Emotional healing from toxic parents may require time and patience from "summary" of Toxic Parents by Susan Forward

Healing from the wounds inflicted by toxic parents is not a quick or easy process. It takes time, patience, and a willingness to confront painful emotions head-on. The scars left behind by toxic parents run deep, affecting every aspect of a person's life - from their self-esteem to their ability to form healthy relationships. In order to truly heal, one must first acknowledge the impact that toxic parents have had on their life. This may involve facing difficult truths about the past and coming to terms with the fact that the people who were supposed to love and protect them failed to do so. It can be a painful and emotional process, but it is a necessary step on the path to healing. Once the impact of toxic parents has been acknowledged, the process of healing can begin. This may involve therapy, support groups, or other forms of professional help. It may also involve setting boundaries with toxic parents, limiting contact with them, or cutting them out of one's life entirely. Each person's journey to healing will be unique, and there is no one-size-fits-all solution. Healing from toxic parents is not a linear process. There will be ups and downs, moments of progress and moments of regression. It is important to be patient with oneself and to allow oneself the time and space needed to heal. It is also important to remember that healing is a journey, not a destination. It is an ongoing process that requires constant work and self-reflection.
  1. Healing from toxic parents is possible. With time, patience, and a commitment to facing difficult emotions head-on, it is possible to break free from the cycle of toxicity and build a happier, healthier life for oneself. The journey may be long and difficult, but the rewards are well worth it.
