Toxic people do toxic things.

They don't care if they hurt you.

Empathetic people care too much.

About people that are around them.

My Mother. My Husband. My Friend. My Self.

Part autobiographical, toxic/empathy takes an exploration of toxic people throughout life.

Their traits, the things they did, and the authors own pain, experiences, and healing.

All done through poetry.

The authors first published work, this book is a sometimes confronting, delving into toxic people and toxic behaviours, displaying both hurt and resilience, with a no holds barred approach to themes of domestic abuse, neglect, emotional devaluation and mental cruelty. It explores the confusion and anguish of the empathetic half and the healing processes and understanding when emerging from the other side.

I am the phoenix. And I am free.

Note: This book contains subjects pertaining to abuse, sexual themes, and domestic violence and may be unsuitable for readers under 18.

Reviews for Toxic/Empathy

"""Honestly, wow! I've just finished it - I couldn't put it down once I started, I couldn't bring myself to stop reading. Definitely shocking and heartbreaking, some parts similar to things I've been through myself so I could absolutely relate"" - Jamie C"
