#1 Toxic people are difficult to identify, because their toxicity is not easy to discern. They are often good at hiding it, and they can be difficult to deal with because we’re always dealing with a two-to-five-year-old in an adult’s body.

#2 Toxic people cannot tolerate consideration of others. When trying to have a conversation with them, they are self-referential rather than self-reflective. When you share something about yourself with such people, they immediately turn the account into a story about them.

#3 Covertly toxic people are those who are masters at feigning innocence, playing the victim, and claiming that life has treated them better than it has treated others. Their emotional abuse is done in a secretive manner that is difficult to spot and address.

#4 The majority of people, especially those who are healthy, assume too much responsibility for the wrongs in their lives because they want to be the first to own their mistakes when it is necessary. But a toxic person will never take enough responsibility.
