This video answers the questions: How can you tell if you are in a toxic relationship? What are the signs of a toxic relationship? How is a bad relationship different than a toxic relationship? Can toxic relationships heal? What is the association between toxic relationships and narcissism? Toxic relationships are destructive, emotionally damaging, and place a relationship on a downward trajectory. I provide seven sign (categories) of relationship toxicity along with several examples for each item.

The seven signs (or categories) are:
1. Arguments
2. Negative feelings
3. False accusations
4. Unhelpful personality characteristics and temperament
5. Nonproductive communication style
6. Excessive fantasy
7. Manipulation
