How Stoics Silence Toxic People Without Saying a Word | Stoic Wisdom

Toxic people don’t just drain you in the moment – they live in your head long after the conversation ends. Stoic philosophers like Marcus Aurelius, Seneca and Epictetus understood this centuries ago. Their solution wasn’t clever comebacks or winning every argument. It was something much quieter – and much more powerful: withdrawing the one thing toxic people can’t function without… your reaction.
