“A few years ago I went through an emotionally abusive relationship that ended up being physically abusive, too. I was being held against my will in a house we lived in,” shares Nadya. The best way to process trauma for me is via creating art, that’s why we wrote TOXIC with Dorian and Dylan. Besides music, I use other tools to convince others to put their mental health first, train themselves to recognize emotional violence, and leave abusive relationships ASAP.”
