired of people pleasing. I have walked away. I have a newfound freedom over my life and my time. ✌️ @gabrielletanner5339
We should never feel bad about it took so long for us to wake up ,spiritually awakened👁 from toxic family members life is a journey not a race enjoy the process God in the universe chose us to wake up🙏🏽💃🌹 living my best life no contact
When you walk away, and hope that the other person will change, than it goes wrong. When you walk away to enhance/develope your self-respect, it's always OK. Do not regret the 'lost time', in which you were staying in a relationship, because you have needed that time to come to this decision. Live is a journey, and a practice.
@@johndean958me too both of my adult biological children have turned away I am the scapegoat The whistleblower. The authentic biological mother both adult children were conceived by two different sperm donors in a fertility clinic 47 and 44 years ago my ex-husband turned the children against me when ever he was with them while they were growing up. 😢 He ambushed them 4 years ago and told them that he was not their biological father..... They have known for 4 years and they didn't tell me they know the truth. 😢 So now 47 year old adult has poisoned my 12 year old granddaughter over the past several years so now my granddaughter is cruel and abusive 💔 and my adult son with my 3 year old grandchild has followed the same path of narcissistic personality disorder. That his non biological narcissistic father and his brainwashed sister. Have chosen. Stabbing me in the back in the back on Christmas Eve 😢 and the final discard. Came on New years Eve ... So I have lost both grandchildren. I am on a long journey but I'm gathering my strength from this video and I wanted to just share this out I am a biological mother who is children have turned their backs because their father is angry that I chose sperm donors. 😢 It's a declaration of my life as a Christian I will survive 🙏
Thank you so much! I find most everyone does not relate to me. I believe a life lived through The Holy Spirit and God’s Grace and Truth. Nothing is more rewarding than this and I grieve the souls of men that do not know.
I’m in this rn. Walking away from a toxic situation. I hold myself accountable for staying so long. When times was rough, he is no where to be found. God will continue to give you the lesson if you do not pass the test ❤❤❤❤❤
On the 16/12/23 I walked away from a toxic environment from the workplace, I was afraid that it would be hard for me, I was happy to leave, I felt like a weight was lifted from my shoulder. Even though I'm now job hunting I'm happy I left when I did. Thank you very much.
I'm in the same situation... Never felt freer, like a burdensome load lifted off my shoulders. May we both find something supremely better than what we faced previously 🙏🏽... and very soon.
Thanks I'm glad that I am not the only one struggling it feel-good to have walked away. New subscriber I will check out your past videos. Thank you for this valuable video.
External factors no longer dictate my internal state.! So powerful. Once one really understands ,embraces and lives that you've known the key to a peaceful life!
Thanks to this video. Since 2018, I had already walked away from the toxic "friends" I knew since my teenage years. And last year we had a get together, I then used that occasion to tell them why I walked away...But instead of apologizing, they justified their actions. It is then I felt that i made the right decision. Thanks to Stoicism and more power to the content creators of this channel...👏❤
Change no circumstance. Change me. . I am not saying its easy just worth it. God grant me the serenity to accept the things I can not change. Courage to change the things I can . And the wisdom to know the difference. Amen-Serenity Prayer , Blessings
Exactly, walking away from toxicity is an empowering act of self-care, not defeat. The emphasis on recognizing toxic situations, the strength in saying 'no', and the journey towards rediscovering personal purpose is truly inspiring. It's a call to align our actions with our deepest values and aspirations. Thanks for sharing.
Thank you for this great reading! I am in a toxic relation and tired from all the hurts and pain,and to be a Peoplepleaser! it's time to take care off my own needs and Dreams. Walking away is the path i willll take to live my own life and not to be lived by others that's the 💪in me to take another path for luck and free🕊dom to be save again. And MOVE in silence
Yes. Good for you. My health finally started to fail in a serious way and I knew that I had no choice as I couldnt keep putting up with the Stress. Nobody wanted to change. Take care. Its been about 2months for me now and this Video helped me know I have done the right thing.
When I discovered the term trauma bonding it described everything I had been put through for 37 years from my then wife who is now my exwife. She is a monster who almost killed me via high blood pressure. If there is anyone going through these dynamics, Understand this one very important bit of information, Things Will NEVER CHANGE! Other than you you'll lose yourself your health will diminish and you'll throw your life away for someone who doesn't give a mouses pin hole about you. If at all possible get out as fast as you can. It's been three years since I broke free and my BP is back to normal, Thank You Jesus!
I had to walk away from so many in my life, it's the hardest thing to do, to walk away from the people we love the most, but sometimes, we need to make a stand for our own integrity. We must always honour and be completely loyal to ourselves. and the truth we live by
The universe has a way of sending messages to us as a reminder of what we need to do. I'm stuck in a situation that I know that I have to get out of, but allowing fear to hold me back. Time to take a leaf of faith.
THANK YOU FOR THESE PRECIOUS WORDS.....WORTH MORE THAN THEIR WEIGHT IN GOLD! I WANDERED LONLEY AS A CLOUD, WHENCE ALL AT ONCE, I CAME UPON A HOST OF GOLDEN DAFFODILS!!!!!!!!!
I recently did the same as you and listening to this has made me stronger that I have absolutely done the right thing. I had gone along with it all for 45 years....But my health also told me to move.
This is what i needed to hear tonight ive curently decided to put the bottle and substance use down once again and am changing everything for me this time i everyone very much , i just cant do it anymore ive spent my hole life saying yes im 43 and have been toxic to myself and everyone my hole life alighning my self with my true vallues finding my Aunthentic self thank you for this Video 2024 im allowing myself to say NO thanks again
Good for you. You are still very young. I have waited till I am now 67years old. And its been 2months now and this Video has strengthened me beyond anything I have tried to listen to and read. Take care.
What you discussed is exactly happening in our church. The pastor, his assistants and preachers who graduated in the Bible school run by our church specialize in criticizing the members almost every preaching. Undermining the services of members in order to lift up the image of pastors and preachers. Instead of focusing the preaching to God only, turning the message into scolding of members in an attempt to make members guilty and as a result very easy for members to give their money.
Walked away 3 weeks ago from a long distance relationship best thing I ever did you can love and miss a person but if they don’t see your value then its time to walk away…. Feel so free ❤ and happy focus on myself and people who truly value me like my son and close family.

