Boundaries

Hey @NikkiNetik, I hear you. While anything new can feel uncomfortable, boundaries is a whole different concept of uncomfortable, I relate with how it can feel rather self-centered at times and undeniably, quite uncomfortable to practice boundaries with someone, specially when it's something we've never tried before. ❤

A couple of questions if you'd like to answer ofcourse, feel free to skip otherwise.

♡ What made it necessary to set boundaries, in your case?

♡ Is there some reason as well, that makes you feel hesitant to set them, other than the new-ish learning and feeling selfish notion?

♡ In what ways are you trying to set boundaries now?

Ooh also have you checked out the 7 cups self help guide for boundaries? It has some good insight, I feel.

I'm so proud of you for trying something out of your comfort zone, it never is easy, but practicing good boundaries can help us foster better relationships with ourselves and others around, and we definitely deserve that and more, and no, it isn't selfish at all. Sending love.❤

It is uncomfortable at first but as you do it more and more you will see it is not selfish but well worth it for your sanity and well being

@NikkiNetik

I can certainly relate to feeling selfish and being uncomfortable when I put my needs first. I have been a diehard people pleaser all my life and it's very difficult to change at first. I think it is well worth it to have good mental and emotional health. I have had depression battles most of my life and being a people pleaser certainly had a lot to do with it. Don't give up and get support, it's worth it.
