Withdrawal...

"You just have to Stop"
This is soo easy for the person who is not Addicted to advise. The healthy person can see through the chaos and rationally decide that YOU should just leave someone or something alone....

It is like literally holding your hand over a fire passionately declaring that "this time" you will not get burned....

"Rabid Hot Mess" people are so difficult to quit...
There is a physical and mental "withdrawal" when you are removed from toxic relationships.
Chances are the person will NOT leave you alone for some period of time without involving the legal system. The "Rabid Hot Mess" will cloud your judgement and distort past events and ALWAYS finds a way to BLAME YOU!!!

STAY STRONG!!! If you are new to this blog I will repeat the fact... "the first 96hrs are the hardest" I am serious do whatever you have to do to STAY AWAY from "The Rabid Hot Mess" for at least 96hrs with NO verbal, email, text, facebook, twitter communication!!!

Most addicts of strong drugs say that their most vulnerable moments come within 96hrs of stopping "the drug of choice" this is the painful time when they are more likely to give in and use.
The same principle applies to toxic RabiesLove relationships.... you are, for whatever reason, ADDICTED to the person or the relationship.

You WILL physically feel sick... depressed, anxious, you may feel sick to your stomach. These symptoms will pass, and if you STAY STRONG you will actually start to see through the fog and realize that you were lost in the relationship.

LOSS is addiction.
An addict loses themselves in their downward spiral.
Toxic Relationships are the same. There will never be two equals. One person always loses their identity through the process.
One person has to PRETEND that everything is OK. While the other is the star of their own 24hr show.

Withdrawal... is difficult... but if you are strong enough to endure the symptoms you will have a higher success rate of entering the RabiesLove Survivor Group!!
