Sometimes you need to break free from old shackles to be honest with yourself. To be happy.
Find the courage to leave when nothing is holding you back!

These words kept coming back to me as I reflected on my life and felt a huge emptiness inside me. I had been in pain for so long that it seemed like I would never see the light at the end of this endless tunnel.
With some manic stubbornness, I held on to a man who made me unhappy and was very toxic. After all, I believed that I would be able to change him and that our love would overcome all adversity and misunderstandings. It seemed that just a little bit more, and the storm would end, the sun would rise.
I was just afraid to leave. I was afraid that I would not be able to find someone like him. I deceived myself that our relationship was true love. It was all a lie. Our love was toxic, and deep down I knew that I needed to run away from this man as fast as possible.
Of course, I understood that if I left, it would be very hard for me. After all, I invested so much of my love, warmth, time, and energy into him that I simply could not imagine that we would ever part and not be together. In addition, I get very attached to people, which makes the situation even worse.
But I didn’t deserve such a relationship. It was very unfair! I felt unhappy and empty, and my health and well-being worsened. All this became the reason that one day I decided to cut him off from me forever and finally stop this agony.
I decided to face my fear, which had paralyzed any attempts to change anything all this time. I internally accepted a life in which he would not be. Now I am alone, and I can say with complete confidence that I have never felt so calm and peaceful. I have found happiness, and I have become self-sufficient.
If you, like me before, feel that nothing is holding you back, leave. Because staying in a relationship that does not satisfy you emotionally is even more painful.
Find the courage and bravery to do it. I know you have it, you just have to decide. And don’t go back under any circumstances.
Walk away from everyone and everything that means nothing to you anymore. Listen to your intuition; it never lies, telling you that it is time to let go of what has long been gone.
Find the courage to start your life from scratch. Set yourself a goal. Find what will make you happy. And move forward. You will achieve it!
You need to break free from old shackles, to be honest with yourself. And believe me, it’s worth it. You’ll see for yourself soon! Because in reality, it’s all very simple. Just find the courage. Just leave. And just be happy!
