If you had a friend for a while, but feel something is off, chances are your friend might actually be toxic friends. Toxic friendships are actually more common than you think. Toxic friends may end up betraying you when you need them most. If you are wondering if all my friends are toxic, then this video may be for you. However, if none of these signs are there, then maybe, you have a real friend. Real friends are hard to find, so treasure them when you do have them. Real friends will look after your mental health when you need them most.

DISCLAIMER: If you can relate to any of these signs, please do not take this feedback as an attack on your character. This video was meant to be a self-improvement guide for those of you who have been feeling a little stuck."
