In the wake of the start of the holiday season, I think it's time to talk about the use of no-contact.

Save children and dependents, NOBODY is entitled to your time and presence. Yes, that means your family.

Therefore, you can choose to go no-contact with someone for ANY reason. The vast majority of people do it because they have already tried to work things out. If you're reading this, it's safe to assume you've attempted that for a while and it hasn't worked.

Your mental health affects your physical health. Going no-contact can be done for survival, to keep your peace, and to establish firm boundaries around how others treat you.

If you made this decision, read the following very carefully: you are NOT a bad person for doing so.

Abusive/toxic family members will try to gaslight you into thinking you're an awful human being for making this choice. Remind yourself that people that want the best for you will never try to make you feel that way.

Your presence is a gift. Your time is finite. You have every reason to share it with only the people and things that you think are worthwhile. Period.

You are not alone. I see you. ✨
