Going low or no contact is about protecting your mental health, breaking cycles of harm, and creating space for healing. People make this choice when boundaries are ignored or abuse continues. You deserve relationships that are safe, respectful, and supportive. If you’re struggling with guilt, remember that you're choosing self-preservation and wouldn't resort to this without good reason. The onus is not on you, how you have been treated to get to this point is not ok. It was them who made the choice to harm, and the choice to not change or repair. Have you ever taken a step back from a family relationship? Share your experience or just drop a ❤️ to remind others they’re not alone. #FamilyEstrangement #NoContact #ToxicParents #NarcissisticParent #CPTSD
