If you're receiving emotional abuse in your relationships, the best you can do is realize you're not responsible for their behavior.

This is just the first step. But, like satori, stream entry, losing your virginity or whathaveya, it's the start of something different.

Step fully into the space where you are only responsible for yourself. It may feel cramped at first, but it's far better in the long run.

(I say emotional abuse not because it doesn't also apply for other forms of abuse, but because those require other solutions also.)
