In life, we constantly meet toxic people. Whether it's just a short meeting with a stranger or a long conversation with a closer person. The reason some people like it when others feel bad is the lack of self-development and internal conflicts. They simply lack awareness of themselves and others. Toxic people poison life for themselves and others. There are various ways to protect against the effects of toxic people.
Instruction manual
one
Move in the direction of positive
The reality is that you can never completely block negative people in your life. But, instead of completely ignoring them, just change your attitude when interacting with them. The idea is to increase time with positive people and spend less time with negative people, whose influence seriously harms you. When you focus on people who are pleasant to you, the mechanism of attraction begins to work: what you focus on is automatically attracted to your life.

Sleep with thoughts
The goal of toxic people is to challenge you in the process of a collision, so the best you can do is not give them what you want and leave as soon as possible. When making a decision in a state of emotion, you can do something that you can regret later. Set yourself up for what you need to sleep with these thoughts one night before deciding what to do. When someone knocks out of emotional balance, your energy is very low. As a result, you make your brain make an important decision without being rational and relaxed. If you received an email that upset and angered you, never reply immediately. Sleep with it one night and think over your answer the next day, with a clear mind. Most likely, you will be very glad that you did not send your answer yesterday. Whenever possible, always respond in a calm and positive state, this will greatly increase your chances of success.
3
Live by your own rules
The reality is that people can always find mistakes in your actions. It's easy to sit back and criticize what someone else is doing. But the secret is that they evaluate you based on their own rules, believing that they know how things should be. But these are only their rules, not yours. Toxic people often speak down, forcing you to believe that you are doing something wrong. Remember: this person’s point of view is only his own. There are no two identical people. Therefore, if someone considers you not smart enough, it does not mean at all that it is true.
Often the perception and point of view of this person is formed by previous experience.

The problem is in them, not in you
Realize that this is actually a problem for toxic people, not yours. They are used to condemning not only you, but all the people around. When you accept this thought, you will realize that this is their true problem. And don't let them hurt you anymore. You just got caught in the net of their unsolved problems of the past. Most failures in life are based on the inability to understand oneself. Understand what you really need to be happy. They chose the easy way in life and hurt others, instead of going their own way and spending energy not on suppressing others, but on their own development. A person who is completely in harmony with himself will never be hostile to another person.
5
Allow yourself to be imperfect
When you feel that someone expects perfection from you, know this person will cause you problems. The reason is that each of us who spends time on our personal development knows that no one will ever be perfect. The more we develop, the more we realize that we are imperfect. The more we try to be imperfect and fail, the wiser and more powerful we become. Big mistakes are big lessons. Among successful people are not found ideal. On the contrary, they are very far from perfect. Think you want perfection or happiness and success?

Let people go
Unfortunately, sometimes you find that people close to you, as well as people you love, behave like energy vampires. And if after each meeting with them you feel exhausted, then just let these people out of your life. Learn to let go of people who don't make a positive contribution to your life in the long run. Life is too short, so spend maximum time with people who inspire you, make you happy and make you manifest a better version of yourself. Shorten your time with toxic people and remember that no external force can change your attitude except yourself. Always remember why you do what you do. You have infinite potential and all you have to do is release it.
