How to fix an unhealthy or toxic relationship?
Determining whether or not the dysfunctional relationship can be fixed is the first step. Making sure that both parties are willing to contribute to the relationship's success is essential to mending the harm and moving on in a way that benefits both of them. If one partner is resistant to altering their destructive habit, there is almost little chance of saving the relationship.
Toxic relationships may indeed evolve. But there's a large if attached to it. Only when both parties are equally dedicated to ending the toxic relationship via plenty of honest, open discussion, introspection, and maybe professional help—both separately and jointly—can a toxic relationship turn around.

When to break up with an unhealthy relationship?
When it's obvious that an unhealthy or toxic relationship is harming your physical, mental, or emotional health, it's critical to end it. Some indicators that it might be time to end the relationship include persistent feelings of worthlessness, sadness, or anxiety brought on by the relationship; frequent arguments or conflicts that never seem to end; abusive, controlling, or manipulative behavior from your partner; feeling cut off from friends, family, or other support networks; losing your sense of self or identity; and persistently failing attempts to make the relationship better. To protect your health and happiness, you should probably think about quitting the relationship if you find yourself betraying your principles, feeling uncomfortable, or unable to be who you truly are.
How to safely end an unhealthy relationship?
It might be difficult to end a toxic relationship, but doing so is a crucial step for your well-being. First, acknowledge and come to terms with the fact that the connection is unhealthy and harmful to your well-being. Seek assistance from dependable family members, friends, or a therapist; they may offer moral support as well as useful guidance. Establish a safe exit strategy, such as staying with friends or family, making emergency contacts, and knowing where to go for assistance, if there is any chance of harm. Be strong and consistent with your limits, and express your choice to stop the relationship clearly and concisely. Put your attention on self-care pursuits that improve your mood, such as physical activity, hobbies, or quality time with loved ones. For assistance in navigating your emotions and developing coping mechanisms, think about consulting a therapist or counselor. To prevent getting dragged back into the relationship cut off or stop communicating with the toxic individual. Remain resilient and never forget that you have a right to a supportive and well-maintained environment. Establish objectives for yourself and work toward reaching them, with an emphasis on turning your life around and discovering happiness outside of the unhealthy relationship.
