India, March 26 -- We all know that one friend who turns your insecurities into a joke. Or sends ten-minute trauma-dump voice notes but forgets to ask how you're doing. Or keeps giving backhanded compliments: "Your weight gain suits you." It's fairly easy to tell they're toxic, because every interaction leaves you feeling drained, unheard and a little icky. But clocking that the toxic one in the group chat is actually... you? Not so much. Our brains are wired to see ourselves as "a good person". It's easy to justify our own below-the-belt jokes as "that's just my sense of humour", or our selfishness as "I was going through something, dude."
