A quick note to any person who has to deal with one or more toxic people around him. I know that it is really difficult to have around you or even live with people who aren't by your side. It can get exhausting trying to justify yourself to people who have proven they lack the depth and wisdom needed to actually understand you. Like being in an enemy field. An unhealthy environment is only holding us back. They only create frustration, annoyance and emotional distress, to say the least.
There is almost never logic in any of their actions against you. They are influenced by the enemy or negative energies and every small talk can end up in an argument or a fight. Always think of this when you have to interact with them. You cannot control any person physically, but you can control your own actions. Boundaries and limitations are something crucial. And at some situations, physical boundaries may not be possible, but mental and emotional boundaries from your side can protect you.
I have found that the only subjects you can talk with these people without turn into an argument or anything causing unpleasant feelings is talking about weather, movies, sports and food. Never about feelings, goals, and anything that can be used against you. The less these people know about you, the better. By not letting them know stuff, they can't influence it. Brainstorming ways to change the subject, or ending the conversation or even leaving if necessary can prevent the situation from going off limit. These are some physical solutions for dealing with toxic people and preventing the situation from going out of control. If anyone has any other means that worked for him/her, we could gather them here.
And as for spiritual solutions, of course detaching is mandatory. Binding can also be a solution when the situation is out of control.