I was in a toxic relationship for 10 years - both being codependent on one another. I’m so grateful it’s ended by a CPO mandating zero contact. It was the only thing that allowed us both to move on to healthier options.
I knew my family was holding me back now that I’ve left them behind I really feel like I can grow. I’m going to be able to find myself without the extra baggage. Thanks to this video I’m finally free 👍
I started this behavior in my late Teens. I have had to do this repeatedly in the last 60 years. Sometimes I lapse and forget whose Life is the Most Important, and regret it later when I do take the Reins of my Life away from Others! Today, I have done it again, and it is so inspiring to get your Life back to your sphere and away from Toxic, Psychic Vampires! Good Advice!
The way he describes the toxic person is 100% me. I was the toxic person in the relationship. My partner finally got the strength to walk away. Good on him. Now I’m free to work on my insecurities and behaviors so that if I get into another relationship I’m ready and stable To be fair he drank too much, did drugs and gambled. Tried being there for him but over the course of 2 years (emotionally and financially) it drained me and then I started putting him down and making him feel worthless and shit. Of course I love bombed him too as I was scared to be alone. Put on 15kgs due to taking on his unhealthy lifestyle. But now we’ve both had enough. It’s my time to improve
I walked away from 11 year marriage. It took me 10 years to trust another men into my heart. Recently, my ex fiancé broke my heart with deceit & betrayal. Again, another painful decision to walk away. Purpose is to Alchemist painful experiences into serving the Light! Unconditional love starts with self-love🥷🌈 To Live, To Love, To Thrive✨🧚🏻
I walked away from someone who said I was his best friend after I discovered it was a lie. When trust in a relationship is broken it can rarely be repaired. It was a hard thing to do, but despite the hurt I still feel I believe it was the right thing to do. I am on the path to reconnecting to my authentic self, free and happy. By the way, having a strong faith is a key to recovering from any trial including a toxic relationship. And despite the pain experienced, there's always a lesson to be learned so we're better prepared for the next time.
I was being harassed with gossip and isolation in my recovery group for more than a year. One day a pretty girl sat next to me and I made her laugh, she thought I was funny. That pissed off the group of thirty people and three people spoke up and accused me of being a predator. Later I told them to produce a witness, they didn't because there are none. I finally decided to just walk away from those butt heads. I was getting more grief than healing so why stay? I don't get lonely, I like people but not toxic clowns.
I've never been able to overcome this exact situation. The only way I've been able to deal with it is by walking away. However , not sure if it made me feel better or worse.. I've found it difficult to deal with this situation, due to the fact that I loved this person.

My health made me realise about 1 month ago. I get so upset and have tried to help, but no one is listening. After 40 something years, walking away has made me feel so much better and I can see so much clearer now.

But now we’ve both had enough. It’s my time to improve
Peace
Yes I do walk into that Path it's very hard To deal with. Especially when you love a narcassist.😮
So! So! True! Spread your wings & fly! 💛😇💛
I walked away from 11 year marriage. It took me 10 years to trust another men into my heart. Recently, my ex fiancé broke my heart with deceit & betrayal. Again, another painful decision to walk away.

After 35 years and finally said NO! Bursted when I found he didn’t care about me for a long time!
It’s hard on me 😭😤
Keep going and stay strong!
I walked away from someone who said I was his best friend after I discovered it was a lie. When trust in a relationship is broken it can rarely be repaired. It was a hard thing to do, but despite the hurt I still feel I believe it was the right thing to do. I am on the path to reconnecting to my authentic self, free and happy. By the way, having a strong faith is a key to recovering from any trial including a toxic relationship. And despite the pain experienced, there's always a lesson to be learned so we're better prepared for the next time.

Fear , obligation and guilt are the most common tools used to control
I was being harassed with gossip and isolation in my recovery group for more than a year. One day a pretty girl sat next to me and I made her laugh, she thought I was funny. That pissed off the group of thirty people and three people spoke up and accused me of being a predator. Later I told them to produce a witness, they didn't because there are none.
I finally decided to just walk away from those butt heads. I was getting more grief than healing so why stay? I don't get lonely, I like people but not toxic clowns.

I walked away
Thank you
I've never been able to overcome this exact situation. The only way I've been able to deal with it is by walking away. However , not sure if it made me feel better or worse.. I've found it difficult to deal with this situation, due to the fact that I loved this person.
Such a great video 😊

Walking away is often matter of life and death, if people are so draining that you might even feel suicidal
My health made me realise about 1 month ago. I get so upset and have tried to help, but no one is listening. After 40 something years, walking away has made me feel so much better and I can see so much clearer now.
Thank you. , very well.
I will never walk away from those I love. Never ever
