Cutting people out of my life

Contuning from the last post, I have decided to completley cut those people out of my life. I will be mutual with them, but nothing more. After a long talk with my therapist I realized the over the past year I have gotten rid of so much negativity in my life, including negative people. All negative people do is bring you down. It's as if they are attacking you and want you to stoop down to their level and be somewhat of a 'bully' as well. I have worked so hard especially in the last 6 months on ending friendships and other kinds of relationships because of the negativity. I have worked so hard to be a postivie person.

Honestly, I always thought I was a positive person. It wasn't until one day when someone told me that before I was diagnosed, I was a mean, angry, hateful person. That really struck me. I didn't see myself that way until someone told me. So becoming positive has been my main goal in therapy along with contuning to heal.

I will not have the negative around me anymore. All they want to do, whether they know it or not, is bring me down. I don't want that. I don't want to be seen as a negative person. I want to be seen as a  positive person. I know that cutting these people (even though they are close in the family tree) out of my life will make me a better person.

It's not as easy as it all sounds, but it is the right decision for me.
