Hi,
sometimes, people around us are very toxic. What worked for me in the past was to get my economic self-sufficiency. Once I had my own money and I could make decision on my own life things changed for me. It was very difficult because I have a severe physical disability, but at the end I could make it. I do not know if this is your case, Elektra, so I apologize if what I am saying is stupid or does not have anything to do with your status.
