disowning my toxic family was one of the best things i ever did for myself.
it was Liberating~! i was free finally to re-invent myself, and avoid those emotional rocks which are as hurtful as any stone~

what i was fortunate in, was doing my agonizing before i cut them off, and not having to do it after~ i highly recommend that you come to some sort of determination BEFORE you take any final steps,, so that you won't have to clutter your new start with old baggage~

best wishes~
