When a relationship ends, it’s okay to Grieve the loss (cry, be angry, feel sad) Practice self-compassion (it was not your fault) Engage in radical self-care (daily and often) Make a list affirming who you are (I am a loving person, etc.) Process what you learned about yourself as a result of the toxic relationship Determine how you would like to show up in your present and future relationships Forgive yourself for the things you allowed to happen in the relationship Forgive yourself for not leaving sooner
