The Spectrum of Toxic Behavior explores the wide range of harmful behaviors that often go unnoticed — from overt cruelty to subtle emotional manipulation.
While society tends to focus on obvious cases of toxicity, this book reveals how hidden patterns — like passive aggression, guilt-tripping, emotional blackmail, and performative kindness — can be just as damaging over time.
Through real-world examples, psychological insights, and clear frameworks, Samuel Porter helps readers recognize early warning signs, navigate complex social dynamics, and protect their mental and emotional health without becoming cynical.
Expect thoughtful breakdowns of covert toxicity, overt abuse, systemic group dysfunctions, and the fine line between healthy conflict and emotional sabotage.
The Spectrum of Toxic Behavior is a practical, empowering guide for anyone seeking to build healthier relationships, set better boundaries, and escape the hidden traps of manipulation and control.
