This audiobook is narrated by a digital voice.
Have you been deeply hurt by a family member?
Has your family, which should have loved, nourished, and protected you, inflicted traumas that still affect your life today?
Are you struggling daily to repair the damage they caused?
Some people are fortunate to be born into families with whom they love spending time. These members are compassionate towards each other, communicate their needs effortlessly, and staunchly support one another. Conversely, for others, a simple incoming call from a family member can be a source of dread.
A 'toxic family' describes a family with dysfunctional relationships harmful to the emotional and psychological health of its members. These families are characterized by behaviors and dynamics such as emotional and psychological abuse, manipulation, denial, minimization of problems, distortion of reality, and unequal power and control.
When others perceive your family as nice, yet behind closed doors, they reveal their true colors, the discrepancy can be jarring.
This manual is recommended if your family:
The inner child within you may hope for change, but the reality is they may never do so.
Take action now, before it's too late.
Breaking free from the toxic grip of family members is a winding path, but it is the best gift you can give to your life and your mental health.
