[QUOTE="Spiker, post: 522776, member: 102150"] Enduring a toxic relationship and trying to find adaptations to survive it is the definition of codependency. Particularly if you are claiming that exposure to toxic relationships has physical health consequences, which seems plausible, you should not be advising any kind of accommodation with a toxic relationship. If they have correctly been evaluated as toxic relationships (some people see toxic relationships everywhere but are just projecting their own poor relationship skills) then correct boundary skills need to be applied. That means clearly stating what behaviours are unacceptable, and ending the relationship if those behaviours don't cease. There is no relationship that can't be ended if necessary, apart from parent to dependent non-adult child. I didn't see your original post so I don't know what your proposed "emotional defence" mechanism is. But the search for a mechanism to remain in and endure a toxic relationship, is a codependent response.
