Read the passage below and choose A, B, C or D to answer each question from 41 to 45.
A toxic relationship undermines your emotional, psychological, and sometimes physical well-being. It can occur in friendships, romantic partnerships, or families and is marked by feeling unsupported, misunderstood, or demeaned. When the negative consistently outweighs the positive, your health is at risk, so identifying toxic patterns early is crucial.
Recognising toxicity helps you protect yourself and seek healthier connections. Physical or verbal abuse is obvious, but psychological abuse, such as persistent criticism, isolation, blame, or guilt, is subtler. Frequent disrespect and lack of appreciation often reveal the toxic nature of a relationship.
Toxic relationships harm mental and physical well-being, lowering self-esteem and energy. They can cause depression, anger, fatigue, and stress-related health issues such as digestive problems, weakened immunity, and sleep disturbances.
The list of toxic behaviours is long, but the most damaging patterns in a relationship can be categorised depending on the type of effect these behaviours can have on others. One of these categories is “behavioural control”, which includes strategies employed by individuals to influence and dominate others to achieve personal gain. This can be obtained either through controlling and forceful measures, such as aggressive behaviours, or through subtly shaping the thoughts, feelings, and behaviours of others by lying or bending the truth. This is a form of manipulation – known as gaslighting – in which facts are changed or withheld to suit the toxic person’s interest, causing you to question your own senses and thoughts.
Another category of toxic behaviours is ‘emotional impact’, which is determined by how individuals experience and react to emotional signals, whether they be positive or negative. It refers to the effects of emotional experiences on thoughts, feelings, and behaviour, which can range from positive emotions like happiness to negative ones like sadness or fear. This category is relevant especially for those who deal with past traumas or insecurities. These individuals are considered vulnerable as they may struggle to set limits, express needs, or protect themselves from harm, making them more prone to exploitation by others. Identifying and dealing with your weaknesses is a good starting point to build up your ability to bounce back emotionally.
In today’s digital world, toxic behaviour extends beyond face-to-face interactions, affecting mental and emotional health. Cyberbullying, online harassment, and controlling tactics thrive on popular platforms. Simply setting boundaries may not be enough; being mindful of content, verifying information, and curating positive online spaces can help reduce exposure to toxicity.
