It’s 3am and I’m up thinking about the importance of setting boundaries.
A lot went wrong in my childhood, I literally had to figure things out on my own, I’m still figuring out certain things but one thing I’m sure about is setting boundaries!
Setting boundaries shows people exactly how you want to be treated, if you don’t have boundaries people will treat you how they think you deserve to be treated.
Know yourself, know your triggers and how to deal with them , have standards, eliminate people that compromise your peace, put yourself first all the damn time because when push comes to shove people will always chose themselves 🤞🏼
The best thing I’ve come to accepting as a recovering people pleaser is that saying ”no I don’t want to do this because it doesn’t make me feel good” is a good enough reason for me, if it’s not for you then I’m sorry you feel that way✌️
This might make people that benefited from your people pleasing uncomfortable, but don’t stop, you matter and your mental health comes first because it affects every part of your life.
