Being conscious of who you spend your time around is essential for your self-care. Here are some toxic people you can go ahead and cut out this year.
Read...Those who know and love people with depression usually want nothing other than to help. But during the times I've been depressed, even the most well-intentioned efforts to help often backfired.
