When do i get to stop making everyone else happy?

You stop making everyone else happy when you take the time and put yourself first. we as humans tend to put everyone else ahead of us and that can take a toll on us emotionally and physically. sometimes putting yourself first is a good thing mentally.

Right now, I know it can be hard to remember and even harder to act on but life isn't about pleasing everyone around you. Life is about making sure that you are safe and happy and in a good place.

The best possible thing you can do for everyone around you is focus on yourself. The universe wants you to be the best you, you can be. So, embrace that. Do what you love, love who you love, and breathe. It's OK to be imperfect. Youll still be loved!

As soon as you're ready. But maybe it's good focus on what you need to be happy and start there - in small ways. Sometimes what others need and what we need aren't that far off.

It's always good to respect other people, but sometimes you need to take a break and put yourself first. It's easier said than done but you have to learn how to say "no" sometimes, rather than meeting everyone's needs. Not only are you being disrespectful to yourself by ignoring your own needs, but sometimes, in order to be there for other people, it's important that YOU'RE happy and healthy,

You don't need to be making people happy, that's not your 'job.' It's about your happiness. I'm not saying be selfish, but I guess instead of thinking you have to make people happy per-say, I'd say you just need to show kindness, respect, and acceptance. With those three, most people should be content with you. But understand, you will never impress or make everyone happy it's just the way it is. But trying to convince yourself that you need to make everyone happy is not something you should burden yourself with. If there are certain people or one person you willingly want to make happy, then that's fine, but it's not something you HAVE to do. Does that make sense?

Other people's happiness does not rest on your shoulders. Wanting to help is a brilliant characteristic, please don't get me wrong. However, carrying the optional responsibility of making others happy is draining, and in doing so you could feel depressed, underappreciated, stressed, or other negative emotions. I used to feel this way, and you should trust me when I state the following; I was emotionally drained (now, helping people on 7cups, I assure you, doesn't drain me). Once I realized that I needed to make MYSELF happy more so than I should others, I did indeed become happier. Try caring for yourself and making a time each day where you treat yourself to a nice bath or doing something that helps you.

It is your choice to make them happy or not, sometimes it is a good thing but if it exhausts you then just try to relax.

You can stop immediately. You have no obligation to sustain anyone else's happiness, and if anyone is making you feel that way then they ought to reevaluate the boundaries of your relationship.

It's all up to you, you're thinking about other people and not yourself. Stop thinking about others and think a little for yourself
