It does no good to bear toxic people who hamper your well-being. Throw them away from your life, says the author.
“You can’t change someone who doesn’t see an issue in their actions.” – Unknown
If a person disregards your feelings, ignores your boundaries, and continues to treat you in a harmful way, they need to go away from your life. -Daniell Koepke
Say ‘No’ to toxic people! It is for your own good, for your own mental peace as for how long will you hold onto someone, thinking they would understand you or be happy seeing you grow as a person. Not everyone you meet in your life will be happy to see you excel. This is a sad fact of life.
Toxic People are the ones, instilled with two unique characteristics, Jealousy, and Judgement. People who are jealous of you are highly toxic, the reason being- they have so many complexes within them, that when they see someone else doing good things, they cannot digest. Over the time they have built up so much of self-hatred, (which they do not realize) that they see bad in every other person around them. From jealousy comes judgement, validation, criticism. They feel that everyone around them is awful and lacking in some or the other way.
We all come across such people in our lives, no matter in what profession we are or which place we belong to. They have this immense power to make your life living hell just by their negative vibes around you.
You know it’s time to cut down such people from your life when you have an unhealthy coping mechanism and you see your self-esteem dwindling. You see yourself going a few steps back from where you traveled this far, you realize you have been unhappy in their presence. You find it very difficult to make them understand and lose your temper.
So identify those toxic elements in your life and learn to detach from them, only to attach yourself to higher aspirations in life.
“Dear Self: Stop re-opening your doors for toxic people, then calling it “seeking closure”. Certain things don’t work out in life and that’s ok” – Reyna Biddy

UP Boards Topper Prachi Nigam was trolled on social media for her facial hair; our obsession with appearance is harsh on young minds.
Prachi Nigam’s photo has been doing the rounds on social media for the right reasons. Well, scratch that- I wish the above statement were true. This 15-year-old girl should ideally be revelling in her spectacular achievement of scoring a whopping 98.05% and topping her tenth-grade boards. But oddly enough, along with her marks, it’s something else that garners more attention – her facial hair.
While the trolls are driving themselves giddy by mocking this girl who hasn’t even completed her school yet, the ones who are taking her side are going one step ahead – they are sharing her photoshopped pictures, sans the facial hair, looking nothing less than a celebrity with captions saying – “Prachi Nigam, ten years later”.
Doctors have already diagnosed her with PCOD in their comments, based on photographic evidence. While we have names for people shamed for their weight – body shaming, for their skin colour- racism, for their age- age shaming, for being a female- sexism, this category of shaming where one faces criticism for their appearance has no name. With that, it also has zero shame attached to it.
