Quotes:

Dr. Lillian Glass, a communication and psychology expert, defines a toxic person as "anyone who is abusive, unsupportive, or unhealthy emotionally—someone who basically brings you down more than up."

"Toxic people are manipulative. Their modus operandi is to get people to do what they want them to do. It's all about them. They use other people to accomplish whatever their goal happens to be. Forget what you want; this is not about equality in a relationship—far from it," says Abigail Brenner, M.D., a psychiatrist and fellow of the American Psychiatric Association.
