So, what happens when you're surrounded by toxic people all the time and you're only option is to be anti-social, but by being anti-social and fostering a healthy self supportive attitude you actually become toxic to the majority of toxic assholes that is your community ?

Just posted something similar. Am also wondering the same thing.
Think we might be "empaths" who get noticed and then used by attention-starved narcissistic types. I used to listen to people when they were stressed out over something, but then they can't stop, and then they drag me down with them emotionally.

If you smell shit everywhere you go, check your own shoe.
If everyone you know is “toxic,” do some introspection… are your perceptions of them accurate and compassionate? Are you in an environment that’s unhealthy and causing relationship problems? Is everyone causing problems on their own, or are certain people causing drama everyone else reacts to? Do you need to improve your own communication skills, boundaries, or self-awareness? Etc.

Yeah, maybe that's exactly what the fuck I just said.
... and what have we here, a toxic fucking asshole telling me I'm the toxic one.
Imagine that.

You are definitely not the toxic one for sure

Sure thing, Pee Farts. I'll get right on living up to your glorious standards.

And what standards would those be?

What do you think you should do?

Are you seriously suggesting that I start a cult where everyone lives exclusively on potato-tomato hybrids (?)
That's incredibly irresponsible of you.
I'm not mad. I'm just disappointed.
