That's the issue. You can't deal with them. And you say you can't remove them from your life. So what can be done? The only answer really is to face it rather than avoid it (avoid negativity as you say). It's to step into the problem, in order to resolve it.

That might include counselling and education; to learn about your self and your triggers, or maybe learn assertiveness, or just acceptance and mindfulness. And it might include speaking up and taking a stand. Speaking to those people, directly and honestly, telling them how you feel, and what you will and won't put up with anymore from them.

I want to add something, in anticipation of one possible reply from you (or others). The statement that one cannot remove such people from their lives depends upon the consciousness perspective from which one is viewing the issue. Take family members: family members can be abusive to each other and get away with it, specifically because we're conditioned to believe you have to allow it and accept it because you don't walk away from family.

I don't hold that belief. It is a conditioned belief. You can in fact walk away, from any abusive relationship. I would even call it your soul duty to yourself, to protect yourself in this way. Family members are still just souls. It is the lower understanding that engages the person. It is the higher understanding that sees the soul. Regardless of who that person is, if the soul in front of me is wreaking havoc in my mental, emotional and psychic reality, it is a soul I must disconnect my life from. Either by taking a stand and setting boundaries, or by dismissing the person from my reality.

there's nothing you can do... if people want to be negative and abusive then only they can stop themselves... you are powerless to do anything about it

Use to have the same emotion, feeling, struggle. Do not take their burden on yourself. You can do nothing but be aware it is mirror.
