Cutting Ties: Why You Must Leave Now
Steps to cut ties
1. Reflect on your decision: Take the time to reflect on your decision to cut ties. Consider the impact it will have on your life and whether it is the right choice for you, not them.
2. Set boundaries: Once you have made the decision to leave, cut ties, block and or remove them or yourself from contact, it is important to set clear boundaries. Communicate your boundaries to the other person and stick to them.
3. Seek support: Cutting ties can be difficult due to feeling obligated or that you are a quitter in some way, so it is important to seek support from friends, family, yourself or a therapist. Surround yourself with people who uplift and encourage you during this time.
4. Focus on self-care: Take care of yourself during this transition. Engage in activities that bring you joy and practice self-care regularly.
5. Stay strong: Cutting ties may not be easy, but it is necessary for your well-being. Stay strong and remind yourself of the reasons why you made this decision.
