 Hey what's with you guys welcome back to my channel if you're new here. Hi hello I'm Lydia and today I thought we could talk about cutting people out. So why is it important to cut people out? It's important to maintain your mental health. It's important that you are not around toxic people. But most of all it's to make sure that you are in a safe space yourself. So why might you cut someone out? Maybe they are engaging in toxic behaviors. It's triggering you. Or they're being detrimental to your mental health. Or maybe it's just a toxic friendship that you're not getting what you need out of that friendship. Cutting people out is never an easy task to do. It doesn't matter who you are or what the situation is. It's a dreaded task to get to a point to you and write that message or pick up the phone or make an arrangement to meet the person. Saying goodbye is hard. Cutting people out is never an easy thing to do. And it's not something you want to do. If in the day the person is your friend. But sometimes you just have to be around while we eat. Cutting people out is certainly as amusing. I'd say it's one of the hardest things to do. Because you feel guilt. Cutting people out is not an easy thing to do. Because it's just saying goodbye to a person. And you're alive. And you know it's gonna upset them. It'll probably even upset you. I mean for me I've been in situations where I've had to cut people out. And it was always because they were encouraging bad behaviors in me. Cutting people out can be one of the hardest things you have to do in your life. It can make you feel like you're a bad person. In reality you just have to please yourself first. And yes that can mean saying goodbye to some friendship. But overall you don't want to hurt the person by cutting them out. So how do you cut someone out? I'd say face to face is bad. But you can do it out of the phone or over text. When I say cut people out I don't mean ghosting them. Ghosting people is a horrible thing to do. All I want you to know is that it's okay to cut people out. And there's nothing wrong with you if you need to cut someone out. You have to do what you don't need to do for your own safety. And for your own well-being. Stay safe and stay strong. And I'll see you guys in the next video. Peace.
