How do I stop thinking about my parents' high standards for me?

Follow you're own high standards. Most parents want to see us happy and satisfied with ourselves. Hopefully that'll make them happy as well.

While i was growing up, I constantly felt pressured by my parents to be the perfect child at home as well as at school. After starting to see a therapist about these problems, I discovered that my own goals and self-worth needed to be put ahead of what i thought my parents wanted. I learned to focus on what i wanted to accomplish, instead of what they pushed me to accomplish. Asking yourself what you want your own standards to be can be very helpful in a situation like this.

Every parent just wants their children to succeed. Unfortunately others become overly competitive and sometimes personalities tend to clash also. Just explain to them you understand that they want you to succeed and you love and appreciate them for it. But you want to do you're own thing and there's no reason you still can't be those things that they want doing what you wish to do. Sometimes parents know best but sometimes you have to do what's better for you to. It's all about a little give and take. Good luck in whatever you do!!! :D

I find it important to prioritize your own happiness and well-being first above anyone else. They cannot live for you or through you.

Your parents only want the best for you. Just remember this is your life, you can't live up to what they want you live up to.

My parents have very high standards of me, but after a while I realised that I wont always be a ble to live up to these expectations and it is better for me to go for more acheivable goals that I set myself, as I am the only one that knows what I am truly capable of, and my parents are just going to have to accept that.

Have your own standards for yourself. NEVER live up to other people's standards because that's not you. That's them.

You are responsible for your own happiness. What you do and the choices that you make are the ones that you are gonna live with when your parents are no longer around. So always remember to do things the way you want them to be, because in the end you will be the one living through it.

well first of all, you need to know that you are enough and keep in mind that you do the best you can. you need to "know" because this is the truth and even though you don't believe that right now, i just need you to know.

Your parents just truly want what is best for you and sometimes they may go overboard. Try to understand that's where they are coming from and do your best. However, at the same time work towards accomplishing your hopes and dreams
