Understanding the differences between the silent treatment and no contact can help you navigate your relationships with toxic family members.
Let's explore these topics:
✅ It is natural to have many moments of questioning ourselves around no contact because we never want to be like our toxic family members.
✅ The difference between the silent treatment and no contact comes down to intent.
✅ Signposts to when silence is being deployed for abuse.
✅ When we go silent we do so to stay silent. We have no want, need, or desire to hurt our toxic family members by toying with them in any way.
✅ How do we know we’re not the bad guy (toxic person) our family accuses us of being?
✅ What is going on when our family members call us the toxic ones for going no contact?
