Take control of your future! Toxic relationships can be extremely harmful, and if you don’t recognize and overcome co-dependency, there’s a risk of moving from one destructive relationship to another due to unconscious motives. Leaving an abuser is often accompanied by a long period of emotional and physical exhaustion—this is only natural, because during such relationships you lose the sense of your own “self.” This is your chance to begin a new, brighter future. This book will help you put everything in its place, realize that the problem is not you, but the person who undermines your life. You were not taught to choose a partner correctly and evaluate their qualities. No one told you that love doesn’t need to be begged for or proven. With constant patience and selfless love, you only support your tormentor. It’s time to choose a different path and remind yourself that justice is possible only for someone who has inner strength and self-love. It’s time to understand that your life—especially your personal life—depends on you. You have the power and must protect yourself on your own.
