"Leaving a toxic relationship is like breathing again after being underwater for too long. My experience was painful but liberating. At first, the loneliness and fear were overwhelming. But little by little, I began to rediscover who I was before that relationship. I surrounded myself with people who truly valued me, I immersed myself in activities I was passionate about, and I started working on my self-esteem. If you are in this situation, I want you to know that there is hope. Life after a toxic relationship can be beautiful and full. It is a journey towards self-discovery and self-acceptance. Give yourself time and be gentle with yourself. You deserve love, respect and happiness." - Martha
