YOU GAIN WEIGHT<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Being in a toxic relationship leads to lower levels of relationship satisfaction which can lead to passive-aggressive eating behaviours and sleep problems, thereby leading to weight gain.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>2. INCREASED STRESS LEVELS<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Being in a toxic relationship leads to lots of disputes with your partner over money, household chores etc thereby increasing your stress levels.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>3. AFFECTS YOUR SLEEP<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Being in a toxic relationship has been linked with poorer sleep and not sleeping well also increases the relationship problems thereby causing more problems.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>4. ANXIETY<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Having problems in your relationship can actually lead to anxiety.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>5. DEPRESSION<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Being in a toxic relationship can increase the risk of clinical depression. According to a research, women are six times more likely to be clinically depressed if their marriages were falling apart or their husbands cheated.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>6. INCREASED BLOOD PRESSURE<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Being in an unhappy relationship can have a negative impact on your blood pressure. According to a 2008 Brigham Young University study, people who are unhappily married tend to have higher blood pressure than singles.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>7. HEARTACHE<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The dangers of being in a toxic relationship might have a negative effect on you even after you leave that relationship. According to a 2011 Columbia University study, thinking about an ex can have similar effects on the brain as physical pain.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">That&#8217;s not all. A painful breakup can lead to a condition known as broken heart syndrome which is a temporary enlargement of the heart. Broken heart syndrome has symptoms mimicking a heart attack.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">It&#8217;s important you choose your partner wisely.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong><em>Phil<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>It&#8217;s better to remain single&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":24291,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_mi_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0},"categories":[79],"tags":[2824,2829,2825,2739],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.elcrema.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/28130"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.elcrema.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.elcrema.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.elcrema.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.elcrema.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=28130"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/www.elcrema.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/28130\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":28133,"href":"https:\/\/www.elcrema.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/28130\/revisions\/28133"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.elcrema.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/24291"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.elcrema.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=28130"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.elcrema.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=28130"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.elcrema.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=28130"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
