Hate to say this, but much of these points apply to a family member who is suffering from Alzheimer's or Dementia. The person may not be exhibiting toxic behavior, but instead might be suffering memory difficulties. I have personally experienced the later. Obviously if the family member is young it is toxic behavior, but for older relations you would have to be much more careful.

whoa this hits close to home;; but nah, i can't cut him off. it's not right. he suffers more than he makes me suffer. he's already got a laundry list of disorders and mental condiitons. if i cut him off, who knows what that'll do to him.

I have cut family members out of my life and it feels much better

no one has to suffer for the other to be happy we gotta be a bit selfish for our own mental health

One side of my family is like this and I've pretty much cut them out of my life.

 

The other side I love tho.

I've kind of already done this with one side of the family and keep very little contact with them. Sooner or later I might end up cutting off more.

Because family isnt everything to everyone. If they are toxic, drop em. Family or not you deserve to be happy.

I'm looking to cut my toxic mother out of my life once I move out for good. I'm already not on speaking terms with her and avoiding her around the house (currently living at home since I don't have enough financial means to move out yet)

Of course it's okay to cut out toxic people from your life. Family isn't an exception. I don't speak to one side of my family because they are terrible people. It helps that they moved across the country. There are others I need to distance myself from, but I'm not in a good position to do that yet.
