Deprecator-Belittler
This nasty person will consistently put you down. They will mock you, implying that whatever you say conveys your thoughts, views, or desires is ridiculous or stupid. A toxic partner will make fun of you across from your friends and relatives. This type of poisonous person will frequently tell you that you are fortunate to have them as a companion, that no one else would love you.

The Toxic Partner with a Terrible Attitude
We constantly hear from clients who have given up attempting to discuss or dispute their relationship as they become enraged or lose their temperament, then refuse to connect with them in any substantial manner for days. Intimidation is a common tactic used by toxic partners to exert control.
These people frequently have a volatile and erratic temper. Their companions frequently describe stepping on eggshells throughout the destructive relationship, never wondering what may set him off. The victim’s emotional and financial health suffers due to the continuous need for alertness and the uncertainty surrounding what will provoke an angry response.
The Instigator of Guilt
Of course, a poisonous connection can develop between acquaintances or relatives and their grown children as well as between two persons in a committed partnership.

For illustration, your father may phone to express his regret that you did not attend a Family meal with your mom.
A guilt inducer can manipulate you not only through creating guilt but also by momentarily eliminating guilt if you do whatever they ask. For guilt-prone people, something or someone that relieves guilt is tremendously appealing and possibly addicting; therefore, the guilt inducer has a powerful control mechanism.
The Over reactor
You are interacting with an over reactive person if you have ever wanted to convince a considerable partner that you are disappointed, hurt, or furious on something they did and ended up taking charge of their sadness, hurt, or fury instead. Rather than seeking support, you find yourself soothing them. Furthermore, you feel horrible about yourself after being selfish enough to bring up something that irritates your companion.
